1 | Who produces miracles? | 1 Cor 12:10 | Tina Prior | 150291 | ||
I teach Sunday School to 9 year olds and I want to discuss who performs miracles and back it up with scripture. On looking up miracles, I wasn't able to actually come up with the scripture that clearly states who alone performs miracles. Can anyone point me to the scripture that states clearly that miracles come only from God? Thank you. |

2 | Who produces miracles? | 1 Cor 12:10 | Michael Draves | 150292 | ||
Mark 9:38 John said to Him, "Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us." Mark 9:39 But Jesus said, "Do not hinder him, for there is no one who will perform a miracle in My name, and be able soon afterward to speak evil of Me. Mark 9:40 "For he who is not against us is for us. Matt 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Matt 7:22 "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' Matt 7:23 "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.' Matt 12:25 And knowing their thoughts Jesus said to them, "Any kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and any city or house divided against itself will not stand. Matt 12:26 "If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then will his kingdom stand? Matt 12:27 "If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? For this reason they will be your judges. Matt 12:28 "But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. 1 Cor 12:4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. 1 Cor 12:5 And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord. 1 Cor 12:6 There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons. 1 Cor 12:7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 1 Cor 12:8 For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit; 1 Cor 12:9 to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, 1 Cor 12:10 and to another the effecting of miracles, and to another prophecy, and to another the distinguishing of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues. 1 Cor 12:11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually just as He wills. Acts 8:9 Now there was a man named Simon, who formerly was practicing magic in the city and astonishing the people of Samaria, claiming to be someone great; Acts 8:10 and they all, from smallest to greatest, were giving attention to him, saying, "This man is what is called the Great Power of God." Acts 8:11 And they were giving him attention because he had for a long time astonished them with his magic arts. Acts 8:12 But when they believed Philip preaching the good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were being baptized, men and women alike. Acts 8:13 Even Simon himself believed; and after being baptized, he continued on with Philip, and as he observed signs and great miracles taking place, he was constantly amazed. Acts 8:14 Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent them Peter and John, Acts 8:15 who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit. Acts 8:16 For He had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 8:17 Then they began laying their hands on them, and they were receiving the Holy Spirit. Acts 8:18 Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was bestowed through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money, Acts 8:19 saying, "Give this authority to me as well, so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit." Acts 8:20 But Peter said to him, "May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money! Acts 8:21 "You have no part or portion in thisMatter, for your heart is not right before God. Acts 8:22 "Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray the Lord that, if possible, the intention of your heart may be forgiven you. Acts 8:23 "For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity." Acts 8:24 But Simon answered and said, "Pray to the Lord for me yourselves, so that nothing of what you have said may come upon me." |
