of Salvation
Text: Psalms 42:1-11
There
are many types of miracles, but the miracle of Salvation is the
greatest. In Matthew 8:1-3, we have the story of a leper who approached
Jesus and fell down at His feet as the Saviour came down from
a mountain top. He asked Jesus to make him whole. This man had
neither money nor a helper. He was sick, lonely and hopeless.
He was not even sure that Jesus Christ would be willing to heal
him. But the day he met the God of breakthroughs, he got his breakthrough.
In
Mark 2:1-12, we meet a man who was paralyzed from the neck downward.
He was helpless, as he could not move himself. He depended on
others for everything. He had four good friends who heard that
Jesus Christ could do everything. To get to Jesus Christ they
had to take the man through the rooftop. Seeing their faith, Jesus
told the man that all his sins were forgiven. This gave the man
his breakthrough as he walked home rejoicing and glorifying God.
In
John 5:1-14, we meet the man at the pool of Bethesda. The man
had been waiting there for thirty years. The day his breakthrough
came, the man took his position among the so many disabled people
waiting to receive their miracles from the Lord Jesus. When the
God of breakthroughs came round, this man was singled out for
a breakthrough. In Mark 10:52, Bartmaeus was sitting by the roadside
sick, poor and sad. He had heard of the God of breakthrough but
he could not see, as he was blind. Nobody was willing to take
him to Jesus Christ. However he heard that Jesus was passing by
he cried out lout unto Him. The Lord heard him and gave him his
breakthrough - he regained his sight. Before you can get your
breakthrough you have to be cleansed. Naaman was cleansed and
the sin of the leper was forgiven. Bartmaeus cried out and God
had mercy on him.
If
you are not born again, you cannot receive your breakthrough.
You sins have to be forgiven or you will keep on suffering. You
need the miracle of salvation today. Get saved and your existence
on earth will become a rhythm of miracles.
Memory Verse: Psalms 42:1 - “As the hart panteth after the
water brroks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.”
