HOW POWER ENCOUNTERS
ARE MAJOR ACTS
OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD
22 And the Lord showed great and devastating signs and wonders upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household before our eyes. Exodus 6

2 You shall speak all that I command you, and Aaron your brother shall tell Pharaoh to send the children of Israel out of his land. 3 But I will harden Pharaoh’s heart and multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt. Exodus 7

8 And the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand and with an outstretched arm and with great terror, and with signs and wonders.
Deuteronomy 26
2 I thought it good to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God has done for me. 3 How great are His signs,
and how mighty are His wonders!
His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and His dominion is from generation to generation. Daniel 4
30 by stretching out Your hand to heal and that signs and wonders may be performed in the name of Your holy Son Jesus.” Acts 4

God is not silent and the work of the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk is it…20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. 1 Corinthians 4.
God is not silent but calls on us at times to be silent in His presence.

God wants us to know Him and the salvation He brings did not come silently but with the activity of angles, prophets, incarnation and declarations of the Holy Spirit. God moved in sign and wonder in Christ and continues to show His kingdom has come in powers and wonders.
In all the Miracles of the Bible Herbert Lockyer says….
“An important aspect of Bible miracles is the fact that they are proper proofs of a divine revelation. It is questionable whether there can be an authentic revelation without miracles. They are not only proofs of a revelation but form a revelation in themselves. Of course, miracles guarantee the authenticity of a revelation. Bible miracles form an integral part of Holy Writ and testify to its divine inspiration and veracity. Apart from these miracles we have no other evidence of the supernatural working on man’s behalf in time of crises. Miracles, as an integral part of the Bible, provide evidence that it is God’s divinely inspired Word. Without its miraculous content we could not accept it as a supernatural Book. No miracles–no striking proof of its divine authorship. Among other aspects of the design or purpose of the inclusion of so many miracles is the manifestation of the glory of God. How eloquently they speak of His sovereignty in every realm! He is Lord in and of all (John 11:4). Miracles are “both the official and authoritative seal of God.” Miracles are also the insignia of Christ’s deity–“a constitutive element of the revelation of God in Christ”–and Messiahship (John 2:11; 11:4; Matthew 11:4-6; Acts 2:20; 10:38). In these displays of His inherent power, we have the exercise of His creative, punitive, and healing authority. And all of His miracles were in “accord with His miraculous origin, sinless nature and moral perfection.” They provided God with a method of authenticating Christ’s divine mission. He Himself regarded His miracles as evidence that He was from God–and was God (John 14:24). Later on, as we come to the study of New Testament miracles, we shall see how many of His miracles were the natural expression of His sympathy for a suffering humanity, as well as the confirmations
