I. Supernatural God A. God is and has always been supernatural. Jeremiah 32:20-21 You performed miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt and have continued them to this day, both in Israel and among all mankind, and have gained the renown that is still yours. 21 You brought your people Israel out of Egypt with signs and wonders, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and with great terror. Exo 34:10 Then the LORD said: "I am making a covenant with you. Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the LORD, will do for you. Deu 4:34 Has any god ever tried to take for himself one nation out of another nation, by testings, by miraculous signs and wonders, by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, or by great and awesome deeds, like all the things the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your very eyes? 2Sa 7:23 And who is like your people Israel—the one nation on earth that God went out to redeem as a people for himself, and to make a name for himself, and to perform great and awesome wonders by driving out nations and their gods from before your people, whom you redeemed from Egypt? Job 5:9 He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. Psalms 78:4 We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD, his power, and the wonders he has done. Psa 78:11 They forgot what he had done, the wonders he had shown them. Psa 78:32 In spite of all this, they kept on sinning; in spite of his wonders, they did not believe. 1

Psa 105:5 Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced, Psa 136:4 to him who alone does great wonders, His love endures forever. Dan 4:2 It is my pleasure to tell you about the miraculous signs and wonders that the Most High God has performed for me. Dan 4:3 How great are his signs, how mighty his wonders! His kingdom is an eternal kingdom; his dominion endures from generation to generation. Dan 6:27 He rescues and he saves; he performs signs and wonders in the heavens and on the earth. He has rescued Daniel from the power of the lions." Joe 2:26 You will have plenty to eat, until you are full, and you will praise the name of the LORD your God, who has worked wonders for you; never again will my people be shamed.

B. At the level we understand supernatural (and stand in awe of God) today on planet earth will all change to a completely different understanding in the heavens and earth. Back to the original garden Supernatural man Genesis 1: 26-27 26 Then God said, "Let us make man in Our image, in Our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground." 27 So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Gen 3:22 And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of Us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever."
