The routes to Miracle Land

(Elbert Willis first taught Nola and I these lessons about Miracle Land)

Everything in the Bible began and will end with a miracle.

Ex 14:1-31 Moses at the Red Sea

We are in this world but born into another realm as sons of God. God wants you to choose the realm you want to live in! In spite of your situation, God is in charge. God is confident in the power of His Word. When you hear the Word of God it stirs up faith in you to believe for a miracle.

The routes to Miracle Land

1. Miracles are your birthright and your inheritance

John 3:3

The greatest natural miracle takes place when a baby is born. To be born again also takes a miracle.

Once you know this truth it is a route to Miracle Land.

2. God’s ways are higher than our ways

When God told Moses to command Pharaoh to ‘set My people free!’ the only weapon Moses had was a rod. When Joshua faced the great wall of Jericho God told him to command the people to shout and the walls will come down. God’s ways do not fit logic and reason. God’s ways are not even common sense. It is supernatural sense! Jesus was born of a Virgin!

Moses knew the ways of God but Israel only saw His acts. (Ps 103:7) When they were trapped between the Red Sea and the pursuing Egyptian army, Moses cried out to God and God asked him, ‘what is in your hand?’ Then God commanded Moses to stretch out his rod over the Red Sea. It is such a meaningless act in the natural, but because God commanded it, it became a supernatural act that opened the Red Sea so that the people could pass through on dry land! When the Egyptians tried to do it, they were all drowned, because they did not have faith in God.

Most people want a miracle before they really need it. We must learn to trust God long enough to give us a miracle when we really need it. That place is called Miracle Land. Knowing the ways of God is another route to Miracle Land.

The Hebrew children did not need a miracle until the oven door of the fiery furnace was shut and they were in the fire!

Miracle Land is not in the boat, but on the water, walking with Jesus like Peter did! Most believers are jockeying for a better position in the boat instead of stepping out and risking to become a wet water walker with Jesus! Everything on the outside says, ‘No!’ but on the inside everything says ‘Yes!’

God’s power overrides the laws of nature! When Jesus returns we will be caught up to meet Him in the air! If you believe God raised Jesus from the dead, then you can believe in the Rapture. Most people try to explain it away and say there will be no rapture. But the Bible is clear on it and I have no doubt that it will be as the Scripture tells us it will be.

Faith for miracles comes by preaching and teaching about miracles. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Our minds are enlightened and we begin to believe and operate according to God’s Word.

It is countdown time for the King to return! The archangel has his trumpet in his hand. He is about to shout with a loud voice! The heavens are about to open up and the Son is about to appear!

3. Miracle Land is where you can only do one thing: believe God!

It’s no use to keep a back door open because of doubt and unbelief! People come for healing, but they have already decided, ‘if it doesn’t work, I will go to the doctor!’ A double minded man cannot receive anything from God. He is unstable in all his ways.

4. Miracle Land is a place where you stand alone.

The enemy will attack you through your friends. All the ones Moses led murmured against him. In Exodus 13:14 Moses told the people: ‘Fear not! Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord! You will never see the Egyptian army again!’ When he stretched out his rod over the Red Sea, many must have thought it was a foolish act. But what they did not know was that Moses was doing exactly what God told him to do! God acted on his behalf because a man believed God! 

When you can see no way out, it is time to shout and expect God to do something supernatural! When the doctors tell you it is over, the Word declares you healed by the stripes of Jesus! Don’t walk out of Miracle Land – stay there till you have your miracle! It is God’s territory! God is raising up an army of miracle beings! We are learning to believe God at all cost! We are learning to believe God against all odds! We trust God for our daily bread, for our healing, for our protection, for guidance and for prophetic insight into the future! God is our source for everything! He is Jehovah Jireh, the all sufficient One! We are learning that God cares for us!

5. We follow those who through faith and patience inherit the Promises and entered Miracle Land

We serve a miracle working God and we enter Miracle Land by following the routes laid out for us by those who inherited the Promises of God! It is no secret what God can do. What He has done for others, He can do for you. With arms wide open, He’ll pardon you! It is not secret what God can do. The man who wrote that song was down and out and struggling financially. Then these words came into his being and he sat down at the piano and composed that song that brought faith in God to millions of people around the world. It made him a millionaire!
