Hi, I'm looking to see if I can expand my faith by hearing about some word-of-mouth miracles and taking them seriously. I will take you seriously. If you would post a short synopsis about your miracle(s) that would be greatly appreciated.
For my miracle, I have to say that a pastor at my...
But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.
(1 Corinthians 12:31)
Most everyone paying attention know who owns what in V-31. Dividing it into two sections, A & B, section A is now the subject of the purported end of our involvement of the recorded “gifts”...
I've noticed some Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and Anglicans & Episcopals wishing that there was more activity on the OO board, so I decided to shift some of my own blogging and other posting internet posting impulses in that direction.
For this thread I present what probably is the most...
I'd like to have a cordial discussion about miraculous healing, but we'll have to see how this goes. :)
As an opening question, do you think healing is always God's will? I'm not asking if it always happens. They answer to that question would be rather obvious. But as we know "it is not God's...
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom His favor rests!" (Luke 2:14). That is what the angels were singing when Jesus was born. God's plan for the salvation of mankind continued to move forward as His son who is to be the savior of all who believe was about to begin His...
Who We Choose to Be Our Source? Matthew 16:8-12
In Matthew 16:8-12 Jesus was trying to show them, who is the source of their provision, by mentioning to them the two occasions, when he provided food for thousands of people, by a miracle.
The reason Jesus mentioned those to occasions of...
As Christians we should be aware that there are certain spiritual realities that may affect the efficacy of our works. One of these is unbelief, and I do not mean our own but that of others. The unbelief of others hampers our spiritual gifts. Even the Lord Jesus Christ was subject to this...
Paul only in one place teaches the church as the Body of Christ, it is not Christ's body in any mystical sense but as a highly practical and functional body in relation to the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Miracles, healing, helps and administration, prophesying and teaching, exorcism and...
It is often said in the non-Christian community that prayer merely is a way of expressing hope or good intentions, or to create optimism or positivity. But that it does not actually "work."
In other words, prayer does not actually manifest tangible effects in healing or restoration.
Does...
I'm having a bit of a problem with the idea of miracles. Not that I don't think they exist but with the concept of them. I was listening to the Soul Detox sermons and he was talking about how part of relieving the burdens of the soul that weigh you down is to remember the miracles in your life...
An Original Work / June 28, 2018
When miracles don’t happen
Exactly when we hoped,
And things go on as normal;
We don’t know how to cope;
When troubles, disappointments,
Are foll’wing us around,
And sadness starts to linger,
And gladness turns to frowns;
When all the world around us
Is...
This is the destiny of the church, to be the agent of the miraculous to the world. To be the birthplace of miracles, signs, and wonders! To be the conveyor and purveyor of God's power to a depressed world! This is our destiny!
‘And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall...
The words of men may be contested but the power of God cannot be denied
When this power is at work it produces signs and wonders. In Acts 3 we see Peter and John boast in the power of God as they told that man silver and gold we have none, 'but such AS I HAVE give i unto thee, in the name of...
I come to you as a fellow Christian. My mother is coming out of a coma and I acknowledge the blessings and power of the one living God. Thank you Lord for all the good things in life! Let no one tell you God isn't good. He is good beyond all other things! I can only pray she gets better and...
When I talked to God the first time, and I was baptized in the Holy Spirit, I decided I was gonna follow God for the rest of my life, no matter what. It took me a few months to understand what that meant, because I had absolutely no previous understanding of the Bible. I had followed nearly...
Dear all,
I would like to share this beautiful video of an example of how we organize a group prayer for the healing of bodies and minds in roman-catholic Paris-based church Saint Nicolas des Champs.

Have you ever gotten to the point in your life where you felt like you were at the end of your rope? Everything you tried seemed to just blow up in your face. Nothing went like you had hoped, or even as you had planned. And, you felt as though you just kept coming up against brick walls.
Your...
Christian Topics-Faith, Hope, Circumstances-Romans 4:18-21
Believing God’s promises in faith, for a change in our circumstances, is not a denial of what is happening in our circumstances, and is not a denial of the obvious facts.
We can see clearly, that Abraham was aware of the fact, that the...
