the greatest miracle
Isaiah 35:5-6 NKJV
“Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, And the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then the lame shall leap like a deer, And the tongue of the dumb sing. For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, And streams in the desert.”
John 2:23-25 AMP
“Now when He (Jesus) was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many believed in His name, identifying themselves with Him after seeing His signs and attesting to the miracles which He was doing. But Jesus, for His part, did not entrust Himself to them, because He knew all people and understood the superficiality and fickleness of human nature, and He did not need anyone to testify concerning man and human nature, for He Himself knew what was within their hearts and very core of their being”.
John 3:1-8 NKJV
“There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.” Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
THE GREATEST MIRACLE (Receiving Christ)
1. THE BLIND SEE
2. THE DEAF HEAR
3. THE LAME WALK
John 1:11-13 NKJV
“He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.”
I John 5:10 NKJV
“He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself…”
Romans 8:15-17 NKJV
“…you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ.”
Matthew 3:16-17 NKJV
“When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Romans 6:4 NKJV
“….we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.”
