I could never forget that day. I saw the Rhema Movers truck twice! And on the same day, I read several verses on the word ‘marvel’: in Stephen’s address in Acts 7:31, when Moses saw it (the burning bush), he marvelled at the sight. When the lame man walked, Peter asked in Acts 3:12: men of Israel, why do you marvel at this? In Acts 4:13: When the crowd saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marvelled, and they realised that they had been with Jesus.
All these caught my attention. I began to reflect on this personal (rhema) word from the Lord. He directed me to Genesis 18:14: “Is anything too marvellous for the LORD to do? At the appointed time, about this time next year, I will return to you, and Sarah will have a son.” (Genesis 18:14 NABRE)
See the odds against Sarah? Sarah was old, advanced in age and past childbearing age. But God said she would have a son. And the LORD visited Sarah as He had said, and the LORD did for Sarah as He had spoken. For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.” Genesis 21:1-2
So I marvel. Indeed, is anything too marvellous for the LORD to do? In the year 2021, what He said He would do, He did God always delivers as promised.
