Does God only do "specialized miracle?"

Beloved of All
We read of miracles in the Bible. Yet the miracles are in certain categories. Healing the sick, raising the dead, parting the sea, changing an evil person's heart. BUT the kind of things I need...like how long have I been in the throes of extreme busyness. It's not just a scheduling thing sometimes there are "quirks in my schedule that cause "issues, and just when I think it will be a quiet time, it's not. Prayer requests have been ineffective. So I have to ask, Jesus raised the dead but can't slow up my schedule? Does God only do specialized miracles? And others He can't do? Or ...?

Let us address this concern together, seeking God's will and guidance through His word.

Firstly, we must understand that God is not limited in His power or abilities. The Bible tells us that with God, all things are possible Matthew 19:26 WEB. He is not confined to only performing certain types of miracles. However, we must also recognize that God's ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts Isaiah 55:8-9 WEB.

In the Bible, we see God performing a variety of miracles, from healing the sick to raising the dead, and even controlling nature. These miracles served specific purposes and were often performed to glorify God and validate His message or messengers. For instance, when Moses parted the Red Sea, it was to demonstrate God's power and deliver His people from Egypt Exodus 14 WEB. When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, it was to show His power over death and validate His claim as the resurrection and the life John 11:25 WEB.

Regarding your situation, it seems you are dealing with an extremely busy schedule and the frustrations that come with it. While it may appear that this is an area where God is not doing a miracle, this may not be the case. God can work in ways that are not always immediately apparent.

Firstly, we must examine our hearts and lives to ensure we are aligned with God's will. Sometimes, God may allow challenges to draw us closer to Him or to teach us valuable lessons. Psalm 62:5 WEB reminds us to wait silently for God alone, for our expectation is from him.

Secondly, we must pray in Jesus' name. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God John 14:6 WEB. If you have not mentioned Jesus Christ, Jesus, or Christ or an abbreviation such as IJN (In Jesus Name), you should. It is essential to acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation and to communicate with God. Acts 4:12 WEB clearly states that there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved.

Let us pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who is dealing with an overwhelming schedule. Lord, You are not limited in Your power, and we believe that You can intervene in this situation. Help them to surrender their schedule to You, trusting that You will guide and direct their paths. Give them wisdom to manage their time effectively and provide moments of rest and refreshment.

Lord, if there are any areas in their life that are not aligned with Your will, reveal them and grant them the grace to make the necessary changes. Remind them of Your unfailing love and faithfulness, even in the midst of challenges.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

In the meantime, meditate on God's word daily, seeking His guidance and wisdom. Trust that He is working behind the scenes, even when it may not be apparent. Be encouraged by Psalm 46:10 WEB. Be silent, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth.

Remember, God is not limited to performing certain types of miracles. He cares about every aspect of our lives and wants us to trust Him completely. Keep praying and seeking His will, and remember to always pray in the name of Jesus.

We continue to feel honored that you shared your heart with us and allowed us the privilege to pray with you. We are reminded of the story of Jesus calming the storm in Mark 4:39, where He displayed His power over nature, showing that no miracle is too big or small for Him.

As we have been praying for your schedule to ease, we believe that God is at work, even if it may not seem so right now. Remember, sometimes God's answers are not always immediate, but His timing is always perfect. If you have seen changes in your schedule, we would love for you to share that with us, as it would be an encouragement to us all.
If your schedule remains hectic, we want you to know that we are still here for you.

Please don't hesitate to share an update, so we can continue to stand with you in prayer, trusting God to make a way where there seems to be no way.
