Word for the day "My Faith looks up to thee Lord"

II Kings 3:15 (NKJV) But now bring me a musician. “Then it happened, when the musician played, that the hand of the LORD came upon him. 16 And he said, “Thus says the LORD: ‘Make this valley full of ditches.’ 17 For thus says the LORD: ‘You shall not see wind, nor shall you see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, so that you, your cattle, and your animals may drink.’ 18 And this is a simple matter in the sight of the LORD; He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.To human thinking it was simply impossible, but nothing is too hard for God. Without a sound or sign, from sources invisible and apparently impossible, the floods came stealing in all night long; and when the morning dawned, those ditches were flooded with the waters of God, and reflecting the rays of the morning sun from the red hills of Edom.Our unbelief is always wanting some outward sign. The religion of many is largely sensational, and they are not satisfied of its genuineness without manifestations, etc.; but the greatest triumph of faith is to be still and know that He is God (Psalm 46:10). I see God even when others can't see God!The great victory of faith is to stand before some impassable Red Sea, and hear the Master say, "Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord," and "Go forward!" As we step out without any sign or sound, not a wave-splash, and wetting our very feet as we take the first step into its waters, still marching on we shall see the sea divide and the pathway open through the very midst of the waters. With all going on in our lives as this year is coming to a rapid close, my faith looks up to thee Lord!If we have seen the miraculous workings of God in some marvelous case of healing or some extraordinary providential deliverance, I am sure the thing that has impressed us most has been the quietness with which it was all done, the absence of everything spectacular and sensational, and the utter sense of nothingness which came to us as we stood in the presence of this mighty God and felt how easy, it was for the Lord to do it all without the faintest effort on His part or the slightest help on ours.Point to ponder- It is not the part of faith to question, but to obey. The ditches were made, and the water came pouring in from some the supernatural source (That being God). What a lesson for our faith! Are you craving a spiritual blessing? Open the trenches, and God will fill them. And this, too, in the most unexpected places and in the most unexpected ways. Oh, for that faith that can act by faith and not by sight, and expect God to work although we see no wind or rain.My faith looks up to thee family of God in this season of Christ-Mas!All for His Glory,Pastor James Baker, Jr.
