Bible Verses About Miracles: Convincing effect of miracles

Moshe told him everything ADONAI had said in sending him, including all the signs he had ordered him to perform.

Then Moshe and Aharon went and gathered together all the leaders of the people of Isra'el.

Aharon said everything ADONAI had told Moshe, who then performed the signs for the people to see.

The people believed; when they heard that ADONAI had remembered the people of Isra'el and seen how they were oppressed, they bowed their heads and worshipped.

Pharaoh's servants said to him, "How much longer must this fellow be a snare for us? Let the people go and worship ADONAI their God. Don't you understand yet that Egypt is being destroyed?"

Pharaoh hurried to summon Moshe and Aharon and said, "I have sinned against ADONAI your God and against you.

Now, therefore, please forgive my sin just this once; and intercede with ADONAI your God, so that he will at least take away from me this deadly plague!"

He summoned Moshe and Aharon by night and said, "Up and leave my people, both you and the people of Isra'el; and go, serve ADONAI as you said.

Take both your flocks and your herds, as you said; and get out of here! But bless me, too."

The Egyptians pressed to send the people out of the land quickly, because they said, "Otherwise we'll all be dead!"

He caused the wheels of their chariots to break off, so that they could move only with difficulty. The Egyptians said, "ADONAI is fighting for Isra'el against the Egyptians! Let's get away from them!"

When Isra'el saw the mighty deed that ADONAI had performed against the Egyptians, the people feared ADONAI, and they believed in ADONAI and in his servant Moshe.

Gid'on replied, "If indeed you favor me, would you mind giving me a sign that it is really you talking with me?

Please don't leave until I go and return with a gift and present it to you." He replied, "I'll wait till you come back."

Gid'on went in, cooked a young goat and made matzot from a bushel of flour. He put the meat in a basket and the broth in a pot, brought them out to him under the pistachio tree and presented them.

The angel of God said to him, "Take the meat and matzot, lay them on this rock, and pour out the broth." Gid'on did so.

Then the angel of ADONAI reached out with the stick he was holding, touched the meat and matzot, and fire shot up out of the rock and burned up the meat and matzot. Then the angel of ADONAI disappeared before his eyes.

Gid'on realized that he was the angel of ADONAI and said, "Oh no! My Lord! ADONAI! Because I've seen the angel of ADONAI face-to-face!"

Gid'on said to God, "If you are going to save Isra'el through me, as you said you would,

then, here: I will lay a wool fleece on the threshing-floor; if there is dew on the fleece only, while all the ground stays dry, I will be convinced that you will save Isra'el through me, as you said you would."

And it happened! He got up early in the morning, pressed the fleece together and wrung dew out of it, a bowlful of water.

But Gid'on said to God, "Don't be angry with me because I am asking one more thing, let me make one more test, please: this time let it be dry only on the fleece, with dew all over the ground."

And that is what God did that night - it was dry only on the fleece, even though there was dew all over the ground.

N'vukhadnetzar said, "Blessed be the God of Shadrakh, Meishakh and 'Aved-N'go! He sent his angel to deliver his servants who trusted in him. They defied the royal order to the point of being willing to give up their bodies, in order not to serve or worship any god but their own God.
