Miracle is the last refuge against boredom. A highly expensive card that gives you another (slightly) randomized card on play, it guarantees a wild experience every time, and is not nearly as reliable as its compatriots Tribute or Holy Wrath in terms of ending the game or controlling the board. It attempts to read the board and give you a card that you "need" but this is a dubious process, and don't expect it to pull a silver bullet every time or even half of it. What it is, though, is a fine second-wave card for economy ramps once you've established control, as the card advantage this slathers on your deck quickly gets out of control.
Miracle is a win condition and an expensive one, so it requires a solid economy building up to it. Usury, Wealthy Patron and the rest of the usual suspects are recommended. It also has strong synergy with Sibylline Scrolls, as it can both redraw it quickly and pass over options Miracle has given you that are less than optimal (like Carnage, long-charge incantations, or Dire Boars). Pocchi in particular runs a strong enough economy to play with it more than anyone else.
Miracle is fundamentally unreliable at heart, but incredibly great fun. Because of that, saving up for it first or, even worse, Loaning into it tend to be exercises in frustration. Establish your board and economy first before you spin the wheel.
