Monday Thought -- October 1, 2012


Good Morning Friends,

“We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us what you did in their days, in days long ago.” (Psalm 44:1)

The story of God is as old as the history of man.  From the beginning men have been relaying to others the story of what God has done.  His works of the past are marvelous.

The dead have been raised to life again.  Remember Lazarus and Dorcas and Jesus!  God has conquered the worst enemy of man.  God has conquered death!

The sick have been healed.  Leprosy disappears.  The lame walk.  The blind see.  The deaf hear.  Miracles, all attributable to God.

Nature’s forces are harnessed.  At God’s word, the sun stood still.  At God’s word, the earth opened and swallowed wicked men.  At God’s word, the wind died and the waves calmed.  At God’s word, the earth shook.

Kings rose and kings fell, all because of God.  Kingdoms dissolved and armies were defeated, because of God.

People’s lives were changed.  Persecutors became preachers.  Prostitutes changed overnight.  Extortionists became philanthropists.

We have heard of the works of God of the past.  And now we cry with Habakkuk:  “LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, O LORD.  Renew them in our day, in our time make them known.” (Habakkuk 3:2)

We have heard of the works of God of the past.  God, let us see them again!!!  Let us see them in our own lives!

His, by Grace,

Steve
