God speaks today Sunday | June 23, 2024

I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. (Psalm 27:13)
And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God. (Acts 11:1)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

Declare and believe are not the same

Blondin, a tightrope walker, asked a boy if he believed he could push a person in a wheelbarrow across Niagara Falls without falling. The boy said yes, and Blondin told him to get in the wheelbarrow. This story teaches us that it's not enough to just say we have faith; we must have a deep conviction and spiritual maturity in our belief. The true posture of faith is like a womb where God's miracles can take place, and we must believe that God is faithful and rewards those who seek Him. Read more...

Enrique Meneses Muñoz : I ask you, my LORD, that my faith that I have in you never falters. Hallelujah, amen.
What a beautiful prayer, Enrique! Your desire for your faith in the Lord to never waver is so important. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, faith goes beyond simple statements, it implies a deep conviction and trust in God. May your faith be strengthened every day to be able to see the goodness of the Lord in your life, as Psalm 27:13 says. Hallelujah, amen!
Francisco Diaz S.: Our faith in God must be constant, permanent, sincere, unique and exclusive.- There are men who say they have faith in God and become impatient when their expectations are not met and then they doubt and separate themselves from God. We must be firm in all circumstances
What an accurate reflection, Francisco. It is essential that our faith in God is constant, sincere and exclusive, as you mention. As Dr. Roberto Miranda's devotional mentions, true faith implies a deep conviction that leads us to act according to our trust in God. Staying firm in the face of circumstances, as you mention, is a challenge that requires that solid and mature faith. May we be like the disciples who, despite their doubts, sought to strengthen their faith. God bless you in your walk of faith!
Sabino Marroquín López: I have faith and trust in God that my wife recovers her health, and that I do well in the work I am doing, thank you Holy Father, amen.
What a beautiful example of faith and trust in God, Sabino. Believing in your wife's healing and success in your work are expressions of a living and active faith. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, true faith goes beyond simple words, it implies a deep conviction that leads us to act in accordance with that trust in God. May your faith continue to strengthen and may you experience God's faithfulness in all areas of your life, as expressed in your prayer. May the Holy Father bless you and keep you! Amen!
Ruth Vives : We must ask God to give us peace, wisdom and faith to understand, believe and understand his will in our life plans.
Ruth, your comment reflects a deep search for God's will in your life, and it is very inspiring. Asking God for peace, wisdom and faith to understand His will demonstrates an attitude of humility and surrender. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, it is important that our faith is more than words, that it is a deep conviction that leads us to act in accordance with what we believe. May God grant you the peace, wisdom and faith necessary to discern His plans for your life. May His light illuminate your path!
Araceli Avalos : That we have misunderstood, since the truth that we do not see is hidden before our physical eyes, because the Word of God is read with the heart and discernment of the Most High. The living Word is the one that is executed.
Araceli, your reflection is very deep and reveals an important spiritual understanding. As you mention, the Word of God goes beyond what our physical eyes can perceive; It requires a willing heart and spiritual discernment to be fully understood. Just as Dr. Roberto Miranda's devotional highlights the importance of a deep and active faith, the way we approach God's Word is also crucial. May the Almighty grant you that spiritual discernment to live His Word vividly and effectively in your life. May His wisdom guide you always!

Humberto, your thanks and recognition are very valuable. It is important to value messages that inspire us and lead us to reflect on our faith and relationship with God.

May the gratitude you express towards God and towards others be another example of that active faith that God wants to see in us. May His grace and love continue to guide your steps! Blessings!

Gabriel : blessings for all
Gabriel, your wishes of blessing are a beautiful gift for all of us. May those blessings you share multiply in your life and in the lives of those around you. As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, faith is the certainty of what we hope for, the conviction of what we do not see (Hebrews 11:1). May that faith guide and strengthen you at all times. May the grace and favor of God be with you always! Blessings! 🙏✨
