What Does the Bible Say About Miracles?

The Bible records God working miracles throughout its pages, from creation to the resurrection, revealing his power and pointing people to himself. The greatest miracles centre on Jesus, whose signs testified to who he was and climaxed in his rising from the dead. Scripture presents God as fully able to do the impossible, while never reducing faith to a demand for wonders.

What Scripture says

Here are real verses on miracles, each in the King James Version, with a word on what it means.

Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?Jeremiah 32:27 (KJV)

Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh; is there any thing too hard for me?

For with God nothing shall be impossible.Luke 1:37 (KJV)

For with God nothing shall be impossible.

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.Matthew 19:26 (KJV)

With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.

And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:John 20:30 (KJV)

Many other signs truly did Jesus, which are not written in this book.

Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:Acts 2:22 (KJV)

Jesus, a man approved of God by miracles and wonders and signs which God did by him.

Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.Mark 9:23 (KJV)

If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

What this means for you today

The Bible presents miracles as real acts of God's power, most often given to reveal his glory and confirm his message, not as entertainment or magic. The resurrection of Jesus stands as the central miracle of the faith.

God is still able to do the impossible, and we are invited to pray with faith. Yet Jesus gently warned against a faith that only wants signs. True faith trusts God's goodness whether or not he grants the wonder we ask for.

The deepest answer is Jesus

The greatest miracle of all is Jesus rising from the dead, God's guarantee that nothing, not even death, is beyond his power.

Every one of these Scriptures points beyond itself to a Person. The deepest answer the Bible gives to any human need is not a rule or a technique but Jesus Christ, who came, lived, died, and rose again so that you could be forgiven and brought home to God. He said, Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Whatever you are carrying, you do not have to carry it alone, and you do not have to make yourself clean first. You can come to him today, just as you are.

This is the good news the whole Bible is telling. We were made for God, we have all turned from him and gone our own way, and none of us can fix that on our own. But God did not leave us there. Out of love he sent his Son to take our place, bearing our wrong on the cross and rising again to open the way back to the Father. Everyone who turns to Jesus and trusts him is forgiven, given new life, and welcomed as a beloved child of God, held by a love that will never let go. That is why the Bible's answer to every topic on this page finally leads here. You can respond right now, in your own words, simply telling God you need him and asking Jesus to be your Saviour and Lord. He hears the honest prayer of anyone who comes.
