Awakened to Deliver – The Gift of Miracles

Week 28, Day 3: Why Some Don’t Believe in Miracles Today

Key Verse: 2 Timothy 3:5 (NASB 2020)

“…holding to a form of godliness although they have denied its power; avoid such people as these.”

⸻

Episode Highlights

• Many today reject the supernatural while still claiming to follow Jesus.

• The root of this rejection is unbelief—not ignorance, but spiritual resistance.

• Scripture warns us about having the outward appearance of godliness while denying God’s power.

• Cessationism is not biblical; it is a doctrine born of fear, pride, and disappointment.

• The enemy strategically opposes miracles because they expose his defeat and glorify Jesus.

• Modern church culture often substitutes performance and polish for real power.

• Miracles haven’t ceased—faith has.

⸻

Scriptures to Reflect On

• 2 Timothy 3:5 – A form of godliness without power is to be avoided.

• Hebrews 3:12 – Unbelief causes hearts to fall away from God.

• Mark 6:5–6 – Jesus could do few miracles due to unbelief.

• 1 Corinthians 1:7 – We are to lack no gift until Christ returns.

• Matthew 12:24 – Pharisees accused Jesus of using Satan’s power.

• Mark 9:24 – “I do believe; help my unbelief.”

• Acts 9:36–42 – Miracles resulted in many believing.

• John 14:12 – Jesus promises His followers will do even greater works.

Takeaway Thought

Miracles haven’t vanished. Hearts have grown cold. Theology has grown timid. And many have exchanged the fire of Pentecost for the fog of powerless tradition. But if we’ll reject unbelief, renounce dead religion, and believe again, we’ll see miracles the way Jesus intended—through ordinary people full of extraordinary faith.

Call to Action

Ask the Holy Spirit to expose every area where you’ve tolerated unbelief. Repent for agreeing with powerless Christianity. And begin to expect again—expect God to heal, to move, to break through. His power hasn’t changed. It’s time we start believing like it.
