We all associate miracles with the Bible. But actually, if you leave out conversations with God and His angels, the Bible does not talk about very many miracles. Almost all of the miracles are concentrated in the times of Moses, Elijah/Elisha, and Jesus. Yet though miracles are not a typical feature of Israelite history, any more than they are a typical feature of everyday experience for modern American Christians, they are still a very important part of the Biblical witness. And today we are going to talk about miracles and what they are for. Our passage tells how God gave Moses 3 miracles that he could perform to elicit faith from the hearts of his people. And brothers and sisters, that is what miracles teach. They vouch for the reality of God and genuineness of His messengers. Of course, the signs themselves also teach important lessons, and we'll look at those. But the biggest lesson of these miracles is that God really spoke to Moses at the burning bush, and the biggest lesson of miracles in general is that God is saving the world, turning it into a new creation through the work of His Son Jesus.
