Birthing the Miraculous: The Power of Personal Encounters with God to Change Your Life and the World

Top Highlights

“If you want to birth the miraculous, you cannot afford to waste time getting offended. Offense stops you carrying the promise to full term, and you really never know what God plans to do with a situation that offends you at first.” (source)

“Our God is the God of the impossible. He can take a barren ministry and breathe His Spirit into it. Even in your old age He can breathe over you and cause you to bear a ministry, a promise, or a revelation—a beautiful gift that will carry His glory to the ends of the earth. He can take the most barren and broken life—even the kind of life that has aborted its own promises many times over—and in it plant a glorious new promise, along with all the strength that is needed to carry it to full term.” (source)

“When you are only ankle-deep, you may still know the Holy Spirit. You may have profound convictions. You may have charismatic gifts. You may see some of God’s power. Even so, most of the time you will be confined to activities you know how to produce and control. You will be walking on your own and relying on your own plans.” (source)

“Our one desire is to be in love with Him and to love Him well, and then to love every man, woman, and child we meet each day. All we really want is for our love to burn for Him, because we know that His love burns for us. He is for us. If we will yield, He will not let anything dead remain in us.” (source)

“We too must realize that developing a life in God’s presence above all else is the only way to fulfill our God-given destinies. Keys to our callings are released when we spend time there. We must always run to Him in the secret place to find the true source of life.” (source)
