Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
--John 14:6
At one point or another, every person has to come to grips with the question, “Who is Jesus Christ?” And today I want to help you answer that question in your own heart and life.
It’s true that the miracles of Jesus identify Him as God. They give Him credibility that He was who He said He was. But Jesus didn’t perform them as publicity stunts. He performed them to show you and me something about who He was and what His supernatural power can accomplish in our lives.
Maybe today, you can relate to the disappointment of the couple in the Bible who ran out of wine at the wedding in
Or perhaps today you’re in need…like the thousands of people Jesus fed with two fish and five loaves of bread (John 6:1-15). In feeding them, Jesus showed them…and He’s showing you today…that He is the answer to your needs and your desires.
And lastly, maybe today you’re going through a dark time of life…and you’d admit that you’re fearful of what the future holds. If so, think about when Jesus walked on the water in the middle of the night (John 6:16-21). By doing this, Jesus showed Peter…just like He shows you and me…that He is the answer in the dark times of life.
The point of the miracles of Jesus Christ for you is this: Whatever you’re going through today, He is your answer…just as we see in today’s verse.
It’s my prayer that you will look to Jesus as the answer to whatever you are facing today!
Jesus performed miracles to show you something about who He Is and what His supernatural power can accomplish in your life.
