THE 9th OF DECEMBER

GOD’S MIRACLES NEVER ENDED

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the dumb sing. For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert. – Isaiah 35:5-6

When are these verses fulfilled? Isaiah 35:4 had said: “Behold, your God will come… and save you.” This is considered by many to be a double prophecy, first, when Jesus came to live as a man and die in our place, and second, in regard to Jesus’ Second Coming. The first one has already taken place and we are waiting for the second. Since the Lord came in the flesh, He healed blind eyes and deaf ears, both physical and spiritual. Jesus came to save us spiritually and also to heal our bodies and souls. There is nothing He cannot heal or restore and the more we pray and trust Him, the healthier we are.

Jesus compared the presence of the Holy Spirit with springs of living water. Also, God’s grace that we received through Jesus, can be compared to springs of water that had burst forth in the desert and developed into streams. The spiritual state of humanity could be compared with the desert in desperate need of water. People without Christ are spiritually dry and cannot be satisfied by anything else other than the Holy Spirit’s fountain.

SUGGESTED PRAYER: Thank You Jesus for being my Lord and my Salvation. There is so much comfort in Your presence and You are always there to heal, restore and deliver me. Thank You for sending the Holy Spirit to be a fountain of living water in my heart to help, comfort and teach me all Your truth that I read in Your Word and to help me remember it in times of need. I am blessed to be Your child, and to have my senses activated by Your Holy Spirit so that I can believe in who You are and who I am in You. Glory and praises to Your Holy Name Lord Jesus, forever and ever. Amen.
