We Have Seen Remarkable Things Today!


Daniel 9; Daniel 10; Psalm 123; Luke 5


Scripture

Luke 5:26 “Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God. They were filled with awe and said, "We have seen remarkable things today."

Observation

While Jesus was speaking in a home a man was suddenly dropped down through the roof by some of the man’s friends. This man was crippled and these men wanted Jesus to heal him. Jesus not only healed him but also told him that his sins were forgiven. So this God Event amazed the folks. It could only be explained as a “God Thing”. I want to see “God Things” in our church’s life. Things that happen that can only be explained as a “God Thing”. I want to be able to say; “We have seen remarkable things today.”

Application

The four men that carried their crippled friend had incredible faith! It was their faith that set this miracle into action! I need to think today about who needs to be brought to Jesus.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank you for the story of these men bringing their friend to Jesus. Thank you for your Word that is new and fresh every morning. I want to see remarkable things happen in my life and in the life of our church that only can be explained as “God Things”. Do some things this weekend where only you can get the credit. I pray for Jon Reed that you use him to touch lives this weekend.
