It’s a beautiful sunny morning. I just got to work and to my surprise the house-keeping lady got me a big piece of water melon. It was so refreshing. Isn’t it a nice morning surprise? Well, summer is finally here! Yaay!
I was inspired this morning to keep believing in big miracles, those things that are totally impossible in our own strength. I was reading from the book of Joshua chapter 9 and 10. This has been one of my favorite stories in the Bible. I'm always astonished of how Joshua could stop the sun. Can you believe someone could actually say “O SUN, STAND STILL”? And it happened! The sun actually stood still and delayed going down about a full day! WOW! Also I heard that it's proved historically that the sun stood still during the time of Joshua. I'm actually tempted to stop the sun :P nah, just kidding!
How bold was Joshua? All though the Gibeonites and Joshua had made a mistake God was still with them and they won the battle. God is the same today. Our dreams and visions need to be big and bold. If our need is too big for us to handle, it’s just the right size for God. We serve a big God. We need “sun stand still” miracles. We need faith to move on and trust God without wavering. Even when we have made mistakes God is gracious and helps us win the battles.
Nature is waking up to spring and summer. I’m encouraged by summer and by the story about Joshua, and I hope you will be encouraged, too. God has a “sun stand still” miracle for you and me, whatever we need, but we have to ask for it!
Say hello to summer!!!
