Dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Exodus 15:23, “When they came to Marah, they could not drink its water because it was bitter”. When the People of Israel were in the wilderness, they did not have good water to drink.
The people of Israel murmured to Moses saying that they did not have water to drink. Later they went to a place called Marah, where the water they drank was bitter. Moses cried out to the Lord, telling Him about what the people of Israel were murmuring about. Hearing the cry of Moses, the Lord showed him a tree and told him to cut it and put it into the water. God promised Moses that He would turn the bitterness of the water into sweetness. When Moses did as God instructed, the water turned sweet. The people were amazed at the miracle that the Lord performed.
The book of 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold all things have become new.” God can bring you out of your difficult situations. When an unrighteous person turns from all his ways, he will find favor in the sight of God and the Lord will make everything new in his life. A glass of water is sufficient to quench the thirst of the one who is thirsty. But a long stretch of parched land needs a flood to make the land moist and wet. The Lord says, in Isaiah 44:4, “I will pour floods of water upon the dry ground.” In case your life has become too dry because of your financial crisis or because of any other problem that is holding you from moving forward in life, the Lord will pour out His blessings in abundance upon you. Today, the Lord is going to perform a miracle in your life. God is going to pour out floods of water upon you and will quench the parchment of your life.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Your word says in the book of 2 Kings 3:17, “You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain, yet that valley shall be filled with water. So that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink.” I pray that You may fulfill this promise in the lives of Your children. May they prosper and be blessed. You are Jehova Jireh- the Provider. May You provide all the needs of Your children. In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
