August 5

Some of you were sick because you’d lived a bad life, your bodies feeling the effects of your sin; You couldn’t stand the sight of food, so miserable you thought you’d be better off dead. Then you called out to GOD in your desperate condition; he got you out in the nick of time. He spoke the word that healed you, that pulled you back from the brink of death. So thank GOD for his marvelous love, for his miracle mercy to the children he loves; Offer thanksgiving sacrifices, tell the world what he’s done—sing it out”! Psalm 107:17-22

Sin, sickness, sorrow, however they may come, are no match for this wonder working God of yours! Whatever it is you are walking or wading through, rest assured, He has already overcome! Whatever mess you have made, or has been made for you—He knows how to clean it up. In the missing bits and pieces of your life—He can restore. Heartaches and heartbreaks are no match for your healing God; miracle mercies are His specialty!
 
Oh, treasured one, turn to Him now. Don’t run in the opposite direction as the enemy so often beckons you to do. Turn instead to the arms of love; waiting, open, accepting. Turn to the heart of God and the fullness of His love. Here is your redemption, deliverance, and the—beyond what you could ask or imagine—supernatural substance—of all you need.

Prayer:
 
Today, Lord, it seems like the ask is too big—to many things need healing—to much in need of repair. Still Lord, I turn my heart and my life to You—for healing, for hope, and for help. The kind of help that only You can do.
 
For myself Lord I pray, and all of those who are on my heart today. Speak Your words of life over us all. Release Your miracle mercies and Your great love.
 
In the Holy Name of our Messiah, Jesus, I pray.
