Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.
Acts 2:43
Have you ever been left in awe by something truly extraordinary? It’s that jaw-dropping moment when you can’t help but feel a rush of awe. The early Christians experienced this with all the wonders and signs. These miracles were not magic tricks. They were powerful, undeniable acts that showed God was really among them, backing up the apostles’ messages with divine credentials.
Imagine the impact of witnessing a miracle after hearing about Jesus’ resurrection. Wouldn’t that rocket your faith to new heights? That’s exactly what happened back then. These spectacular signs weren’t just for show. They fortified the believers’ faith and united them even more closely as a community, sharing in the awe of what they witnessed.
We might not see miracles in the same way today, but God’s work hasn’t stopped. Whether it’s an answered prayer, a changed life, or even the complex beauty of nature, these are all modern-day signs of His power and love. Taking time to notice and talk about these experiences can boost our faith.
These stories of past and present wonders do more than strengthen our belief. They bind us to a long history of faith, reminding us that we’re part of something immense—a narrative of God’s engagement with humanity brimming with miraculous moments.
Godseekers, we must keep our eyes open for how God is moving today. When we spot it, it’s crucial to share those stories. Sharing what we’ve witnessed can encourage others and remind us that God is active and present in our lives.
Additionally, sharing how we’ve seen God at work is not just for us. It’s a beacon for others, especially those still figuring out their beliefs. Every story of a life touched by God, a prayer answered, or a community changed proves that God is far from being a distant figure; He’s here, involved in the nitty-gritty of our lives.
And you know what? There’s something incredibly powerful about getting together as a community and talking about the wonders we’ve seen God perform. It builds our faith, sure, but it also weaves us closer as a group, united in our amazement and motivated by our shared experiences.
So, why not take every chance we get to discuss these divine moments? Whether during coffee after church, a catch-up call with a friend, or even at family dinner, let’s make room for conversations about how God is moving in our lives.
Prayer
Lord, open our eyes to see the wonders of Your work around us. Give us the courage to share these stories, strengthening our faith and drawing others to You. May our lives be a testament to Your power and love, every single day. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
