DAILY SHOWER March 22, 2022 Devotion and Declarations
Prayer before the Word:
_O God I trust in You. Give me wisdom to understand Your word today and be fulfilled in Jesus name, Amen_
TODAY’S TOPIC: Affilected to fulfil God's word
Text: John 9:1-7 (AMP Bible)
“While He was passing by, He noticed a man [who had been] blind from birth. His disciples asked Him, “Rabbi (Teacher), who sinned, this man or his parents, that he would be born blind?” Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but it was so that the works of God might be displayed and illustrated in him. We must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; night is coming when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the Light of the world [giving guidance through My word and works].” When He had said this, He spat on the ground and made mud with His saliva, and He spread the mud [like an ointment] on the man’s eyes. And He said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which is translated, Sent). So he went away and washed, and came back seeing."
*SHOWER:*
Often a time we ask ourselves why must it be us that are passing through certain situations, calamities or problems in life. Have you asked such kind questions to yourself or people around you before? There may always be a time to ask such kind questions in the life of every believer or living soul. The answer is that God holds the key to our lives; and knows why certain things are happening to us. He said He knows the plans He has for us, and had known what we would become before our conception. This scenario played out in the life of this blind man we are studying in today's Bible passage. He was blind from birth and did not know why. When the disciples inquired about it; they were informed that it was not because of his sins but for fulfilment of God's purpose or wonders in his life. What happened at end? Jesus healed him completely with spat on the sand. And people began to ask questions who is that this healed You. His answer here is that I don't know Him. What a wonder working God we serve. Hope you know that the blind man knew that he it was not due to his sin? He has faith too and by that allowed God to manifest His power through him. Let's give chance to God to do wonders through us.
