2. Exodus 14:21-22 (NIV)

“Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the Lord drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left.”

The parting of the Red Sea is one of the most famous miracles in the Bible. It showcases God’s power to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles and deliver His people from certain destruction.

3. Joshua 10:12-14 (NIV)

“On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel: ‘Sun, stand still over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.’ So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies.”

Joshua asked God to make the sun stand still in the sky to allow the Israelites more time to defeat their enemies. God answered this extraordinary request, showing His dominion over time itself.

4. 1 Kings 17:8-16 (NIV)

“The jar of flour was not used up and the jug of oil did not run dry, in keeping with the word of the Lord spoken by Elijah.”

Elijah performs a miracle in the home of a widow during a time of drought. God miraculously sustains her and her son through an unending supply of flour and oil, demonstrating His provision in times of scarcity.

5. 2 Kings 4:1-7 (NIV)

“Elisha said, ‘Go around and ask all your neighbors for empty jars. Don’t ask for just a few. Then go inside and shut the door behind you and your sons. Pour oil into all the jars, and as each is filled, put it to one side.'”

In this miracle, God multiplies the widow’s oil, filling numerous jars with oil that had no natural source. This miraculous provision serves as a reminder of God’s abundant provision.

6. 2 Kings 6:5-7 (NIV)

“As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axhead fell into the water. ‘Oh no, my lord!’ he cried out. ‘It was borrowed!’ The man of God asked, ‘Where did it fall?’ When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float.”

When an axhead falls into the water, Elisha performs a miracle by making the iron float, demonstrating that God can work in the smallest, most practical matters of life.

7. Matthew 14:25-31 (NIV)

“During the fourth watch of the night Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. ‘It’s a ghost,’ they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: ‘Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.'”

Jesus walking on water is a miracle that demonstrates His divine authority over nature. It also serves as a reminder that Jesus is ever-present, even in the most frightening situations.

8. Matthew 14:19-21 (NIV)

“And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.”

The feeding of the 5,000 with five loaves and two fish is a powerful reminder of God’s supernatural provision. This miracle demonstrates that God can multiply what seems insufficient to meet the needs of many.

9. Luke 1:37 (NIV)

“For no word from God will ever fail.”

This verse reminds us of the supernatural power of God’s Word. When God speaks, His promises are certain and His miracles are guaranteed to come to pass.

10. Luke 7:11-15 (NIV)

“Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out—the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, ‘Don’t cry.’ Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on, and the bearers stood still. He said, ‘Young man, I say to you, get up!'”

In this passage, Jesus performs the miracle of raising a dead man to life, showing that He has power even over death itself. This miracle serves as a sign of the resurrection power that Jesus offers to all who believe in Him.

11. John 2:1-11 (NIV)

“When the wine was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, ‘They have no more wine.’ ‘Woman, why do you involve me?’ Jesus replied. ‘My hour has not yet come.’ His mother said to the servants, ‘Do whatever he tells you.'”

The miracle at the wedding in Cana, where Jesus turns water into wine, is the first recorded miracle of Jesus. It demonstrates His power to transform and provide abundantly.

12. John 11:43-44 (NIV)

“When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, ‘Lazarus, come out!’ The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, ‘Take off the grave clothes and let him go.'”

The resurrection of Lazarus is one of the most significant supernatural miracles of Jesus. This miracle foreshadows the power of Jesus’ own resurrection and serves as a testimony to His power over death.

13. Mark 5:25-34 (NIV)

“And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, because she thought, ‘If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.’ Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.”

This miraculous healing of the woman with the issue of blood shows Jesus’ power to heal even those who have suffered for many years. Her faith in Jesus brought about her healing.

14. Matthew 9:27-30 (NIV)

“As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, ‘Have mercy on us, Son of David!’ When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him, and he asked them, ‘Do you believe that I am able to do this?’ ‘Yes, Lord,’ they replied. Then he touched their eyes and said, ‘According to your faith let it be done to you’; and their sight was restored.”

Jesus demonstrates His power to heal physical blindness, but also highlights the importance of faith in receiving miracles.

15. Acts 3:6-8 (NIV)

“Then Peter said, ‘Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.’ Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong.”

Peter and John heal a lame man at the temple gate, demonstrating the miraculous power available through faith in the name of Jesus.

16. Acts 5:15-16 (NIV)

“As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by. Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by impure spirits, and all of them were healed.”

The apostles performed many miraculous healings, and even Peter’s shadow was used by God to bring healing to the sick.

17. Acts 9:36-42 (NIV)

“Peter sent them all out of the room; then he got down on his knees and prayed. Turning toward the dead woman, he said, ‘Tabitha, get up.’ She opened her eyes, and seeing Peter she sat up.”

Peter performs a miracle by raising Tabitha from the dead, demonstrating the power of God working through His followers.

18. Luke 8:40-56 (NIV)

“While Jesus was still speaking, someone came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue leader. ‘Your daughter is dead,’ he said. ‘Don’t bother the teacher anymore.’ Hearing this, Jesus said to Jairus, ‘Don’t be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.'”

Jesus raises Jairus’ daughter from the dead, showing His power over death and His compassion toward those in need.
