God of Wonders

-



Dear brothers and sisters,


Today, let us reflect on the awe-inspiring nature of our God, the God of Wonders, as revealed in the Bible. In Psalm 77:14 (NIV), it says, "You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples."


Our God, the creator of the universe, is the God of wonders. He crafted the galaxies, painted the skies, and sculpted the mountains. Every sunrise, every rainbow, every starry night is a testament to His artistic brilliance (Genesis 1:1, Psalm 19:1).


In Exodus, we witness the wonders of God as He parted the Red Sea (Exodus 14:21-22), fed His people with manna from heaven (Exodus 16:4), and guided them with a pillar of fire by night (Exodus 13:21). These miracles remind us that God's power knows no bounds.


In the New Testament, Jesus, the Son of God, performed miracles that left people astounded. He healed the sick (Matthew 4:23), raised the dead (John 11:43-44), and calmed storms with just a word (Mark 4:39). Jesus' life itself was a wonder, born of a virgin (Matthew 1:23), fulfilling prophecies (Matthew 26:54), and ultimately conquering death through His resurrection (Matthew 28:6).


But God's wonders aren't confined to the past. He continues to work wonders in our lives today. Miracles of healing (James 5:14-15), restoration (Joel 2:25), and transformation (2 Corinthians 5:17) happen when we place our trust in Him.


Let us remember that the God of Wonders is not distant or indifferent. He invites us to draw near (James 4:8), to seek His face (Psalm 27:8), and to experience His wonders firsthand.


As we go forth from this place, may we carry with us a deep sense of awe for our God, the God of Wonders. Let our lives be a testament to His miraculous power (Acts 1:8), and may we continually seek His presence (Jeremiah 29:13), knowing that with Him, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26).

Scripture: Luke 10:25-37 Introduction: Ladies and gentlemen, brothers and sisters, today we gather to delve into one of the most profound and heart-touching parables ever told by our Lord Jesus Christ, the Parable of the Good Samaritan. This timeless story holds within it a message of compassion, selflessness, and the boundless love that our Savior calls us to embrace. As we reflect upon this parable, let us open our hearts to its life-changing lessons and be inspired to be Good Samaritans in our own lives. I. Setting the Stage Let us begin by setting the stage for this parable. In the Gospel of Luke, a lawyer stands up to test Jesus, asking, " Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? " Jesus, in His infinite wisdom, replies with another question: " What is written in the Law? How do you read it?" The lawyer answers with the greatest commandment, to love the Lord with all your heart and to love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus acknowledges this answer, but ...

       Dear brothers and sisters, In the book of Psalms, Chapter 86, Verse 5, We find these comforting words: " For you, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those who call upon you" These words remind us of a fundamental truth about our gracious and loving God-He is always ready to forgive sinners, no matter the weight of our transgression, no matter how far we have strayed from His path, God 's forgiveness is a gift that is ever -present and freely given. In the book of Isaiah, Chapter 1, Verse 18, the Lord invites us to reason together, saying, "Come now, let us settle the matter. Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool." What a marvelous promise ! God's forgiveness has the power to cleanse us completely, to wash away the stains of our sins, and to make us pure and new. In the parable of the prodigal son, Jesus teaches us about the Father'...

After Death-What Happens When we Die? LUKE 16:19

    After Death   LUKE 16:19 At this moment you are alive, you breathe, you move about or work .   You may be living in comfort or existing in misery. The sun rises and sets; somewhere a child is being born; but also somewhere, someone is always dying. All of life is only a temporary arrangement . But, Where will you go after death?     Whether you are religious, or simply do not believe in any religion— You still need to settle this most important question, because after a brief earth-life, man goes to his eternal destiny.     (Ecclesiastes 12:5)   But Where?   The cemetery where you will be buried cannot entomb your soul. Though your body was burned at the cremation pyre, it could not consume your soul. If you perished in the depth of the sea, your soul would not drown.   Your soul will never die!   The God of heaven and earth has said,      “All souls are Mine...
