Let’s Sum Up
If God really did send Jesus, how could God prove that fact to men? By showing powers that only God can give. Jesus had those powers. He showed full control over every part of nature. He gave immediate healing from every sickness. He proved His complete power over death. Many witnesses saw and reported these signs to us. The signs have an important message for each one of us – Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. Belief in Jesus leads to life.

OUR PRAYER: Great Creator, You own all nature. You set nature’s laws and limits. This we confess that Your glory has been shown. Help us to make the greater confession: You who work in nature can, for Your own special purposes, work above nature. Help us to confess that Your amazing signs prove the great truths about Jesus…
