MIRACLES NEVER CEASE!

Robert Wise explores the world of divine intervention from an objective point of view. How can 21st Century people understand how the hand of God touches people in today’s world?

Read and you’ll find new insights.

When I began researching the subject of miracles, I visited congregations and during morning worship ask the members if anyone had ever experienced such an event. Following the service, people would come up, look around to make sure no one was listening, and then whisper a story. The topic of miracles had become suspect.

But I found they continue to happen.

Quinton Moore is a pastor of a church called The Father’s House and is a bishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches. One evening, Billy Simmons stopped Quinton in the church hallway.

“Pastor, my daughter Kendra has become ninety percent deaf.” Billy shook his head. “We’re terribly worried. Tomorrow we’re taking her to an audiologists for more testing. Would you pray for her right now?”

Pastor Moore took a deep breath. He was tired, in a hurry, and didn’t feel particularly spiritual, but he couldn’t walk away. The pastor forced a smile and reached out for the child. He laid his hands on the little girl and prayed fervently.

The next day when the Simmons family showed up at the audiologists, Kendra was thoroughly examined.

“There is nothing wrong with her hearing,” the perplexed specialist said. “She’s fine. I’m not sure why you brought her in.”

Believe in miracles? Kendra Simmons certainly does.

In these blogs, we examine the subject of miracles and the miraculous and see if we can understand the circumstances around how these phenomenon occur. We will consider the value of searching for a miracle when faced with an impossible situation. After looking at the pages of the Bible, we will explore how miracles have continued to appear during past and recent history. We want to know more about the experiences of people like Kendra Simmons.

My ultimate objective for this blog is to help restore a ministry that the New Testament suggests should be constant. Regardless of various theological debates, healing, restoration, life re-orienting events, hearing the Divine communicate, etc. have never stopped. Unfortunately, most churches just aren’t up on history.

How did this happen to Kendra? First, her father came for spiritual help. The trust and faith were in the father, not the child. Second, they came to a pastor who believe in and practiced interceding for the sick. Third, the pastor knew he had not capacity to heal anyone – but he could be a vessel for God to use. The result was the restoration of a child’s hearing.

Sound simple? The most profound truths always sound simple. However, the practice isn’t easy or without understanding. It begins in an expansion of our faith to believe the Holy Spirit is able – and reaching out to impart the gift.

EACH WEEK WE WILL BE HERE.

A NEW BLOG IS HERE! MIRACLES NEVER CEASE!

The widely read blog on the MIDDLE EAST from Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. features weekly updates on little known facts about Israel, Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria, countries where Wise has traveled and worked. In an unbiased and politically neutral manner, he reports an objective view of what’s happening. Robert Wise is now adding an entirely new dimension of his studies for his readers.

A NEW BLOG HAS ARRIVED!

MIRACLES NEVER CEASE EXPLORES DIVINE INTERVENTIONS

Each week Robert Wise talks with, interviews, and follows everyday people who encountered miraculous interventions in their lives. Their amazing stories are described and explored to understand how these encounters occurred. No one theological view or denominational perspective is involved. Wise is open to what transpired regardless of the individual’s persuasion.

You will be challenged, inspired, and intrigued by these interviews. For over two years, Wise spoke with a wide range of people. Some were Christians; some were not. Many stayed outside the church while others were devout attenders. Wherever people had encounters, he discussed with them about what they saw, felt and experienced.

THE UNEXPECTED!

For two years Robert Wise explored the divine interventions that had taken place in individual lives. To his surprise, he discovered that many people had virtually never told anyone what wondrous fact occurred. They worried were concerned that people would think them crazy. The experience of divine intervention has been that unusual with many people and churches. Some denominations concluded that the miraculous age ended with the Apostles and that consequently after 100 A.D. there were no more such occurrences. Sorry. History doesn’t support that idea.

Another group’s practices were considered emotionalism. The unusual was explained away as being only rampant hysteria. The conclusion was that after the excessive sensation wore off, the so-called miracle disappeared and the person was left with the same problem as before. Clearly, there have been many cases where hype in mass meetings manipulated suffering people. However, the events that Wise encountered had nothing to do with emotion, jazzed up mass meetings, or people being controlled in a volatile environment. We will explore this scene in depth!

WE WANT YOUR STORY

Robert Wise also wants to know your history. Do you have an experience that you’ve never shared but know is important? Don’t worry about explaining or justifying the facts. Just let Robert Wise know. In the weeks that are before us, we will be considering many important happenings that demonstrate God is still at work in today’s world. You’ll be amazed and inspired by each of the blogs that explore a divine intervention.

EACH WEEK WE WILL BE HERE.
