There is a difference between seeking a sign and seeking Yahweh's power

Posted 03-05-2024 at 08:58 AM by Heavenese


Most Christians don't believe God works miracles at the same clip He did with the very early Church, or as was done with Jesus. They may believe God will work a miracle here or there. Yet these miracles are seen as "hit and miss"/"every blue moon", something outsiders would say is simply luck.


For Christians who try to justify the lack of God's power on display, they will point to Jesus saying an evil and adulterous generous seeks a sign. So we shouldn't look for miracles. This is missing Jesus' point. You see the mockers and unbelievers who were asking Jesus for a sign, they had already rejected the works He did previously. They heard the testimonies about Jesus and the things He did. It wasn't just one or two people Jesus healed, He was healing whole villages.


For those who were "seeking a sign", was seeking confirmation for who Jesus was. However for the people who got healed by Jesus, they weren't seeking a sign for His confirmation. They knew who He was, and sought Him for His salvation power. As Scripture tells us in..........


And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.........


Yahweh (He Is) rewards those who seek Him. This means the flow of His power will be on display in a believer's life. Everyone who came to Jesus expecting to be healed, were healed. Jesus also displayed command over nature, and He had wholeness within Himself, able to sleep in a boat being tossed by a storm. This is not seeking a sign, this is seeking Yahweh.
