GHG SHORT DEVOTIONALS - 53 (BELIEVE IN GOD. YOU WILL SEE WONDERS)

“Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him.” – John 11:45

Many who saw what Jesus did, believed in Him.

“You have seen God doing greater things in your life now and then. But then what is the reason that your faith is wavering as you now face certain tough situations in your life? 

Have you not seen God doing mighty things for you? Have you not seen Him answering your prayers whenever you had shed tears in His presence? Have you not felt His presence in your life when you went through the darkness of death? Don’t you know that He is able to do miracles in your life even at this moment? Then where is your faith and why are you struggling in your heart and mind?”, asks Holy Spirit to someone out there today. 

1.     Believe in God. He will answer your prayers.

“Now Isaac pleaded with the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and the Lord granted his plea, and Rebekah his wife conceived.” – Genesis 25:21

Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah as his wife. When Jacob and Esau was born, Isaac was sixty years old. For nearly 20 years Rebekah was barren. But Isaac believed in God who did wonders in his father’s life. He prayed to God for his wife and the Lord granted his plea.

The Lord Almighty who had led your family thus far will lead you in the coming days too. Your prayers will get answered says Holy Spirit to you.

2.    Believe in God. Your life situations will change. 

“Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your son lives.” So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.” – John 4:50

A nobleman came to Jesus as his son was sick and about to die. He pleaded God to come and heal his son. But Jesus told him a word that his son lives. He believes what God told him and went on his way. His son got healed at the same moment.

As you put your trust in God, your life situations will change.

3.     Remember that there is nothing too hard for the Lord.

“‘Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for You.” – Jeremiah 32:17

The Lord who has carried you thus far will carry you, sustain you and protect you in the days to come. He will never forsake you.

GHG SHORT DEVOTIONALS - 52 ( YOU WILL NO LONGER REMEMBER YOUR ANGUISH)

“A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow because her hour has come; but as soon as she has given birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world.” – John 16:21

“Days are coming in which you will no longer remember the anguish that you are going through in your life today. God will fill you with His joy”, says Holy Spirit to you today.

o  1. God will turn His face towards you. Your days of mourning will come to an end.

“Your sun shall no longer go down, Nor shall your moon withdraw itself; For the Lord will be your everlasting light, And the days of your mourning shall be ended.” – Isaiah 60:20

In Luke 7:36-50, we read about a sinful woman. She was a sinner. She came to Jesus and washed his feet with her tears. She wept and wept. Her heart might be broken and she might have felt miserable about her own life. So she cried. Verse 44 says that Jesus turned to the woman.  Her tears made Jesus to turn towards her. And then her sins were forgiven by Jesus and she went in peace.

“ The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace - Numbers 6:26

You had shed lot of tears in the presence of God. Today Holy Spirit says to you that God will turn His face towards you and fill you with His peace. 

2. Your heart will rejoice and no one can take your joy away from you.

“Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you." - John 16:22

The joy and peace that God is promising you today will make you forget all the worries and sorrows of your past. God will surely take away your reproach. You shall no longer weep again for God will be your comfort says Holy Spirit to you.

To someone out there Holy Spirit says, “You have told God that He is enough for you whatever be your life’s circumstances. Such is your love towards God. Though you are weeping about your situations, you are holding onto God and His promises.” Today Holy Spirit wants me to tell you that God’s heart is rejoicing over you and your hope and expectations will not be cut off, for surely there is a future for you.

“…Blessed are you who weep now, For you shall laugh.” – Luke 6:21
