The Acts of God

UV 813/10,000 The Acts of God “They will speak of the glorious splendour of your majesty, and I will meditate on your wonderful works.” Psalm 145 v 5 Every generation of believers declares the glory and greatness of God to their own and the next generation. He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and each declares to the succeeding generation the faithfulness of the Lord to them. When we declare the praises of the Lord, it raises the bar or the standards by which we live. It is not the visible that motivates us but the invisible God who inspires us by the wonders of His promises to us. We need to constantly meditate on the awesomeness of God. There are three types of wonders that we can meditate on: the wonders of the acts of God as reported in the Word, the wonders of nature and the wonders He has done in the lives of people we know and in our own lives. He moves mountains in our lives. He heals the broken hearted. He sets free sinners from the bondage of sin. He removes rulers and raises up new ones. Mankind has from ancient times listed and admired seven great wonders of the world but the wonders of God cannot be enumerated or listed. A man of God once prophesied to me: “ Your small eyes shall see great wonders.” I experienced wonderful deliverance from physical death twice. I was presented to Her Majesty the Queen as an honour. I experienced astounding success in academics and breakthroughs in my professional life. All these real time experiences have always filled me with a sense of awe and wonder at His mercy, love, power and grace. When we meditate on these wonderful acts of God, we are opening the gateways of heaven so that we experience even greater wonders in the remaining days of our lives. He is waiting eagerly to reveal His glory, splendour and majesty on earth. Prateep V Philip
