God speaks today Friday | November 8, 2024

And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested. (1 Chronicles 4:10)
And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight. (Mark 10:51)

Give it to us today

We often pray with a lack of faith, using generic and vague language to leave room for an escape clause in case our specific and identifiable miracle doesn't happen. This represents an act of mild spiritual cowardice. Instead, we should put meat in our prayers and submit bold and ambitious requests with specific dates, exercising faith in the Lord. God likes these kinds of prayers and actions that put him to the test. We must trust in the mercy and faithfulness of the Lord, and not doubt. Read more...

What a beautiful expression of trust and worship toward our Lord! As Dr. Roberto Miranda mentions in his devotional, it is important to entrust our requests to God with faith and without doubt, trusting that He can work in ways that exceed our expectations. Let us always remember the story of Jabez, who specifically asked God and received what he requested (1 Chronicles 4:10). May our faith in God lead us to ask with courage and to hope in His faithfulness. God bless you abundantly!
Efigenia Vidal : Faith, a word of great value before God. I have seen the power of God work in things that may seem small in dimension, but important in the spiritual realm. Dealing with mental enemies that are in the human mind, I believe questioning what happens is not appropriate. It is important to recognize the sovereignty of God, which has no comparison to the short vision of the panorama that changes occur. But the will of God is made manifest in His time. I believe that faith makes God respond in His time, because it is propitious until He sees in the believer the strength and confidence that God is in control and will do what is just and necessary. God bless you today and always.
What a profound reflection, Efigenia. Your recognition of the importance of faith and God’s sovereignty in our lives is inspiring. As you mention, trusting that God is in control and that His will is manifested in perfect timing is essential. Just like the blind man in Mark 10:51, who in faith asked Jesus to restore his sight, we too need to maintain an attitude of trust and courage in our requests. May strength and faith in God continue to guide your steps. God bless you abundantly!

Francisco Diaz S.: Without a solid faith, miracles will not be achieved. - A timid and doubtful prayer and request "just in case" will not yield results. - Let's see what happened to Peter when he went to meet the Lord at sea, when he found himself in the middle of the waves he had doubts and fear and sank. - Men of little faith!!
Francisco, your words reflect a profound truth. As you mention, solid faith is essential to see miracles and concrete answers to our prayers. Just like Peter, when he doubted as he walked towards Jesus on the water, it is crucial to maintain a firm and courageous faith in the midst of circumstances. May your trust in God continue to grow, allowing you to experience His power in a supernatural way. May God strengthen you in your faith and guide you in every step you take! Blessings! 🙏

Heidy : Many times, circumstances and people can make us see as if there is no way out of our problem, even more so when it touches the most precious thing, which is our offspring, even when we continue praying and asking the only one who can do the miracle. This word confirms and describes what you must continue doing, without looking to the left or the right. And it is this word that tells us how we should do it since the only one who can respond in any case is God. Thank you Lord for this word that is faithful and true. I bless each person who works for this devotional.
