Ever since the fall of man which led to the ground being cursed for his sake, it has become a matter of divine intervention for him to prosper. Only by divine intervention also known as miracles, can man prosper with ease. In 2 Kings 6:24-30, Samaria was under siege and people could not go out to farm or trade. This resulted in a great famine, which became so severe that people started killing their children for food. The situation brought desperation for a miracle in the city of Samaria.

The undeniable truth is that everyone needs a miracle at one time or another whether physical, psychological, material, financial or even more importantly, spiritual. King David knew this and wrote "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want" (Psalms 23:1).

Who is your shepherd? If the Lord is indeed your Shepherd, then you are a candidate for miracles. This Lord is the owner of the cattle upon a thousand hills, according to Psalms 50:10-11:
“For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills. I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the field are mine.”

As we read in 2 Kings 7:1-6, the people of Samaria desperately needed a miracle and they were so blessed that a prophet lived in their midst. The prophet declared the word of God but it was too good for a member of the kings’ cabinet to believe and this was to his peril. We need to have faith in God when we are in need of divine intervention (a miracle). The Bible says in 2nd Chronicles 20:20
...Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.

Beloved, do you need a miracle? Fulfill God’s conditions by obeying all His commandments which include accepting Jesus Christ as your Saviour, living holy, faithful payment of your tithes, cheerful giving of offerings, honoring Him (God) with your first fruits, and so on.

Trust God for your all-round blessing and you will surely see His glory.
