2 Peter 2:13 “And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet.17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.”
When I first began to walk with God, I would see all the great miracles performed by either God and the Prophets. I would say to myself, I want to do that or that. Wouldn’t it be great to do those miracles. I asked God about doing those miracles and He said yes. He said first I have to be crossing a desert with 2 million people and being chased by the Egyptian army, or run into an opposing army by myself or living in the backside of a desert in the middle of a 3 year old famine. The miracles in the bible are for the people who are in the middle of the situation. God wants to give us have signs and wonders and miracles, but you have to understand. They are for the work of the kingdom. They are not performed as a sideshow to be entertaining. They are the tools for the work in the Kingdom of God. And you may have anyone of them that you need. All you have to do is ask.
