Then I thought, “To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand. I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.” Your ways, God, are holy. What god is as great as our God? You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.
Greetings,
My Beloved!
I am
having such a refreshed week, after a beautiful weekend spent with my husband
in the hill country. I am so blessed to have such an amazing man of God for my
husband! We spent the weekend seeking God for direction for our life, as we
embark this new journey, leaping out in faith to do the work for the Kingdom of
God! Last week, I spoke about my despair of this Nation, and how God brought
hope. Today, I would like to continue the thought about the Holiness of God! He
is so Holy! To think about the wonderful deeds God has done. Can you think of a
moment where God performed a miracle in your life? I think just the salvation
experience alone is an amazing miracle. The fact that God reached out to me in
the darkest moment of my life, when I was living a life full of sin and
disregard was a miracle. The fact that God did not turn His back on me, even
when I turned my back on Him was a miracle. The fact that I deserved the death
on the cross, as the wages of the sin in my life was death. However, He took my
place on the cross, as an innocent, and did that to wash away the sin in my
life. He paid the debt so that I may live. Isn't that a beautiful picture!
Isaiah
53:4-6
Surely
he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished
by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our
transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought
us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have
gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.
Can
you think of a time in which God has healed you? It may seem minor, but when I
was at camp, I woke up with a horrible headache. Being at camp, in the heat
with a whole bunch of kids, is not the best place to have a headache. I walked
over to the nurse’s cabin to get a pain reliever. I ran into Olivia, who prayed
for my headache. I went back to my cabin to get the girls up and ready for the
day. Guess what happened? The minute I walked into the cabin, my headache was
gone. No pain reliever can work that fast, but I know a God that can heal!
Think
about the miracles in your life. I know that my son was a miracle. I always
say, if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have turned my life around. He is a
miracle, and I enjoy watching him grow into a fine young man! I believe that
God performed a miracle in bringing me my husband! God worked a miracle in our
marriage; it isn't the same because God is a miracle working God!
Let
us think about all of the marvelous things God has done, and sing praises to
Him! When you worship God through song, thank Him for the wonderful things He
has done in your life.
This week, I found this song by Kim Walker Smith from Jesus Culture. It is called Miracle Maker. I was so blessed by it, I just know you will be, too. Listen to this song, and prepare your heart to worship, because I promise you, you can't listen to this song, and not be moved to worship!
Blessings!
