A miracle must be protected or maintained, lest you lose it. Satan hates miracles because they testify of God’s superior power and glory. They expose the devil’s lies and reveal that he is defeated. The enemy tried to kill Lazarus through the Jewish leader after Jesus brought him back to life because His testimony would give glory to God and bring more people to Him. 

John 11:45 Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what he did, believed in him, 46 but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. 47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered the council and said, “What are we to do? For this man performs many signs. 48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him,

So, you must fight to maintain or keep your testimony and miracle. In the same way that you maintain your Christian life, you must maintain God’s miracle as well. Jesus gave people instructions on how to keep their miracles. He instructed the disabled man who was healed at the pool; “you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you.” (John 5:14). In this article, you will learn four things that you need to do to keep your miracles and walk in it.

I say walk in it because the word miracle is general. Some of what we call miracles are actually healings. The difference is that miracles interrupt the natural process and are usually instant; in contrast, a healing follows the natural process where a sickness that could not cure begins to heal naturally after prayer.

Here are the four things that you need to do to walk in the light of your miracle:

#1 Praise God for your healing: As soon as you are prayed for, and the faith action is performed, you must immediately acknowledge your healing by thanking God and by confessing your healing. You must declare; “Praise God I am healed and thank you Jesus for healing me”

You receive healing the same way, you receive salvation. Some people have had dramatic experiences accompanying their salvation, others got saved quietly. In the same way, for some people, the healing is dramatic, where they feel a reaction in their body and know that it has happened, but for others, they don’t feel anything and yet healing has taken place.

Peter helped the man up in Acts 3:7 because he was already healed and did not realize it. Celebrate God for your healing whether you feel it or not.

#2 Align your confession: The scriptures say, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue…” (Proverbs 18:21). Use the power of your tongue to give life to your testimony and your miracle by confessing it. Align your mouth with the Word of God concerning your healing. Always say what the Word of God says. Don’t change your confession no matter what happens.

#3. Resist the devil: The enemy will try to convince you that nothing really happened when they healed you at the Healing Clinic. You didn’t really receive your healing. He can even simulate some symptoms. All that is a strategy to break your faith and steal your miracle, as he confused Peter and prevented him from walking in faith by raising a storm. The devil is a liar, and nothing that he says is true. The Word of God says to resist him. Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7) Listen to what the Word of God says, fight and oppose the devil, and the scripture says that he will run away from you. He will pack his symptoms and leave you alone. How do you resist the devil? Stand your ground by confessing what the Word of God says just like Jesus did when He was tempted by the enemy.

#4 Exercise your Faith: 2 Corinthians 2:5 says, “for we walk by faith, not by sight.” Everything we do must be by faith. You walk by faith by basing all your actions on the truth of the word of God and not our feelings or what we see with our physical eyes. You exercise your faith when you know that God has said you are healed by doing what you have done before due to your condition. You exercise your legs where they said you could not walk. Especially in the case of healing, you must exercise your faith until the healing process is completed. Jesus instructed the lepers to go and present themselves before the priests. This seems to be a simple instruction, but it actually requires faith. A leper would go to the priest, who was like the doctor who would declare you healed. There was still evidence of leprosy on them when Jesus sent them to go and confirm their healing before the priest. The scriptures say, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.”. And as they went, they were cleansed. (Luke 17:14). Their healing manifested while they were going or applying faith.
