Healings and Miracles

Intro: What is the most daring thing you have ever done?

Study

  1. 1 Cor 12:9, Isaiah 53:5 The two gifts of the Holy spirit that we want to discuss in this lesson are the gift of healing, and the gift of miracles.
    1. Matt 8:14-17 While Jesus preached the message of salvation, he healed many people who were sick, oppressed, and demon possessed.
      1. Mark 6:56, Luke 9:1-2 Jesus led by example, he showed his disciples how it was done, then he sent them out to operate under the Holy Spirits power.
      2. John 14:12 It is Gods will for each of us to operate in the gifts of healing and miracles today as we share the message of salvation with the lost.
    2. James 5:14 We must face our fears, however and step out in faith to not only share about Christ, but to pray for those who are sick or oppressed.
  2. 1 Cor 12:10, 2 kings 6:15-17 The gift of miracles is the ability to pray and see God do unexplainable things, protect us miraculously, or meet major needs etc…
    1. 1 kings 18:36-39 We are in position to see Gods miracles when were doing his will and taking steps of faith he told us to take.
      1. Phil 4:19 God promises to give us whatever we need, the greater the steps of faith we are willing to take, the greater the miracles we will see.
      2. James 2:26 The gifts of miracles and healing are not seen today nearly as God wants them, this is because many Christians trust in themselves not on God, we are very comfortable, and are afraid to step out in Faith.
    2. Mt 10:7-8, 1 Tim 4:14 God is calling us to reach this generation with the gospel, operating under the power of the Holy Spirit with Miracles.

Discussion

  1. Have you ever seen someone miraculously healed by the power of the Holy Spirit? what other miracles have you seen or heard God do today?
  2. Why do you think that we don’t see the level of miracles today that were seen in the bible?
  3. What steps of faith should we take to position ourselves for the gifts of Healing and Miracles to happen through our lives?
  4. Is there anyone here tonight who needs healed, or needs a miracle in their lives? if so in what ways?

End: Pray for any who want to receive the gifts of healing, miracles, any who are sick, or who need a miracle in their lives, then take requests.
