Day 1: Understanding God’s Patterns and Miracles

Devotional:
One of the most profound truths about God is that He is not limited by the natural laws we observe. While science helps us understand patterns in creation, God’s power transcends these boundaries. When we think of “laws of nature” as rigid limits, we risk shrinking God’s sovereignty. Instead, we should embrace the truth that God works both through ordinary means and extraordinary miracles. Recognizing this frees us to expect God’s intervention in every area of life and to worship Him as the Creator who sustains and surpasses creation.

Summary:

• Avoid thinking of “laws of nature” as limits on God’s power.
• God works through patterns of providence but is not bound by them.
• Miracles reveal God’s freedom and power beyond natural patterns.

Reflection Question:
How does understanding God’s freedom beyond natural laws affect the way you view everyday blessings and miracles?

Prayer:
Lord, help me to see Your hand in both the ordinary and the extraordinary. Teach me to trust Your power beyond what I understand. Amen.
