First I want to say that I believe anything that happened to or was promised to people in the bible, can happen today. That why I love this verse in Acts 14!!! Look at this....
"So Paul and Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by enabling them to perform signs and wonders."
Acts 14:3
How awesome is that??? Why don't we believe for that? Why is that so hard for us to grasp? Paul or Barnabas are no different than you or I. They were just regular guys. There is no reason we can't do the same signs and wonders NOW! If our hearts and minds are lined up with Him and His will...anything is possible!!
But there is a verse that I think is even more of the key to seeing signs and wonders in 2013. Look at verse 27, "They gathered the church together and reported all that God had done through them and how He had opened a door of faith for the Gentiles."
As the church, we have to share the things that He does for us and through us. Because think about that for a second, let's say I laid hands on someone and they were healed. That would be amazing, but hard for me to believe. But if I went to church, and heard of 10 different people who had the same experience....wouldn't it be easier to grasp that it was possible?? Plus we are called to be inspirations to each other, to push each other to want to see more from Him each day. And the only way we can do that is to share and tell of His wondrous works!
Oh yeah as a bonus woohoo....look back at verse 3...the message of grace.....doesn't that warm your heart? It sure does mine today!!!
