Dear Family,
Today is Friday, April 10, 2026. Today is Day 6 of Week 1 in our Count to Pentecost.
As we consider some of the many signs, exorcisms, raising the dead, healings and other types of miraculous works Jesus did while He was Human, as His disciples, we will be growing in grace and knowledge of Who and What God is. The Apostle John emphasized that Jesus did many miracles that He was not able to write about.
John 20:30-31 (30) And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book. (31) But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through His name.
Jesus’ miracles served God’s purposes, including showing Jesus’ glory. Jesus began doing miracles at the beginning of His public ministry. John wrote that the first miracle Jesus did was to manifest His glory. When the disciples witnessed miracles He performed, they believed on Him.
John 2:11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth His glory; and His disciples believed on Him.
We continue to experiences various miraculous works. And, that will continue to happen in God’s timing. The Word promises more to come. Jesus’ works showed God’s love and Jesus’ compassion, and they met the real needs of people. We learn from the Apostle John that Jesus promised that His disciples would do greater works than He did while on earth. How is that to be accomplished?
John 14:10-13 (10) I speak not of Myself: but the Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works. (11) Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me: or else believe Me for the very works’ sake. (12) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father. (13) And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
All miraculous works we will ever experience begin and end with Jesus’ doing the will of His Father. Jesus said the miraculous works He did were done by the Father, and Jesus will continue to do them now that He is in heaven with His Father. Greater works are not only possible; they will be done.
