Christ Is Enough. Scott Pauley

Posted in

Christ is enough, the miracles of Jesus, what is the purpose of of Jesus' miracles, miracles in the Bible

In the face of physical pain, financial hardship, emotional distress, and spiritual conflict there is one truth that always brings faith and courage: Christ is enough.

Christ is more than enough, in fact, for every necessity or any difficulty. Whatever you are dealing with at this time or whoever you are trying to help, remember that divine resources are always sufficient and you have access to them through Jesus Christ.

The message of the whole Bible is one of divine sufficiency, but perhaps nowhere is this emphasis more fully seen than in the miracles of Jesus. I am excited about sharing some meditations from the miracles of Jesus with you over the next few weeks. Each miracle addresses a different need or circumstance but they all have one great message – Christ is enough!

On Monday we begin this brand new series on our Enjoying the Journey broadcast. You may listen on our website or on your favorite podcast player. I hope you will plan to join us for this extended study from the gospel records. It is our prayer that your faith will be strengthened for the days ahead. (This week we will offer a free resource download of a special Bible reading schedule for the miracles of Jesus.)

And who is sufficient for these things?” (2 Corinthians 2:16). “Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God” (2 Corinthians 3:5).

A journey through 1 John reveals our place in the family of God, how we can have assurance, and that our joy is rooted in Christ.

Journey through 1 John

“Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.” (John 1:47-48)

Why the Story of Nathanael Sitting Under the Fig Tree Matters

It also discusses the Four Sermons in Haggai It is in that context that God raises up the prophet Haggai with four sermons in four months. The Word of the Lord comes to Haggai, and he preaches four sermons. Each one of them is dated for us. Each sermon targets a different problem. You can read them in Haggai chapters one and two. In his first sermon (Haggai 1:1-15), Haggai preached on the danger of waiting when we should be working. They were waiting for a sign to build. He said, You don't need a sign, you need to obey God. Haggai's second sermon (Haggai 2:1-9) explained the danger of lamenting the past and missing the present. They were sorrowing over the destruction of the past temple. God said, Build a new one. It was G. Campbell Morgan who said, “It is impossible to unlock the present with the rusty key of the past." Many people are bogged down in their past and miss the present. Keep in mind what is at hand and what is ahead. The third sermon he preached (Haggai 2:10-19) described the danger of seeing only the material and neglecting the supernatural. They could see the work that needed to be done, but they missed the fact that God had resources that would help them get it done. The Lord was behind all of this. The fourth sermon (Haggai 2:20-23) warned against the danger of recognizing who is against us and forgetting who is for us. They were concentrating on the opposition and forgetting that “greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). A journey through Haggai shows us the importance of performing the work that God has told us to do, and His glory in our obedience. Image leads to an overview of Haggai
