How do we know that Jesus' miracles confirm His divinity?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus' miracles serve as divine confirmations of His identity and His work, affirming Him as God in the flesh.

Throughout the Gospel of Luke, the miracles performed by Jesus act as divine confirmations of His person and work. For instance, when He heals the man with the withered hand in Luke 6:6-11, He demonstrates not only His power over physical ailments but also His authority over the law and death. These miracles are not merely acts of sympathy; they illustrate God's sovereign grace in action, picturing how God saves sinners. Jesus Himself asserts that if people do not believe in Him, they should believe for the sake of the works He performs, which validate His divine mission and identity as the Messiah. This understanding reinforces the historic Reformed view of Jesus as the ultimate revelation of God, emphasizing the importance of His miracles in affirming His divine authority and the reality of salvation.
