After I was delivered from a 1 yr breakdown, I still had a tobacco addiction I couldn't overcome.
I confessed it with sisters in faith & they gave me verses & prayed for me to overcome tobacco.
After a long time, I gave up and claimed victory verses out loud and sang them. (After I had tobacco.) "I am not under the law of sin and death, I am under the Grace of God. In everything I do in word or deed, I will do in the name of my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ." I sang that out loud.
A couple days later, I questioned God why I have not had any tobacco? My husband came home from work & complained about me and my faith in God. I defended my self by my fleshly responses. Didn't help. I ended up sitting on the covered toilet seat crying then really wanting some tobacco. I recognized it clearly. The verse came to mind, "Without faith it is impossible to please God, for those who come to Him must believe that God Is, and is a rewarder to those who diligently seek Him." Then I recognized that I doubted who my Savior was. So I repented, and confessed that He Is who He says He Is and that God loves me and will never leave or forsake me. You love me God. That is what matters."
With that submission to God, the tempting desire for tobacco left.
A few months later, I tried to let some family know how God delivered me from tobacco, where they got mad at me. And the same sort of thing spiritually happened, where I repented to God & confessed that God is who He says He Is & God loves me & that is what matters.
That is the last time I had the nicotine nag. But the last time I had tobacco was when I sang that song claiming that I wasn't under law, I was under Grace and to do things in my Saviors name. The two temptations that followed was when people I cared about discredited me & my faith, and my faith lapsed.
There are many times that God has answered my prayers. Usually there are follow up confirmation that the answer is from God.

As a Christian I'm embarrassed through televangelists. Here's the common sense I've arise with. If donating to them will develop my prosperity one hundred fold, then perhaps they must be giving cash to me so they are able to obtain the one hundred fold. Prayer cloths are a replica cat of what the Apostle Paul did within the New Testament. His had been reliable now not a cash making gimmick

The miracle I will tell you took place on my wife. My wife and I are one. My wife had three fibriods and conceived and her gynacologist Doctor said she will be operated. My wife and I said no. We said to God that He should show that He is a God of miracle. God answered us and our baby is now1yr 11months. Is that not a living miracle? I was jobless and I prayed and I know that where I am working now is God's answered prayers but I know He is reserving something more than what I am doing now.
My dear, it is not a lie, God is alive.The miracles He operated in the past He is still doing it today. You need only to believe in Him.

I wouldn't call it a miracle, exactly, and it wasn't Jesus speaking. When I finally embraced Wicca as my path, I asked the god and goddess for a sign that this was right for me. A short while later, I stepped outside and saw a beautiful quadruple rainbow in the sky. Couldn't ask for a much clearer sign than that.

Way to many to list.
All my life there were miracles, many happen in unusually ways.
But as each experience pass I gain stronger in knowledge and understanding, I knew most of all of them was from God. Especially the last five or six years, God shape and molded me like clay in his hands, he squeezed the resentment all of me, teach me, cared for me through suffering. God knew me better than I did, he knew what was buried in my heart, and what I had to go through to get there, to be the best that he knew that I was and that I am.

I rarely pray for things for my self other than wisdom and guidance, when I turned to Christ, He healed me of homosexuality, drug addiction, alcoholism and many other things. As I have grown spiritually, I have learned that the best things to pray for are wisdom and guidance, pray for others, pray for my family. God blesses whom He will, in other words, He will bless some but not others according to what He wants for them in thier life.

Don't assume I turned my life to Jesus. IF and when that happens, I'll tell you. But I wouldn't hold my breath, if I were you...

I asked God to fix the transmission on my car, and He did! This is a totally true story. God does exist. Trust me on this one. The Bible is true and Satan is watching you!
