We all have things that seem insurmountable. Things that are hard and seem as if nothing good could ever come of them. Well, today, let’s just let our faith out of the box we’ve confined it to and live like we believe for those things to become real. It’s called a miracle and they still happen
Yeah, so some days just seem all so old and familiar, and just when you think you’ve turned a slight corner it appears it went wrong and not right. Then what? Then where do we turn when the turn at the corner didn’t turn at all in the right direction? Isaiah 43: 19
“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” Don’t you love it; this wonderful promise from the Lord your Holy One, Israel’s Creator and King ~ Verse 15?
“I am the Lord who opened a way through the waters, making a dry path through the sea….but forget all that ~ it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See I have already begun, do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.”
An awesome promise from the Lord our God for us right now in this moment, this day, this month, this year. I especially like the part about the “New Thing.” Don’t you? Whatever God has done in the past that rocked your world, and turned it upside down with wonder, miracles and healing, is nothing compared to what He’s about to do, can do, and will do, if we just ask with a believing heart. So beautiful soul ~ needing something new today? I’m sure we could all use a heap of “new” and wonderful and couldn’t we handle the awesomeness of watching our Red Sea part, making a way for us to cross over into God’s promises fulfilled?
Well ~ God is faithful! As He led the Israelites through the wilderness He leads us! He’s our life source, our life preserver, our provider, our sustainer, our healer, our counselor, our Savior, and our Lord. Let’s not miss the new thing He’s about to open up to us by living in past glories, victories, or even those devastating past failures, where it’s so easy to wallow and get off course. There is more than all of that ~ and our sovereign God holds it for us. Open your mind and your heart to the “New” that He has in His divine, Mastermind! Be obedient! Be trusting! Be faithful and watch and pray!
The boy only had five loaves and two fish but In our Lord’s hands, it was enough to feed the multitudes. He blessed it and broke it and then performed His awesome miracle to feed 5000 people. So, hey you there, wherever you are, whatever you have today is enough! In the Lord’s hands, you might be amazed at what He can do with it.
Don’t be surprised if He blesses it and breaks it first ‘cuz He uses broken things to multiply His Kingdom! When you feel you have nothing but brokenness to offer, that’s when you have everything to give.
Beautiful soul, the more broken you are, the more useful you are in His kingdom work. ~k
“Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then He gave them to His disciples to set before the people. He also divided the two fish among them all.”
Mark 6: 41
Beyond impossible circumstances today? It’s ok! God looks after those! He holds them in nail imprinted hands so that you can free yours from the weight of it all. There’s no need to fret because ~ the most awesome thing? He does the impossible! He performs the miracles out of the emptiness and impossibility of it all. Take it to Him! Give it to Him and tread lightly in His footsteps as He guides your way! That issue isn’t yours, It’s His and He has a plan for it, even when it all appears like crumpled hope and a torn page out of your story. He’s guided many through the consequences of bad choices, the bitterness of brokenness, and through the dimmed lights of lost causes. He uses those very things to propel His plan and fulfill His goal to bring you to His preferred place, customized just for you. Don’t you know it? That just what He does!! He did it for our Biblical patriarchs and heroes and beautiful soul, all is well ~ He’s still the same today and He’ll do it for you ~ just for you!!
Trust Him and don’t try to figure it out ‘cuz even in our greatest thoughts of Him, He is greater still!
