I have written on miracles the last two days and I want to continue that today. I am praying for people right now that needs a miracle of health. The doctor's report wasn't the best, but God has a plan. I was talking with someone and they said it's hard to hold on. He is trying to stay positive but the daily change in his body shows him someone is happening. This person is a young adult. Doing his best not to let fear overtake him. When holding on for a miracle, you must tell yourself this: For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind ~ 2 Timothy 1:7 King James Version
Nothing is impossible with God ~ Mark 10:27
It is good to remind yourself of the things God has already done in your life. Small miracles of daily living and huge miracles too. Can you recall a time in your life that you waited on something, but didn't think would happen? Now you can look back and see how God directed your life. I can look back and see how many things I know God just handled for me. Even in the times of why or how come this happen God? My questions are answered by it's God plan and yes he continues to do miracles.
My example when I was about 8-9 years old. My mom and I was visiting at her friend's house. A boy on a roof threw off a plastic item. It hit me in the head and my head started bleeding right away. My mom put a small towel on it and we went home. I began to cry and say just pray. I had been in a church service with her and heard the Pastor speak on faith. Making a longer story short, my dad was not a believer of Jesus. I ask my mom to call the Pastor to come pray and God would make the hole go away. So she did and they cleaned it up. A bandage was put on it and my mom would clean it later that night. When she went to clean it, it was was gone. No hole in my head and no scar at all. My dad was shocked and said, "how did this happen"? My mom said, "it was a miracle".
Keep in mind that I didn't attend a church on a regular bases. I was just a kid that went with my mom a few times. It was in those few times that I remember only one service. It was the service of the importance of having faith and knowing God does miracles. A small kid who listened and retained a message that God would grow as I got older. My faith has becomes big in my life. I've seen so much and I know that God is able.
Ephesians 3:20-21 New International Version (NIV)Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
I am not sure what you are waiting on today, but wait. Last night I was leading a class of women who watched a DVD by Priscilla Shirer. The title is, "One in a Million". An amazing study if you ever get a chance to listen to it. Moses said four things:
BE FEARLESS
BE STILL
BE WATCHFUL
BE SILENT
She also mention this: God says ~ What you are concerned about, concerns me.
I have found in my life, that hard stuff stirs my soul to pray. Hard stuff stirs my faith to reach more to God. God has a way of bringing our lives together and prayer does make a difference. Holding on for a great report and what happens if it doesn't turn the way you think? You continue to hold onto God because we need him in every part of our lives. We know he is able to help us in all situations of life. Our thoughts, our prayers, our decisions, and our trust in him makes a big difference.
I pray daily for the readers of my blog (YOU), your family and friends. Thank you for taking the time to read this and pass it on to your friends. Let us live in hope and rest that God has this day in his plan for your life.
