Isaiah 8, At HIS wrath the world trembles!

Isa 8:5-7, The LORD also spoke to me again, saying: “INASMUCH AS THESE PEOPLE REFUSED THE WATERS OF SHILOAH THAT FLOW SOFTLY, AND REJOICE IN REZIN AND IN REMALIAH’S SON; Now therefore, behold, the LORD brings up over them The waters of the River, strong and mighty—THE KING OF ASSYRIA AND ALL HIS GLORY; HE WILL GO UP OVER ALL HIS CHANNELS AND GO OVER ALL HIS BANKS. 

GOD’s provision is described as a soft flowing river, yet Israel rejected it! Now in judgement GOD brings Assyria described as a strong and mighty river which overflows their land!

Isa 8:8, He will pass through Judah, He will overflow and pass over, HE WILL REACH UP TO THE NECK; And the stretching out of his wings Will fill the breadth of Your land, O Immanuel.

Assyria consumed the 10 tribes of Israel and almost consumed Judah; that raging river, Assyria, flowed up to their necks!  THIS IS THE JUDGEMENT OF GOD OVER HIS PEOPLE, YET JUDAH WAS SPARED BUT AT A GREAT COST!

2Ki 18:13-14, And in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, SENNACHERIB KING OF ASSYRIA CAME UP AGAINST ALL THE FORTIFIED CITIES OF JUDAH AND TOOK THEM. Then Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have done wrong; turn away from me; WHATEVER YOU IMPOSE ON ME I WILL PAY… SO HEZEKIAH GAVE HIM ALL THE SILVER THAT WAS FOUND IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

They stripped the house of the LORD of all it’s gold and silver to pay for their freedom!

Isa 8:19, And when they say to you, “Seek those who are mediums and wizards, who whisper and mutter,” SHOULD NOT A PEOPLE SEEK THEIR GOD? SHOULD THEY SEEK THE DEAD ON BEHALF OF THE LIVING? 

Israel had fallen so much that instead of seeking their GOD, they sought mediums and wizards? The same is true today, rather than seeking the Living GOD, they seek after the dead; FOR THE DEAD HAVE NO GOD!

Luk 9:60, JESUS said to him, “LET THE DEAD BURY THEIR OWN DEAD, BUT YOU GO AND PREACH THE KINGDOM OF GOD.” 

There are many spiritually dead people walking this earth today, but as Christians we much preach the WORD to this dead world! FOR ONLY HIS WORD CAN BRING LIFE TO THE DEAD! SEEK HIM AND LIVE!

Jer 10:10, BUT THE LORD IS THE TRUE GOD; HE IS THE LIVING GOD AND THE EVERLASTING KING. AT HIS WRATH THE EARTH WILL TREMBLE, AND THE NATIONS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ENDURE HIS INDIGNATION.

Isaiah 7, HE is Faithful to HIS promises!

Isa 7:1, Now it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, THAT REZIN KING OF SYRIA AND PEKAH THE SON OF REMALIAH, KING OF ISRAEL, went up to Jerusalem to make war against it, but could not prevail against it.

Israel with other nations attacked Judah in Jerusalem unsuccessfully! The LORD protected king Ahaz, even though he was an evil man who sacrificed his son (2Ki 16:1-4), but by him would come a good king Hezekiah!

Isa 7:3-6, Then the LORD said to Isaiah, “Go out now to meet Ahaz….  and say to him: ‘TAKE HEED, AND BE QUIET; DO NOT FEAR OR BE FAINTHEARTED … HAVE PLOTTED EVIL AGAINST YOU, SAYING, LET US GO UP AGAINST JUDAH AND TROUBLE IT…

It was a chaotic time, brother fighting brother (Israel & Judah), but the LORD made it clear!

Isa 7:7, thus says the Lord GOD: “IT SHALL NOT STAND, NOR SHALL IT COME TO PASS. 

Do not fear, their plans will not come to pass!

Isa 7:10-12, Moreover the LORD spoke again to Ahaz, saying, “ASK A SIGN FOR YOURSELF FROM THE LORD YOUR GOD; ASK IT EITHER IN THE DEPTH OR IN THE HEIGHT ABOVE.” But Ahaz said, “I WILL NOT ASK, NOR WILL I TEST THE LORD!”

JESUS once said, “A wicked and adulterous generations seeks after a sign..(Matt 16:4)”, but it was the LORD that said to ask for a sing! The LORD also said to test HIM regarding our finances (Mal 3:10)! But how many of us do?

Mal 3:10, Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And TRY ME NOW IN THIS,” SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it. 

Isa 7:14, THEREFORE THE LORD HIMSELF WILL GIVE YOU A SIGN: BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL CONCEIVE AND BEAR A SON, AND SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL. 

Since Ahaz refused to ask for a sign GOD HIMSELF gave a sign of the coming of HIS own SON JESUS; IMMANUEL, GOD WITH US!

Mat 1:23, “BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD, AND BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL,” which is translated, “God with us.” 

Remember, GOD is not a man that HE should lie, and HE is completely faithful to HIS promises!

2Ti 2:13, IF WE ARE FAITHLESS, HE REMAINS FAITHFUL; HE CANNOT DENY HIMSELF. 

Deu 7:9, “THEREFORE KNOW THAT THE LORD YOUR GOD, HE IS GOD, THE FAITHFUL GOD WHO KEEPS COVENANT AND MERCY FOR A THOUSAND GENERATIONS WITH THOSE WHO LOVE HIM AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS;

Proverbs 31, Blessed is a man who has a virtuous wife!

Pro 31:1, The words of King Lemuel, the utterance which his mother taught him:

Like Agur, the author of Pro 30, King Lemuel is unknown; he was never mentioned in scripture nor was a king in Israel, but his wise mother taught him well!

Pro 31:2-3, What, my son? And what, son of my womb? And what, son of my vows? DO NOT GIVE YOUR STRENGTH TO WOMEN, NOR YOUR WAYS TO THAT WHICH DESTROYS KINGS.

A loving mother describes her son as, her son, born of her own womb, whom she has vowed to protect, love and teach!  She warns her son that excessive interest in women would destroy him! Like Solomon, 1Kings 11:1-10

1Ki 11:3, And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines; and his wives turned away his heart.

Pro 31:4-5, It is not for kings, O Lemuel, IT IS NOT FOR KINGS TO DRINK WINE, Nor for princes intoxicating drink; LEST THEY DRINK AND FORGET THE LAW, AND PERVERT THE JUSTICE OF ALL THE AFFLICTED.

She warns her son to stay away from any intoxicating drink; for it perverts the way of kings and leaders! We must always be in full control of ourselves!

Eph 5:18, NLT, Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT, 

Pro 31:10-11, Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is more precious than rubies. Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life.

Thank you, LORD, for I found such a woman who has greatly enriched my life!

Pro 18:22, THE MAN WHO FINDS A WIFE FINDS A TREASURE, AND HE RECEIVES FAVOR FROM THE LORD. 

Pro 31:12, 14, She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life…. She is like a merchant’s ship, bringing her food from afar.

She takes care of her husband, her children and her home! With wisdom she manages money and brings in what is necessary!

Pro 31:25-26, She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future. When she speaks, her words are wise, and she gives instructions with kindness.

This perfectly describes my wife; for she is strong and wise. She always telling others about the promises of GOD with love and kindness! THANK YOU, LORD, FOR HER!

Pro 31:28, HER CHILDREN STAND AND BLESS HER. HER HUSBAND PRAISES HER: 

YES, SHE IS LOVED BY HER CHILDREN AND HUSBAND! WE LOVE YOU!

Psalm 106, Faith without seeing!

Psa 106:2, Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? Who can declare ALL HIS PRAISE? 

The simple answer is no one! It is impossible to declare all HIS praises; for we see only the edges of HIS glory ( Job 26:14 )

Psa 139:6, Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is high, I cannot attain it. 

Psa 106:7, Our fathers in Egypt did not understand Your wonders; They did not remember the multitude of Your mercies, BUT REBELLED BY THE SEA—THE RED SEA. 

All of Israel saw the plagues that hit Egypt and how GOD protected them! A total of ten plagues, YET rebelled against the LORD!

Ex 14:11, Then they said to Moses, … HAVE YOU TAKEN US AWAY TO DIE IN THE WILDERNESS?…

Psa 106:8-9, NEVERTHELESS HE SAVED THEM FOR HIS NAME’S SAKE, That He might make His mighty power known. HE REBUKED THE RED SEA ALSO, AND IT DRIED UP; SO HE LED THEM THROUGH THE DEPTHS, AS THROUGH THE WILDERNESS.

YET GOD saved them even in their rebellion and showed them HIS great power and mercy!

Psa 106:12, THEN THEY BELIEVED HIS WORDS; They sang His praise.

Seeing is believing, but faith is believing without seeing! Like Thomas, Israel had to see before they could believe!

Joh 20:29, Jesus said to him, “Thomas, BECAUSE YOU HAVE SEEN ME, YOU HAVE BELIEVED. BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SEEN AND YET HAVE BELIEVED.”

Psa 106:13-14, THEY SOON FORGOT HIS WORKS; They did not wait for His counsel, But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, And TESTED GOD IN THE DESERT.

So many people praise GOD when they see HIS miracles, HIS provisions, HIS work! YET, at the sign of any trial THEY FORGET WHAT HE HAS DONE IN THEIR LIVES! WE ARE FICKLED PEOPLE WHO CHANGE DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION!

2Ti 2:13, If we are faithless, HE REMAINS FAITHFUL; He cannot deny Himself. 

Do you believe only when you see, Thomas? Remember while we are faithless, HE remains faithful!

1Th 5:24, HE WHO CALLS YOU IS FAITHFUL, WHO ALSO WILL DO IT.

Psalm 104, HE provides all!

Psa 104:10-11, HE SENDS THE SPRINGS INTO THE VALLEYS; They flow among the hills. They give drink to every beast of the field; The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

The LORD provides for all HIS creation

Psa 104:13-15, … THE EARTH IS SATISFIED WITH THE FRUIT OF YOUR WORKS. He causes the grass to grow FOR THE CATTLE, And vegetation for the service of man, THAT HE MAY BRING FORTH FOOD FROM THE EARTH, And wine that makes glad the heart of man, Oil to make his face shine, AND BREAD WHICH STRENGTHENS MAN’S HEART. 

The earth, HIS creation, gives us all we need! Bread, water, power, materials to build; the earth, by HIS design, gives us what we need!

Psa 145:15, The eyes of all look expectantly to You, And You give them their food in due season.

Psa 104:19, HE appointed the MOON for seasons; The SUN knows its going down. 

Psa 8:3-4, When I consider Your heavens, THE WORK OF YOUR FINGERS, THE MOON AND THE STARS, WHICH YOU HAVE ORDAINED, WHAT IS MAN THAT YOU ARE MINDFUL OF HIM, And the son of man that You visit him?

It’s not what is man, but who HE is! HE IS OUR LOVING FATHER WHO PROVIDES FOR HIS CHILDREN! HE CREATED EVERYTHING AROUND TO SUPPORT LIFE

Psa 104:23, MAN GOES OUT TO HIS WORK AND TO HIS LABOR UNTIL THE EVENING. 

HE gives man wisdom and materials to create vehicles, homes, hospitals, tools etc.

Psa 104:24, O LORD, HOW MANIFOLD ARE YOUR WORKS! IN WISDOM YOU HAVE MADE THEM ALL. THE EARTH IS FULL OF YOUR POSSESSIONS—

Everything we have or own comes from the FATHER! HE SUPPLIES EVERYTHING!

Php 4:19, AND MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEED ACCORDING TO HIS RICHES IN GLORY BY CHRIST JESUS. 

HE created all these things for HIS creation so that we may look up and realize WE ARE NOT ALONE! NOTHING IS BY ACCIDENT AND EVERYTHING HAS A PURPOSE! OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE THAT HIS DESIRE IS FOR YOU!

1Ti 2:4-5, WHO DESIRES ALL MEN TO BE SAVED AND TO COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH. FOR THERE IS ONE GOD AND ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MEN, THE MAN CHRIST JESUS,

Psalm 70, waiting on the LORD!

Psa 70:1, …To Bring to Remembrance. MAKE HASTE, O God, to deliver me! MAKE HASTE to help me, O LORD! 

G. Campbell Morgan believed that these types of prayers were flawed in the understanding of GOD! To think that GOD is not paying attention is just wrong! YET, he goes on to say that these imperfect prayers are exactly what GOD expects to hear from imperfect men!

Isa 40:28, HAVE YOU NOT KNOWN? HAVE YOU NOT HEARD? THE EVERLASTING GOD, THE LORD, THE CREATOR OF THE ENDS OF THE EARTH, NEITHER FAINTS NOR IS WEARY. HIS UNDERSTANDING IS UNSEARCHABLE.

GOD doesn’t sleep HE is always working!

Psa 121:3-4, He will not allow your foot to be moved; HE WHO KEEPS YOU WILL NOT SLUMBER. BEHOLD, HE WHO KEEPS ISRAEL SHALL NEITHER SLUMBER NOR SLEEP.

Psa 70:4, LET ALL THOSE WHO SEEK YOU REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN YOU; AND LET THOSE WHO LOVE YOUR SALVATION SAY CONTINUALLY, “LET GOD BE MAGNIFIED!” 

Those who seek HIM shall rejoice in HIM; for there’s a great reward waiting for all who put their trust in HIM! WE HAVEN’T SEEN ANYTHING YET!

1Co 2:9, But as it is written: “EYE HAS NOT SEEN, NOR EAR HEARD, NOR HAVE ENTERED INTO THE HEART OF MAN THE THINGS WHICH GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.” 

Psa 70:5, But I am poor and needy; MAKE HASTE to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD, DO NOT DELAY. 

David describes himself as a poor afflicted beggar saying “PLEASE HELP ME LORD”!

Psa 13:1, …How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? 

GOD IS NOT IN A HURRY, YET NEVER LATE! HE UNDERSTANDS THE SITUATION BETTER THAN WE DO! TRUST IN THE LORD!

Psa 147:5, Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; HIS UNDERSTANDING IS INFINITE. 

Psa 62:5, MY SOUL, WAIT SILENTLY FOR GOD ALONE, FOR MY EXPECTATION IS FROM HIM.

Psalm 65, white as wool!

Psa 65:1-2, …A Song. Praise is awaiting You, O God, in Zion; And to You the vow shall be performed. O YOU WHO HEAR PRAYER, TO YOU ALL FLESH WILL COME.

GOD hears the prayers of all flesh, not only the Jewish nation! THE DAY IS COMING WHEN ALL PEOPLE SHALL COME TO HIS PRESENCE DURING THE MILLENNIAL REIGN OF CHRIST! SOME WILL COME IN FEAR GRASPING THE SLEEVE OF A JEWISH MAN TO BRING HIM IN!

Zec 8:22-23, YES, MANY PEOPLES AND STRONG NATIONS SHALL COME TO SEEK THE LORD OF HOSTS IN JERUSALEM, AND TO PRAY BEFORE THE LORD.’ “Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘IN THOSE DAYS TEN MEN FROM EVERY LANGUAGE OF THE NATIONS SHALL GRASP THE SLEEVE OF A JEWISH MAN, SAYING, “LET US GO WITH YOU, FOR WE HAVE HEARD THAT GOD IS WITH YOU.” ‘ “

Psa 65:3, INIQUITIES PREVAIL AGAINST ME; AS FOR OUR TRANSGRESSIONS, YOU WILL PROVIDE ATONEMENT FOR THEM. 

Sin and temptation are always present in our lives for we all fall short of the glory of GOD! YET, HE WITH HIS BLOOD HAS WASHED US AND CLEANSED US BEING MADE WHITE AS SNOW!

Isa 1:18, “Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the LORD, “Though your sins are like scarlet, THEY SHALL BE AS WHITE AS SNOW; Though they are red like crimson, THEY SHALL BE AS WOOL. 

Sin for us maybe easily hidden from men, but in the presence of the LORD WE WEAR OF FILTHINESS AS GARMENTS FOR ALL TO SEE!

Zec 3:4-5, Then He answered and spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, “TAKE AWAY THE FILTHY GARMENTS FROM HIM.” And to him He said, “SEE, I HAVE REMOVED YOUR INIQUITY FROM YOU, AND I WILL CLOTHE YOU WITH RICH ROBES.” AND I SAID, “LET THEM PUT A CLEAN TURBAN ON HIS HEAD.” SO THEY PUT A CLEAN TURBAN ON HIS HEAD, AND THEY PUT THE CLOTHES ON HIM. AND THE ANGEL OF THE LORD STOOD BY.

Psa 65:4, Blessed is the man You choose, And cause to approach You, That he may dwell in Your courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of Your house, Of Your holy temple.

Eph 1:4, JUST AS HE CHOSE US IN HIM BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 

SEEK HIS GOODNESS, SEEK HIM FOR HE PAID A GREAT PRICE FOR YOU!

Psalm 31, HE is faithful!

Psa 31:1, …In You, O LORD, I PUT MY TRUST; LET ME NEVER BE ASHAMED; Deliver me in Your righteousness. 

Because of your faith many people will mock you in times of trouble; ISN’T HE A CHRISTIAN, WHERE IS THE GOD WHO HE TRUSTED IN? He believes in GOD, yet he can’t find work, he can’t support his own family! Even JESUS on the cross was mocked!

Mat 27:43, HE TRUSTED IN GOD; LET HIM DELIVER HIM NOW if He will have Him; FOR HE SAID, ‘I AM THE SON OF GOD.’ ” 

Psa 31:2-3, Bow down Your ear to me, DELIVER ME SPEEDILY; Be my rock of refuge, A fortress of defense to SAVE ME. For You are my rock and my fortress; THEREFORE, FOR YOUR NAME’S SAKE, Lead me and guide me.

LORD, as they mock me they also mock YOU; FOR THE HONOR OF YOUR NAME save me!

When I was laid off from work, I remember my family telling me, “you still don’t have a job”!  I told them “IN HIS TIME THE LORD WILL PROVIDE”! They turned away and laughed, YET MY FAITHFUL AND AWESOME GOD DID OPEN DOORS FOR ME AND MY FAMILY!  ALL GLORY TO HIM FOR HE IS FAITHFUL!

Deu 7:9, “Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, THE FAITHFUL GOD WHO KEEPS COVENANT AND MERCY FOR A THOUSAND GENERATIONS WITH THOSE WHO LOVE HIM AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS; 

Do you know that HE honors HIS promises, and YOUR FAITH IN HIM?

Heb 11:6, But without FAITH it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

Psa 31:23-24, Oh, LOVE THE LORD, ALL YOU HIS SAINTS! FOR THE LORD PRESERVES THE FAITHFUL, And fully repays the proud person. BE OF GOOD COURAGE, AND HE SHALL STRENGTHEN YOUR HEART, ALL YOU WHO HOPE IN THE LORD.

IN TIMES OF TROUBLE AND IN TIMES OF JOY STAND ON THE SOLID GROUND OF HIS WORD! FOR HE IS NOT A MAN THAT HE SHOULD LIE! SEEK AND HAVE FAITH IN HIM FOR HE IS FAITHFUL TO THOSE THAT LOVE HIM!

Psalm 15, Dwelling in HIS presence!

Psa 15:1, … LORD, WHO MAY ABIDE IN YOUR TABERNACLE? WHO MAY DWELL IN YOUR HOLY HILL? 

David longed for HIS presence, not just to visit BUT TO DWELL IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD! WHO MAY ABIDE IN YOUR PRESENCE???

Psa 15:2-3, He who WALKS UPRIGHTLY, And WORKS RIGHTEOUSNESS, And SPEAKS THE TRUTH IN HIS HEART; He who does not backbite with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor does he take up a reproach against his friend;

He who does the will of GOD may dwell in HIS presence! Not just hearers of the word but doers of it!  ALL WHO WALK IN HIS WAYS, DOES WHAT HE SAYS, AND SPEAKS THE TRUTH MAY DWELL IN HIS HOLY PRESENCE!

1Jn 1:6, If we say that we have fellowship with Him, AND WALK IN DARKNESS, WE LIE AND DO NOT PRACTICE THE TRUTH. 

Externally one may be perceived to be a follower of CHRIST JESUS! But, if your gossiping, hurting your neighbors or speaking evil of your friends YOUR ONLY DECEIVING YOURSELF FOR HE SEES EVERYTHING CLEARLY! HE KNOWS THE REAL YOU AND ME!

Psa 15:4-5, In whose eyes a VILE PERSON IS DESPISED, BUT HE HONORS THOSE WHO FEAR THE LORD; He who swears to his own hurt and does not change; He who does not put out his money at usury, Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. HE WHO DOES THESE THINGS SHALL NEVER BE MOVED.

HE WHO DOES THIS STANDS ON FIRM GROUND, FOR HE IS STANDING ON THE ROCK WHICH IS CHRIST JESUS!

Deu 32:3-4, For I proclaim the name of the LORD: Ascribe greatness to our God. HE IS THE ROCK, HIS WORK IS PERFECT; For all His ways are justice, A God of truth and without injustice; Righteous and upright is He.

ONE DAY WE SHALL LIVE IN HIS PRESENCE IF YOU ABIDE IN HIM AND EXCEPT HIS FREE GIFT! YOU CAN’T EARN IT, YOU DON’T MERIT IT, IT’S A FREE GIFT THAT COST HIM EVERYTHING! HE IS WORTHY AND HIS WAYS ARE PERFECT! SEEK HIM DAILY FOR HIS RETURN IS NEAR!

Joh 14:3, AND IF I GO AND PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU, I WILL COME AGAIN AND RECEIVE YOU TO MYSELF; THAT WHERE I AM, THERE YOU MAY BE ALSO.

Esther 10, HIS Providence!

Est 10:3, FOR MORDECAI THE JEW WAS SECOND TO KING AHASUERUS, and was great among the Jews and well received by the multitude of his brethren, SEEKING THE GOOD OF HIS PEOPLE AND SPEAKING PEACE TO ALL HIS COUNTRYMEN.

Mordecai came from nothing to be second in command of Persia. Like Joseph, who was sold as a slave to Egypt and became second in command of the land!

Psa 75:6-7, For exaltation comes neither from the east Nor from the west nor from the south. BUT GOD IS THE JUDGE: HE PUTS DOWN ONE, AND EXALTS ANOTHER.

And the story ends without the mention of GOD’s name, Yet we clearly see the work of HIS hands!

IT WASN’T MERE LUCK that Queen Vashti lost her position. IT WASN’T LUCK that Esther won a beauty contest and made Queen in Vashti’s place! IT WASN’T JUST COINCIDENCE that Mordecai heard of the plot to kill the king!

In a sleepless night GOD ARRANGED king Ahasuerus to read a book of records only to find that Mordecai wasn’t honored for saving the kings life!  

Spurgeon said “ESTHER IS A BOOK OF WONDERS WITHOUT A MIRACLE”, FOR GOD WORKS SUPERNATURALLY IN THE NATURAL!

Psa 77:14, YOU ARE THE GOD WHO DOES WONDERS; YOU HAVE DECLARED YOUR STRENGTH AMONG THE PEOPLES.

AS BELIEVERS WE SHOULD NEVER ATTRIBUTE ANYTHING TO LUCK FOR GOD IS ALWAYS WORKING ON OUR BEHALF! WE DON’T NEED TO SEE A MIRACLE HAPPEN JUST TO SAY THAT WAS FROM THE LORD; FOR HE ARRANGES EVERYTHING AROUND US! DO YOU KNOW YOUR GOD, HIS POWER HIS STRENGTH?

Dan 11:32b, … BUT THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW THEIR GOD SHALL BE STRONG, AND CARRY OUT GREAT EXPLOITS. 

Exo 33:14, And HE said, “MY PRESENCE WILL GO WITH YOU, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST.” 

Joh 21:25, AND THERE ARE ALSO MANY OTHER THINGS THAT JESUS DID, WHICH IF THEY WERE WRITTEN ONE BY ONE, I SUPPOSE THAT EVEN THE WORLD ITSELF COULD NOT CONTAIN THE BOOKS THAT WOULD BE WRITTEN. AMEN.
