MIRACLES NEVER CEASE!

Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D. and the author of 36 books, Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.

MIRACLE ON THE BATTLEFIELD

            In these politically troubled times, it is helpful to remember that miracles are a reflection of the purposes and promises of God. All the promises of God are yes and “so-be-it.” They stand forever even if it takes a millennium to fulfill. Even with the current war and turmoil, the nation of Israel is an enduring example of that fact.

            In Israel’s 1967 Yom Kippur War, the Israelis were completely caught off-guard. The Syrian Army came pouring in from the Golan Heights and completely outnumbered the Israels. The battle proved to be ugly and bloody. The situation appeared to be fatal for Israel. If the enemy tanks prevailed, the Jews would be driven into the ocean. Only a handful of Israeli military tanks stood against a multitude of Syrian armor ready to wipe them out.

            David Yamean called on the armored tanks around him to withstand the onslaught. As commander of the Unit, he called for them to charge. Almost no one moved. They knew it would be suicide.  Nevertheless, Commander Yamean charged forward with only a few following him.  Remembering Auschwitz and the death camps, they would die before surrendering. The small unit of tanks prepared to fight to the finish. As the treads of the wheels rumbled forward, they prayed.

            For absolutely no military reason, the Syrian tanks stopped. After a pause, they turned and retreated. David Yamean and the few tanks around him halted, they opened their hatches and couldn’t believe their eyes. The obvious defeat had turned into a stunning victory.

            What happened?

            At 3:00 in the night Washington, D.C. time, Golda Meier called President Richard Nixon, work him up, and told him the Jewish people were about to be wiped out unless America responded.

            Years before Nixon’s mother had told Richard that the Jewish people had a special place in God’s plan for the world. He should always be mindful of them. He was.

            Nixon immediately called the Pentagon and told them to prepare to stand behind the Jewish people and to let Syria know they were coming. Consequently, the Syrian tanks were commanded to retreat. Would the Jews have been slaughtered without that withdrawal? No question about it.

            Does God keep His promises? The prophet Daniel predicted in 1,335 years the Jews would be blessed. Haggai added that the blessing would come on the 24th day of the 9th month of the year. When one adds up those numbers, they come out on December 9, 1917. On that day the Mayor of Jerusalem gave the keys of the city of Jerusalem to the British General that began the eventual  recovery of the city by the Jews.

            A miracle? Certainly. Just remember your personal story is of equal interest to your heavenly Father. Claim one of His promises and become part of the history of the miraculous. You are of equal importance to God

               Remember miracles never cease!

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE

Blog 397

August 24, 2025

MIRACLES NEVER CEASE

Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D., Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE

The most asked and the most unanswered question through the centuries is, “What happens when we die?” The resurrection of Jesus Christ assured us that death has been defeated, but what follows? What might be expected after our own death? From listening to many, many people who had near-death experiences, I found dimensions of dying appear to be predictable.

People who were injured in an accident or had a problem that required medical attention often found that as the staff worked on them, they began to float out of their bodies and up to the ceiling. They looked down on the medical procedure occurring on their own bodies while observing from above. We might consider this to be Step One.

Next people who were dying often report their entire life appeared before them like a movie. They saw and reexperienced what had happened during the previous years. They often felt the emotion they had caused others to feel whether good and bad. Like watching a continuous re-run, they experienced their entire existence all over again. Step Two.

As persons drifted away from their bodies, they lost the sensation of pain. Peace enveloped them. No matter how nightmarish their struggle had been, their agony simply vanished.  People abruptly had a heightened sense of awareness with many people reporting a  new depth of peace even though their bodies were dead. Step Three.

While this does not seem to be true for everyone, many speak of going down a long tunnel while hearing heavenly music like nothing they ever heard before. The tunnel often seemed to radiate love  while they traveled at an incredible speed while feeling like they were standing still. At the end of the tunnel, a brilliant light appeared to be waiting for them. When they reach the end, they knew they had come to their final destiny. Step Four.

The people who come back from a near death experience usually made a decision to return to their life. Often, they were given a choice of whether to stay or return. In some cases, they were told it was not their time yet. They knew there was a boundary between heaven and this world. If they crossed the line, they couldn’t return to their previous life. They made a decision to come back. Step Five.

One of the amazing dimensions of the near-death experience is meeting family and loved ones who have gone on before. Grandparents are often waiting with open arms. Sometimes they met relatives that they never knew even existed. The  promise of reunions remained one of the most meaningful experiences they had. Step Six.

My description of steps doesn’t mean encounters happen in these exact ways nor that this exhausts all that people underwent. My intent is to help you consider  the nature of what is ahead. This path has already been prepared by Jesus Christ. Faith allows you to put all dread and fear aside. The best is yet to be!      

            And remember that miracle never ceases.

THE OPERATION WAS INEVITABLE UNTIL…

MIRACLES NEVER CEASE

MIRACLES NEVER CEASE!

Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D., Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.

THE OPERATION WAS INEVITABLE UNTIL…

            Sure, there are quacks around and charlatans that “fake” the intervention of God. At the same time, gifted believers can provide wonderful results.  The first time I attended a Kathryn Kulman service I had no idea what to expect. By the time I left two and a half hours later, I was overwhelmed. I realized empowered people were endowed with a capacity to bring healing results.

            Patricia Robinson discovered the same by accident. An x-ray on her left knee revealed osteoarthritis. The cartilage had worn away along with bone spurs creating pain. She found it hard to accept this result and went for a second opinion. An Orthopedic surgeon at Orthopedic Consultants in Minneapolis confirmed the earlier diagnosis. Pat needed knee replacement. Surgery was scheduled.

            She dreaded the idea. As Pat studied the preparation book given by the surgeon, Pat also started praying… praying hard. From her study of the Bible, she embraced her heavenly Father as Jehovah Rapha, her healer.

            Someone noticed that a healing crusade was coming to the Target Center in Minneapolis. Other friends from her church were going. Couldn’t hurt anything. Why not?    

            When Pat and her husband arrived, the building was already crowded and they had to sit in the balcony. They argued with the usher that they needed to be down front because of her problem. The usher assured them “when the anointing comes, you’ll get it right in your chair.” They had no choice but to settle in.

            People shared testimonies. The evangelist preached and then interceded for people lined up before him. Pat watched as people were decisively healed.

            Near the end of the service, the evangelist suddenly looked up in the balcony. “Someone up there is scheduled for surgery next week.” He pointed to where Pat was sitting. “Cancel your surgery. You are healed.”

            Pat could hardly believe her ears. Was it her? Seemed to be, but was it too good to be true? By the time they arrived home, she had her answer. She could run up and down the stairs easily and with no pain. She was healed!

            When she called to halt surgery, Pat shared her experience with an amazed doctor.  Now years later, Pat remains healed. The trip to the crusade was everything she needed. She had a miracle.

            The next time such a crusade comes to your town investigate and if the reports hold up, don’t be afraid to attend and reach out. Could be your opportunity to join Pat in praising Jehovah Rapha.

WHEN THE DARKNESS DIED

Blog 383

April 20, 2025

MIRACLES NEVER CEASE

Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D., Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.

WHEN THE DARKNESS DIED

            Easter is the celebration of the amazing transforming miracle of light. The Light has shined into the darkness and the darkness has never overcome it. On Easter we remember how the darkness of death was dispelled.

            No matter where you look in the world, you will find cemeteries. At the edge of every town, there is a graveyard and everyone knows that’s where they will eventually reside. We try to avoid the fact, but in the moments when we are most lucid, we recognize the inevitable. One day we will be there.

            And then Easter morning comes.

            The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead proclaims that Light has shined into the darkness of the grave and the darkness has not over come it. Easter proclaims that every tomb is now filled with Light and the darkness cannot halt the penetrating glow.

            That’s the miracle of Easter.

            Our worst fear has been conquered. Death has no power over us. Every dark night will give way to a new day of promise. When church choirs sing, “Christ the Lord is risen today,” they are singing to the past, the present, and the future, that no amount of darkness will ever stop the Light.

            That is the greatest miracle of all.

            And that miracle never ceases.

BREAKTHROUGH!

Blog 379

March 9, 2025

MIRACLES NEVER CEASE

Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D., Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.

BREAKTHROUGH!

            Do we have a part to play in divine interventions? The answer is yes and no. Sometimes the Holy Spirit moves with no initiation from us. At other times we must position ourselves to be receptive. Sometimes even when we have been resistant, we must reposition ourselves. Alice Miller’s experience was like that.

            I was sitting in my office on a Saturday morning when a young woman was abruptly standing in the doorway. Her pained expression said more than any words could. Alice Miller told me this was her last stop before she committed suicide.

            Alice’s husband was a doctor and they had several children. Unfortunately, he wanted out of the marriage to pursue a nurse. She had been blindsided and saw no alternative but to take her life. I asked her to sit down. Since she was certain that she was going to do herself in, I suggested she had nothing to lose by talking a little longer.

            I listened as she described her family and thought that could prevent a rash action. It didn’t. I turned to her faith. She had none.

            Alice told me that she and her doctor husband believed only in science. They had decided there was nothing else. She really didn’t know why she was even talking to me since she couldn’t accept any of my biblical ideas. Obviously, the philosophical and theological arguments I learned in seminary wouldn’t work. But I had a suggestion. Go home and find a solitary room where the children couldn’t bother her. Close your eyes and start talking as if there is a God standing across from you and listening to everything you are saying. Use your imagination. What did she have to lose if she was going to commit suicide any way? Since she did believe in science, try a spiritual scientific experiment.

            The suicide was delayed. I walked her back to her car and told her to call me about the results. A shotgun was laying in the front seat.

            A week later Alice called. She was mystified because something, maybe someone, seemed to be in that empty room with her. I encouraged her to meditate further, pour out her need, open her mind AND heart to the possibility that the Almighty God loved her and wanted to communicate that love.

            A few days later, Alice called with emotion in her voice. New hope and assurance had been given to her life. The Holy Spirit was definitely working in and with her. Forget about suicide.

            Alice Miller did her part. God did his part. She went on to rebuild her life. You might consider trying that same exercise. Get alone. Ask the Holy Spirit to come to you and communicate. Open your mind and emotions to receive the working of God. Just might be the most miraculous thing you’ve ever done.

            Remember miracles never cease.

DISASTER OR

Blog 378

March 2, 2025

MIRACLES NEVER CEASE

Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D., Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.

            DISASTER OR

            The man screamed, “I’m going to rape you and dump you in a field. If you want to live, do as I say!” His car shot out of garage and down Monterey Boulevard.  Jenny had immigrated from China and was terrified.

She had taken a job as a waitress when the attacker found her.  When she reached for the car door, the man screamed, “You can’t open it, It’s an automatic lock.” She was desperate.

            The woman had been working two jobs and struggling to learn English. She painfully missed her family so far away across the ocean. The difficulties were reflected in her face. A worn, tired countenance prevailed day and night. As she was serving a young woman, the lady looked up and said, “You seem unhappy. My dear, ought to try prayer. It works.”

            In China, the Communist Party had taught her that religious people were weak and fearful, mental cripples who believed in fairy tales. She had grown up during the Cultural Revolution and been indoctrinated with atheistic philosophy. Like Karl Marx, she believed religion was an opiate, a drug and nothing more

            Abducted by a madman speeding down the highway and about to be attacked or murdered, those political ideas were irrelevant.  She needed a powerful Greater Being who could help her in this terrifying situation. Jenny made a decision to give prayer a try. She closed her eyes and silently cried out, “Dear God, if you exist, please help me.” Jenny inwardly desperately prayed. To her surprise, she felt a calm strength enter her body.

            Suddenly, the car lurched and the tires squealed. The driver had abruptly swerved off the interstate highway into a small town. The evening street lights had come on. Jenny kept praying, “Please God, give me strength.”

            When they stopped at an intersection, she saw a police officer across the street with the car’s red and blue lights flashing. This was her moment of truth. Filled with new spiritual strength, she pulled on the door handle, knowing it wouldn’t open.  It did. The attacker tried to grab her arm, but she jumped out of the car and ran toward the officer.

            The man shot down the street, but an hour later the police apprehended him.

            Jenny knew a divine power had saved her life. Doubts from the past blew away like dust. She discovered the most important things in life -kindness, love, faith- couldn’t be found in a test tube. The more she aligned herself with the power of God, the better her life became.

            Our heavenly Father is always there. Don’t wait for a possible disaster to find out. Can praying make a difference right now? Jenny will tell you that it absolutely does. Her life proves the fact.

AWAKENED TO THE LIGHT

Blog 377

February 23, 2025

MIRACLES NEVER CEASE

Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D., Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.

            AWAKENED TO THE LIGHT

            Miracles come in all shapes and sizes. Often the divine touch comes in a way that is unexpected. Elaine Stephenson had just such an experience.

            On February 3, 2021, Elaine was finished with her usual early morning two hours of “layered” prayer. Still battling an illness, something unusual started to appear.  A deeply personal vision began to emerge.

            Elaine began picturing her body and ordering all the negatives to leave every part of her. She prayed for Jesus to fill every cell with his healing water followed by his healing touch. Next, she asked for his healing light to surge in.  Elaine began asking for the prayers of the many people who prayed for her need to flow through her body. As the prayer time came to an end, she gave thanks and praise to Jesus for hearing her prayers.

            Almost as an afterthought, Elaine asked, “…Jesus, would you take my sack with you when you go.” She was referring to a hideous, misshaped roll of fat that had formed across her lower abdomen. While struggling with her illness, Elaine had lost a substantial amount of weight in a short period of time. The result had created the bulge around her waist. Elaine had barely gotten those words out of her mouth when she sensed a change.

            Directly in front of her, she envisioned a circle with a line forming in the center, almost like a stick figure being drawn. As the line continued to extend, it started making a letter. In the center of the circle the bold capital letters formed making a giant “I AM.” She immediately thought that Jesus was saying “I AM with you.” Elaine knew her prayers had been answered. Tears began to run down her cheeks.

            ( Exodus 3:13-14 relates that Moses discovered the name of God to be in Hebrew YHWH or  I AM).

            The letter of the I AM glowed boldly across her dark room. Each letter was printed on a shape like a child’s building block. The colors glowed with an other worldly magnificence.  Long after the image fade, the letters were etched in her mind. She was healed.

            Finally, Elaine woke her husband and related the experience. He too was amazed. They agreed her experience must be shared with others. Oh by the way. the sagging sack around her waist was gone.

            Remember miracles never cease.
