Open Heaven for Teens 4th April 2022 MESSAGE
As instrumental as signs and wonders are to Church growth, they have their limitations. They are primarily meant for unbelievers to see the power of God and come to the light. They are not the ultimate for a believer who has been called to a life of faith.
To an unbeliever, seeing is believing but to a Christian, believing comes before the seeing (desired results).You must be careful not to be so focused on miracles, signs and wonders that you miss out on having a great relationship with God for who He is. Also, it is not the miracles performed through you on earth that will qualify you for Heaven.
In actual fact, there are many false pastors today performing magic and leading unsuspecting members into destruction. Todays Bible reading also establishes that because someone performs miracles doesnt mean he/she is recognized by God.
What will determine your eternity in Heaven is how well you please God in your words, actions, thoughts and relationship with people.
ACTION POINT:
Seek God wholeheartedly and the signs will follow you.
