Good Word for Today!

The Lord Be With You Today!

Exodus 34:10 
Then the Lord said:
"I am making a covenant with you.

Before all your people I will do wonders
never before done in any nation in all the world.

(Although God's people had broken their part
of the covenant He had made with them,
a covenant to which they had earlier agreed, but had chosen to break,
the Lord Himself was initiating a renewal
of His holy and personal connection with them.
The Lord still interacts with us today in this same, merciful way.
Even when we fail Him, even when we turn away from Him,
even when we insult Him by breaking our vows of faithfulness to Him,
He still and again comes to us and offers us
His amazing forgiveness and restoration.

The Lord Himself has chosen us
to be His witnesses to others around us,
to be a testimony to the world around us
of the presence and the power of the Lord
in the lives of us whom He has called.
He promises to do miracles and wonders that will amaze
through His mercy and provision and salvation.
And, indeed, His grace and mercy and redemption
have never before been done or seen
except through the wonder and power of this Great God Who loves us.)

The people you live among will see
how awesome is the work that I, the Lord, will do for you.
"

(Just as surely as He promised, He carried out these intentions.
He would lead them through the wilderness,
supply heaven's provisions of manna and meat,
cause them to cross the Jordan on dry ground,
break down the walls of Jericho,
drive out the enemy inhabitants of the Promised Land, and much more.
When we really stop and look at what and how
the Lord has worked in our own past and present lives today,
we cannot but marvel at His faithfulness and powerful interventions
as He shows us the great wonders He has already performed for us,
all of which serve as a reminder
that He continues to work in us and through us
and to show Himself strong on our behalf
and to those with whom we interact to draw them to Him, as well.)


May the Lord richly bless you this day!

In Christ's love,
Blessings!
