"Then God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided."
â€â€Genesis‬ â€8‬:â€1‬ â€NKJV‬‬
God remembering Noah stood out to me. Noah may have felt forgotten during that long stretch of time on the ark. But, God did not forget him. In our times of difficulty, trials and struggles, He does not abandon us but He is with us.
"let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead-by him this man stands before you healthy!"
â€â€Acts‬ â€4‬:â€10‬ â€LEB‬‬
What incredible awe and power displayed here. Just by a name. The name of Yahweh's Anointed One; who was God Himself. May I start to live this way, doing miracles in His Name. Glorifying the Father. Truly nothing is impossible when we ask for it in Jesus' name and it fits according to God's will. Praying for more harvesters to be filled with this type of boldness. Fill us all with your Spirit, Lord. May we not depend on anything other than the Name of Jesus, where there is salvation in no one else!
In Acts 4, a notable miracle has taken place in the life of a 40 year old man. It was undeniable and many people witnessed the miracle. Peter and John are taken before the Sanhedrin Court and in verse 13, the Sanhedrin says of Peter and John that they are uneducated and untrained men, but they realized that they had been with Jesus. And because of their being with Jesus, we see the boldness of Peter and John. Peter and John has not only been with Jesus, but they had seen the resurrected Christ. And because of seeing the resurrected Christ, they now have a boldness that they did not have before. Peter testifies that they are simply telling what they have seen and heard. Isn't that the most powerful testimony? To tell what you have seen and heard. That is what a witness does, tell what they have seen and heard. Maybe people don't witness because they have not seen or heard anything. Whatever you have seen, heard, and Jesus has done in your life; let's proclaim it! Amen!
Genesis 8:22 serves as a reminder of God's faithfulness, His sovereign control over the Earth, and His commitment to sustaining the cycles of nature. It reassures us that, despite the changes and challenges we may face, there is an underlying order and reliability in God's creation. Praise!
Acts 4:11 He's is the only way!
He is the plumb line of our lives. Jesus is the measure-and the means-by which we align our lives to Him, the glorious cornerstone.
