Miraculous healing

Reflection

A miracle "Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father." — John 14:12 Jesus' words here are staggering. He doesn't just promise that His followers will continue His work, He says they will do even greater things. Not greater in kind, but greater in reach and scale, because through the Spirit and the church, the gospel would go out to every nation. The miracles Jesus performed, healing the sick, opening blind eyes, raising the dead, were never just spectacles. They were signs pointing to who He is: the Creator stepping into His creation to make all things new. And He invites us to be part of that same restoration.

Questions to sit with

• What does it mean to you that Jesus says believers will do even greater things than He did?
• Have you ever witnessed or experienced something you would call a miracle?
• How might God be inviting you to participate in His work of restoration today?
