Key Scripture: Ephesians 3:20 “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,”
Welcome to the May of Miracles! At our core, we are a church that believes in the impossible becoming reality. We don’t just believe that God can do miracles, we believe that He still does. And not just small miracles, but exceeding, abundant, above-and-beyond miracles. Our God is limitless in power, unmatched in authority, and unconfined by the natural world.
What Is a Miracle?
By definition, a miracle is “a surprising and welcome event that is not explainable by natural or scientific laws and is therefore considered to be the work of a divine agency.” In other words, it’s when heaven invades earth.
As humans, we’re limited by nature. Even the most brilliant doctors and advanced technology eventually reach a point where they have to say, “There’s nothing more we can do.” That’s exactly where God steps in!
Exceeding Abundance: God’s Supernatural Capacity
Both Charles Spurgeon and Adam Clarke describe God’s power in overwhelming terms. Spurgeon calls it “so abundantly that it exceeds measure and description,” while Clarke says God can do “superabundantly above the greatest abundance.”
That’s more than enough for any situation you’re facing.
So ask yourself:
- What have you been praying for?
- What have you been hoping for?
- What have you been dreaming about?
Now, understand this: whatever it is, God can do more. Infinitely more. That’s the promise of Ephesians 3:20.
A Miracle of Provision: The Widow at Zarephath
To illustrate the miraculous, let’s look at the story in 1 Kings 17:8–16. God tells the prophet Elijah to go to Zarephath and find a widow who will feed him. The problem? She’s preparing what she believes is her and her son’s last meal before they die.
Her situation was bleak. She had no logical reason to believe there could be more flour or oil coming. But God doesn’t operate on logic, He operates on faith.
Elijah challenged her to take a step of faith. He told her to make him bread first, then feed herself and her son. She obeyed, and what followed was a miracle of provision. Her containers never ran dry. God’s promise sustained them until the drought ended.
The lesson? Miracles often begin when we step beyond what we can see and act on faith.
God Is Still the Miracle Worker
- He’s still the provider who multiplies resources.
- He’s still the healer who restores what medicine cannot.
- He’s still the way maker who opens doors no one else can.
And the greatest miracle of all? Salvation. It’s something we can’t do by ourselves. But you have to do what you can do, and God will do what you cannot do. He transforms lives.
Closing Thoughts: Your Miracle May Be One Step Away
This May, we invite you to believe again. Pray again. Hope again. Dream again. Because the God who can do exceedingly, abundantly above all we ask or think is still working today.
And your miracle? It may just be one step of faith away.
