We welcome you to the Daily Inspirations Program by Abraham Sekhar.
Today we read Genesis chapters 20 and 21 from the Old Testament and Matthew chapter 8:1-17 from the New Testament.
Genesis chapter 20 is the record of Abraham facing Abimelech and his deliverance. In chapter 21, God blessed Abraham and Sarah with a son, the promised son, Isaac. God blessed them despite their old age. God fulfills his promises through miracles.
In Matthew 8:1-17, three wonderful healings take place. From them, one is about the centurion asking Jesus to heal his servant. The centurion had such great faith in God that he believed that only the Lord’s word was enough to heal his servant. Jesus was ready to visit his servant and heal him, but the centurion felt that he wasn’t worthy for the Lord Jesus to come under his roof so the centurion told Him that He only speak a word and his servant would be healed.
Faith brings miracles. We must believe and have strong unshakeable faith in God just like Abraham and Sarah believed in God for the promised child, Isaac, and like the centurion’s faith in Jesus for the healing of his servant. Hold on to the promises given to you by God. God never fails. He will fulfill all His promises.
Father, we thank You and praise You. We thank You for this inspirational word. We pray that may all put their faith in You. You are the same yesterday, today, and forever. Father, we believe that You can bless us now just the way You blessed Your children then.
We thank You for blessing us.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
