Are You Missing The Signs?

The Pharisees came to argue and test. They probably didn’t
actually want a miracle; they wanted more fuel to accuse him of
being a false prophet.
The Pharisees and Sadducees (it’s crazy that they worked together
here) wanted a sign from heaven. Signs from heaven would:
- show the prophet to be trustworthy and reliable.
- show power and authority.
Many of the miracles that Jesus performed were done in response
to the person’s faith.
There are many instances where Jesus did not perform miracles. It
was usually a response to the motive behind the request or
because Jesus knows the bigger picture.
The disciples missed out on an important lesson because they got
distracted and forgot about what Jesus had already done for
them.
3 questions we should ask ourselves:
- What is the heart behind the things we ask of God?
- Are we missing the signs?
- What have we forgotten that God has already done?
