I expect miracles every day of my life. Some people don’t believe in miracles, but I believe that miracles are happening all the time if we will only pay attention. Have you ever had something happen to you where you thought it must have been more than just mere coincidence? Have you ever prayed for something to happen, that seemed impossible and your prayer was answered?

What is a miracle? A dictionary definition for miracle…

miracle n. An event that appears inexplicable by the laws of nature and so is held to be supernatural in origin or an act of God

In the Bible miracles are those acts that only God can perform: usually superceding natural laws. You may have heard of the story of Moses and the Red Sea being divided into two halves so the Israelites could cross through, or the story of Noah’s Ark that weathered the worldwide flood, in fact today there is a life size replica of Noah’s Ark built in Hong Kong Ma Wan Island, or stories of Jesus healing the sick, casting out demons and raising the dead in the Gospels.
But for most of us, we may never see such dramatic miracles, yet we can still attest to the fact that miracles still happen, sometimes in big ways other times in small ways, nevertheless they miracles still happen!
I have seen some amazing miracles in my years of travels and adventures. I remember once how I was a young boy swimming in a big swimming pool at a friends party. I didn’t know how to swim, but somehow I ended up slipping into the deep end of the pool. Swallowing gulps of water into my lungs, I jumped up and down gasping for air but realized I was overcome by the deep waters and was drowning fast. In my mind, I began to faint fast and thought that I was dying. All of a sudden I felt two hands pull me up from under the water and place me on the concrete floor safely and securely. I coughed out water and as I gained my composure I looked around me to find out who had saved me from drowning. There were only a few people in the pool and they all looked at me like I was crazy. I started yelling, “Who saved me from drowning?” Again, everyone looked at me strangely because they did not even notice that I was drowning. I asked every person at the small party if they were the ones who picked me up from drowning in the swimming pool, no one took responsibility for my rescue. As a 7 year old, I then concluded either it was God Himself or He must have sent angel to rescue me.
You will either see nothing as a miracle, or you can choose to see everything as a miracle. You can choose to use your logic, or you can choose to have faith. When logic no longer has an answer for your problems, that is when faith is most needed and that is when miracles happen. Everyday, if you pay close attention you will recognize that many things that happen are more than mere coincidence, but possibly a divine orchestration of God’s intervention. A few ways to experience a miracle in your life…

1.    Believe in a Good God ~ miracles happen when have faith in a God that can make the impossible, possible.  When we believe that God is good, anything can happen! The Devil is always bad, God is always good, put your faith in God’s goodness & you will expect good things to happen to you!
2.    Pray Often ~ when you begin to pray about everything your spiritual eyes began to see past logic and into the realm of faith. You enter from the natural into the supernatural and this creates an environment around you for miracles to happen.
3.    Look for Signs ~ many times we recognize miracles when we pay attention to divine signs that appear in our lives. When you realize that something you just prayed for happened, or something is too good to be true, it’s probably a miracle on the rise.
4.    Be expectant ~ miracles happen to those who believe, those who exercise their faith and desire to see uncommon hopes accomplished. A pastor once said, “Impossible situations can become possible miracles” Every challenge is opportunity for a miracle to happen!

Remember that, “Everyday holds the possibility of a miracle.” We got to believe that in every challenge of life that we face, it presents an opportunity for miracles to take place. After all, just the fact that we are alive is a miracle in itself…Yes, you are the greatest miracle of all!
