3. Miracles Give Us Courage
It’s hugely important that we tell others about the miracles God has done and is doing—these are our testimonies, and they’re made for sharing. Why do we have to keep repeating stories we’ve already heard? Because our memories are short! Think about it—would you remember all your friends’ birthdays without Facebook reminding you? Maybe, maybe not, but the reminder sure helps you plan the party or buy the present!
Sharing testimonies reminds us how amazing our heavenly Father is and how special we are as sons and daughters of the King. Remembering how God’s power destroys the works of the devil gives us courage to bravely face down the enemy. In the Old Testament, there was a group of brave warriors—the sons of Ephraim. They were powerful fighters, but on the day the battle started, they panicked and ran. Why? The Bible says, “They did not keep God’s covenant and refused to live by His instructions. They forgot what He had done—the great wonders He had shown them, the miracles He did for their ancestors” (Ps. 78:10-12). When the sons of Ephraim forgot how powerful their God was, they forgot who they were. They lost their courage to fight and win the battle.
