The above is from God.

It’s not just the past was a time for miracles; but that He’s still a God of miracles, now.

Malachi 3:6 God doesn’t change. So if He didn’t lie before, He never will lie.

Hebrews 8:6

We have a better covenant via Jesus Christ than the Old Testament covenant.

Jeremiah 33:3

God invited Jeremiah to believe big and in big miracles, especially in a time that was challenging.

Major point: Prayer is powerful and it is important.

Point #1: Prayer is a privilege.

Prayer is talking to the God of the miraculous. It is a privilege to pray. Not a chore. God wants to connect with you.

Cases of answered prayer in the Bible:

Checkpoint: this is a faith-building time.

Consider Elijah. He prayed for rain and it rained.

Consider David. He dealt with fear but yet he called out to God.

Point #3: Prayer is power.

When you pray, power rises, the atmosphere is changed. Pray, and you will receive power. Don’t listen to Satan who will try to discourage you.

Jeremiah 33:3 call to God. He will show you great and mighty things. Prayer is power.
