“In Awe of His Miracles!”

December 14, 2025

“The central miracle asserted by Christians is the Incarnation. They say that God became Man. Every other miracle prepares for this, or exhibits this, or results from this.”  –C.S. Lewis

“I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her. 

– ‭‭Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭38‬ ‭(NIV)‬‬

I can see miracles with a willing, thankful, and believing !

Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness. 

– ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭9‬:‭10‬ ‭(NIV‬‬)

God asks to participate in the miracles that He does!

God’s got …so follow through!

From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. 

– ‭‭Acts‬ ‭17‬:‭26‬-‭27‬ ‭(NIV‬‬)

Discussion Questions: 

In Awe of His Miracles!

In this series we call Adoration, we are reclaiming our awe of Christ. We are taking the time to slow down and look at examples in the Bible to bring back the awe of Christ. Miracles led up to and surrounded Jesus’ birth, miracles surrounded His life and ministry here on earth, and Jesus still does miracles today! We looked at stories in the Bible that compare and contrast different responses to miracles, and from Mary and Zechariah we learned that if we want to regain our awe of miracles, we need a thankful, willing, and believing heart. And from the feeding of the 5,000 and Peter walking on water…Jesus wants us to participate in the miracles that He does. Even if our faith fails…God’s got you!

Here are the questions for you to discuss:

1. Are you more like Zechariah or Mary when it comes to miracles? How did you arrive at that?
2. In Luke 1:38 Mary says: “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” What is the last “word” God has given you? Did you fulfill it yet or not?
3. Pastor Jarrod shared some stories of the small miracles the other staff members told him; share a small miracle the Lord has done for you!
4. In feeding the 5,000 Jesus provided the miracle and it passed through the hands of the Disciples.  Share a story of a miracle God asked you to participate in.
5. How did you come to faith in Jesus Christ? What were some of the miracles that happened in the process.
