ws041702
2 Kings 4:1-7
v.6 And it came to pass,
* what came to pass? … the end of the miracle came to pass
* what does one do when the miracle stops
* when the miracle is over, the real work begins
* there is plenty to do after a miracle moment
* there is plenty to do after the manna ceases
> Joshua 5:12 And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
* don’t let depression stop you after your miracle
* thank God for it and move on
* there comes a time when the miracle is over
* Acts 19:21 and when these things had ended.
* The test of finished
* It was good while it lasted but what do we do now
* Learning to live in the shadow of a miracle
> missionary blues
> an unwillingness to be spent again
> depression
* the reason for the miracle may be to give you something more productive to do after the miracle
* Miracles
> enable us
> equip us
> position us
* Miracles:
> take us some place, (Acts 8:39-40 Phillip translated)
> give us some thing, (Matthew 17:27 Money in the mouth of the fish)
> show us some thing (Acts 10:10-15 Peter’s roof top vision)
so that we can better accomplish God’s will and purpose.
