On the Sunday after Easter I will be beginning a new sermon series. I am calling it, “Believing Jesus for Miracles.” I will be teaching about the seven miracles that Jesus performed in the Gospel of John.

I have chosen to preach about these miracles because I believe God still does miracles today. I must admit, however, that I do not expect Him to do miraculous things today. I need a reminder of how He has worked in the past so that I can have more faith that He will work in the present. I suspect I am not alone.

It is my hope and prayer, that, as we examine some of the miracles Jesus performed when He was alive, we will be reminded of the truth of the following verses:

“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen.” Ephesians 3:20-21 (NIV)

He is able to do more “than all we ask or imagine.” Imagine that! I guess that is the point, isn’t it?

I am looking forward to us learning together and experiencing a growing faith in our powerful God. I hope you will join me in imagining what God can do.
