DCLM Sincere Milk 31 December 2024 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Miracles Through Prayers
Topic: Miracles Through Prayers
Text: Acts 9:36-41
36Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
38And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.
39Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.
40But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
41And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive.
Key Verse: “But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.” Acts 9:40
Message
Miracles are wonderful works of God that man cannot fully understand. God’s miracles go beyond the limits of human nature. “Miracles are met in contradiction to nature. They are only in contradiction with what we know of nature” (Saint Augustine). God has a miracle for you, if you can believe. Raising the dead back to life is certainly a big miracle. Once someone is pronounced dead, everyone believes that the end has come. But not with God, He can bring visible things out of the invisible, He raised Lazarus that was dead for four days, He walked upon the sea, the wind and the wave obeyed Him.

If you have a problem, then there is solution to it in God because what God cannot do does not exist. Take your challenge to God in prayers and your expectations will not be cut off. Do you think that any part of your body is dead or it’s under-performing? Does Daddy or Mummy need a special miracle? God can do anything, just ask Him.

Prayer for today: Almighty God, I believe You can do all things, let every problem in my life give way to the manifestation of Your glory in Jesus’ Name.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
