Beholding His miracles and tucking them away in to my treasure box of gifts from God has become one of the kingdom principles God has taught me to proclaim His truth, defeat the lies of the enemy and keep this pilgrim’s focus on all of the goodness our loving God has lavishly given.

This past week my eyes beheld two of the sweetest and largest life-sized miracles I have witnessed this past year. And how incredibly precious that each of these miracles was given to two of my dearest friends, who have walked some of the deepest and darkest valleys with valiant and steadfast bravery. Each of these women is a warrior who wholeheartedly serves God, her family and her friends with loyalty and deep love in the midst of their journeys that have tested her faith in some of life’s most challenging circumstances.

The Great Reversal of God. That is what my eyes beheld this week.

After years of an uphill fight with the big C word, one of my bff’s father got word that the cancer had invaded more of his body. I could feel the crushing blow and winced at the emotional pain that was taking my precious sister’s heart and her beloved father and family further down the winding and painful road. My own words failed to soothe and comfort, and all I could offer was an embrace and empathetic tears, but for two days the Word, and the prayers of many saints continued even as the “expert’s doubting questions” loomed overhead and more test were run.

But God…

The phone call that anyone in the awful C fight wants to hear came at an extremely unexpected and less than 24 hours later. “We can’t explain it”, the experts said. “It doesn’t make any logical sense. The spots were, without a doubt, “there” last week”, they proclaimed. But the God of Angel Armies expertly painted a different picture of the organ He had handcrafted and intricately woven together just days later with His vision and His truth. The explanation was so sweetly spoken to one of His bravest fighters, and his family: “I am God. I’ve got this.”   And He offered this beautiful family His perfect, comforting embrace at the perfect time and in the perfect way. Holy Ground. With absolute bravery and walking the victory road before they can even see “the how”, they each have proclaimed Who He is and What His miracle-working power can do with each and every step on this still arduous journey with the Great I Am.

This miracle has left me completely undone.

But God…

I loaded up my car and hit a sweet familiar road just a couple of days after this, to visit another dear and beloved friend a few miles up the road who now drives a car with a different color license plate. She has been gone from this zip code for a little over 4 years. I will never forget the day she left as her car was loaded to the brim with her three precious children I also dearly loved. My tears flowed freely as I released her in to the hands of Jesus for the millionth time. I blindly couldn’t envision the road before her.

They were heading to their new life, and the driver of the SUV was fully loaded with only the promise of a miracle for her marriage, and she was completely equipped with the faith that God was going to heal and strengthen the marriage covenant He had blessed from the minute they chose to walk their lives together. She was setting out on her victory road with those two necessary and powerful tools. The Word of God that He had sweetly spoken to her, and the faith that He was going to heal and work all things together for good was tucked away in the very tool belt of her being. She couldn’t even see the arduous journey ahead. Or better yet, He wouldn’t let her see what was up ahead until it “was His time.” His clarity is a better choice.

And almost four years later, I stood just a few feet away, not two days after the repainted scans were clearly delivered, and I heard the loud and glorious triumph of two unbelievably beautiful people, one HOLY & sacred covenant, and I was made fully aware that I was standing on Holy Ground. I witnessed these two incredibly brave and faithful people of God declaring the miraculous and victorious goodness of their healing God.

“Undone” is an unending fuel when traveling with the Miracle-Working God…

My Prayer

I am taking just these two powerful miracles, and these two powerful walks of faith, and loudly writing them and tucking them away in my treasure box as a declaration of the goodness of who you are God. I cannot count the miracles you have shown me in my life Jesus. They just can’t be numbered. But twice in one week You spoke so clearly and loudly to me, and today I choose to proclaim and believe (faith) that You are who You say You are (Truth), You are a promise-keeping God. You are a restoring and redeeming and miraculous-working God. This declaration will always defeat the lies of the enemy. This TRUTH lights the path to an unforeseen future. A future that has been written before the beginning of time can be trusted into the hands of a faithful Life-Author.  Thank you Jesus for the miracles I witnessed this week. They were miracles from the very throne room of heaven Hand-Written, Hand-Painted before the beginning of time. Thank you for choosing to let me see them Hand-Delivered at the Perfect Time. Your Holy Ground is too beautiful for words and standing in Your midst is always priceless.

                                       

You are a Promise Keeper and a Miracle Worker. You have also given me promises and I know and proclaim exactly what they are, and WHO you are. I choose to walk in faith even when I can’t see the journey that lies ahead.

My path is victorious and full of beauty and redemption.
