God speaks today Friday | December 22, 2023

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. (Psalm 119:105)
We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: (2 Peter 1:19)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

Believe even in the midst of complexity

God's involvement in our lives is not always clear, and sometimes the principles and promises of the Word seem to contradict what we are experiencing. We must hold fast to the spiritual principles of the Word, even in complex and difficult situations, and confidently declare "It is written!" in the face of adversity. God's Word will be a light in our lives and lead us to safety. Read more...

We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: (2 Peter 1:19)
For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness. (Psalm 18:28)

Gladys Cardona: Thank you, thank you, the Word of God always arrives on time. It is beautiful to know that God uses his servants to bring us this Word of faith and hope. God bless you!!!
Amen, Sister Gladys. How beautiful it is to know that God always speaks to us through his Word at the right moments. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, "When life or circumstances seem to contradict what you think you know about God, lean on what the Word says and confidently declare: 'It is written!'" (Dr. Roberto Miranda , Believe even in the midst of complexity). The Word of God is like a lamp that guides us in the midst of darkness, illuminating our path and giving us hope. May God continue to bless you and strengthen you in your faith. God bless you! (Psalms 119:105; 2 Peter 1:19)
Francisco Diaz S.: Perseverance gives us patience, and with patience we achieve our goal otherwise we lose FAITH. The impatient gets tired and succumbs.
That's right, brother Francisco. Perseverance and patience go hand in hand in our walk of faith. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, "Sometimes, we will have to wait a long time before seeing the answer to our prayers. In that case, faith will manifest itself through our patience and perseverance in prayer" (Dr. Roberto Miranda, Believe even in the midst of complexity). It is in those moments of waiting and difficulty that our faith is put to the test, but if we persevere and trust in God, we will not tire or succumb. Let us keep our faith firm, remembering that God is faithful and always keeps his promises. May perseverance and patience be our companions on the path of faith! God bless you. (Psalms 119:105; 2 Peter 1:19)
Cristina Jaramillo : Amen excellent
Amen, Sister Cristina. So glad to know that this devotional resonated with you! As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his text, although sometimes we face complex situations and it seems that circumstances contradict our faith, we can cling to the Word of God and trust that He is faithful. His Word is a lamp that illuminates our paths and guides us in the midst of darkness. May you continue to be strengthened in your faith and may the Word of God always be a source of hope and comfort in your life! God bless you abundantly! (Psalms 119:105; 2 Peter 1:19)
Nerida Zurita L: In the world we live in, we are often invaded by the impatience of knowing how to wait for God's response to the negative things that happen every day in the world. But a powerful force urges me to have faith that everything will pass. Well, with God everything is possible. Thank you for guiding me daily in the spiritual.
Amen, sister Nerida. In a world full of uncertainty and negativity, it is understandable that we sometimes feel impatient and desperate for answers from God. But as you mention, we have to remember that with God everything is possible and that He has control over all circumstances. As Dr. Roberto Miranda encourages us in his devotional, "Once we have understood these principles of Scripture, no matter how complex or contradictory what we are experiencing may seem, we must remain firmly bound to what we have learned from the study of the Word." (Dr. Roberto Miranda, Believe even in the midst of complexity). Let us keep our faith in God and trust that He is working in the midst of our difficult situations. May the Word of God continue to guide you and strengthen you spiritually. God bless you abundantly! (Psalms 119:105; 2 Peter 1:19)
MARIA ELENA : VERY INTERESTING IT MADE ME REFLECT MANY TIMES WE LET OURSELVES BE INVADED BY THE THINGS OF THE WORLD AND WE SEE OURSELVES SO INVOLVED THAT WE LOSE THE FAITH THE ESSENCE.. THANK YOU FOR SHOWING ME THAT GOD IS THE ONE WHO LIGHTS THE PATH AND GIVES US THE ENCOURAGEMENT TO FOLLOW
Amen, sister María Elena. It is true that in the midst of the worries and distractions of the world, we sometimes lose sight of the essence of our faith and let ourselves be carried away by circumstances. But how beautiful it is to remember that it is God who illuminates our path and gives us the encouragement to move forward. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, "The Word of God is like a lamp that guides us in the midst of darkness, illuminating our path and giving us hope" (Dr. Roberto Miranda, Believing even in the midst of complexity) . Let us continue to hold on to God's Word and allow Him to guide us in every step we take. May God continue to illuminate your path and strengthen your faith. God bless you richly! (Psalms 119:105; 2 Peter 1:19)
