God Will Amaze You!

Today's Scripture:

Lord, I have heard the news about you; I am amazed at what you have done. Lord, do great things once again in our time; make those things happen again in our own days. Even when you are angry, remember to be kind.


Habakkuk 3:2


God has a pretty amazing reputation. Habakkuk had heard stories about how God had rescued his people from terrible trouble. Based on God's reputation, Habakkuk boldly asked God to do it again. In Habuakkuk's prayer, recorded in chapter 3 verses 2-18, he recalled some of the incredible things God had done over time.


By recounting the fantastic ways God had rescued his people in the past,Habakkuk reassured himself that God would rescue his people again. Habakkuk recalled how in the past God caused an ocean to separate so God's people could walk safely across to the other side and avoid being captured by their enemies. Habakkuk prayed that God would do something of that magnitude to rescue the people of his time.


You can read about God's reputation throughout the Bible. It is a story that continues today because God continues to do amazing things. God listens to your prayers at any time of the day or night. He inspires people to write and record music for you to listen to. He causes the sun to rise and start each new day.


God is an endless source of amazement. Be bold like Habakkuk and ask God to do for your generation what he has done in the past.


Based on his reputation, you will not be disappointed with his response. Selah people' and friends as tomorrow we celebrate Grandparent's day remember we serve the same God who blessed and amazed them. Let us be ready for him to amaze us and the generations to come.


Write down or recall a few of the fabulous ways you have been thrilled and Blessed by God. Keep the list handy as a source of encouragement.


"Peace and blessings to you grab someone hug them and tell the that God loves them."


In Christ service...Your Pastor,
