Day 8
God is still the God of Miracles
When we read the bible, we read of the great stories where God intervened and amazing miracles happened in the lives of people. Didn't matter if they served Him or not strange things happened. One is the talking donkey and the prophet Balaam. God caused the donkey Balaam was ridding to see an angel blocking the path, and when Balaam became mad because the donkey stopped moving, the donkey then starting talking. This story has always amazed me. One the donkey who could see in the spirit and talk and a prophet who didn't serve God, was concerned and only wanted to say what God wanted him to say. You can read the full story in Numbers 22.
Another miracle story is of course the crossing of the Red Sea and the Israelites crossing on dry ground. This story is in Exodus 14.
There are the two stories about the multitudes being fed when Jesus walked the earth. Feeding thousands of people from a few and fish and loaves of bread, with some left over. Even in the book of Acts there are several amazing stories of miracles happening to people.
But I would like to share of one more resent. A young man in a motorcycle accident. When a car pulled out in front of him as he was traveling down the freeway, about 70 miles an hour. He walked away from the crunched up bike! Yes he has road rash on his upper body and a few other bruises, but as he was going through the accident, he said he could feel arms going around him, protecting him!
God is still the God of miracles. This is an amazing story of how God protects us in the midst of something that could have other wise ended very tragically.
I am so thankful, that God is still the God of miracles!
Isaiah 40: 25....To whom will you liken Me, that I should be his equal? says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high and see who has created these stars. The One who leads forth their host by number, He calls them all by name; because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power, not one of the is missing.. Also Isaiah 46: 9.& 11.....For I am God, and there is no one like Me.....I will accomplish all My good pleasure.
He is an amazing God, and watches over us all.
Thank You Heavenly Father, for Your love and guidance. Protecting us in times of trouble and loving us unconditionally. We need You and long for the day we can meet You face to face. But until that day we thank You for the signs wonders and miracles we experience each day. amen.
