But
those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings
like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
(Isaiah 40:31)
Have you been hoping? Have you been waiting? Take heart. Your prayers are going
to be answered. Will you believe that the Lord can do an extraordinary miracle
for you?
What's an extraordinary miracle? Let me quote a few from the Word of God to
bolster your faith.
The men of the city said to Elisha, "Look, our Lord, this town is well
situated, as you can see, but the water is bad and the land is
unproductive." "Bring me a new bowl," he said, "and put
salt in it." So they brought it to him. Then he went out to the spring and
threw the salt into it, saying, "This is what the LORD says: 'I have
healed this water. Never again will it cause death or make the land
unproductive. And the water has remained wholesome to this day, according to
the word Elisha had spoken. (2 Kings 2:19-22)
Elisha returned to Gilgal and there was a famine in that region. While the
company of the prophets was meeting with him, he said to his servant, "Put
on the large pot and cook some stew for these men." One of them went out
into the fields to gather herbs and found a wild vine. He gathered some of its
gourds and filled the fold of his cloak. When he returned, he cut them up into
the pot of stew, though no one knew what they were. The stew was poured out for
the men, but as they began to eat it, they cried out, "O man of God, there
is death in the pot!" And they could not eat it. Elisha said, "Get
some flour." He put it into the pot and said, "Serve it to the people
to eat." And there was nothing harmful in the pot. (2 Kings 4:38-41)
The company of the prophets said to Elisha, "Look, the place where we meet
with you is too small for us. Let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get
a pole; and let us build a place there for us to live." And he said,
"Go." Then one of them said, "Won't you please come with your
servants?" "I will," Elisha replied. And he went with them. They
went to the Jordan and began to cut down trees. As one of them was cutting down
a tree, the iron ax head fell into the water. "Oh, my Lord," he cried
out, "it was borrowed!" The man of God asked, "Where did it
fall?" When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it
there, and made the iron float. "Lift it out," he said. Then the man
reached out his hand and took it. (2 Kings 6:1-7)
In the above 3 miracles, it was not the power of the salt or the flour or the
stick that brought about the miracle. Instead it was the power of the Word of
God that was spoken by Elisha. Will you believe this day that the Lord will do
an extraordinary miracle for you for the thing that you have been hoping and
praying for? The Lord Jesus Christ will speak the Word for your deliverance.
It's my prayer for you that you may experience that miracle and glorify God.
