Day 39 - God is still God


"A couple at church from our prayer teams prayed for a girl and all they heard her say through her sobbing was “My…mom…” So when he prayed for her mom she started speaking in tongues clearly and loudly. We found out later she had never prayed in tongues before. We were all amazed."

Moments like these remind me that God is still God. This couple was praying for a girl's mom and thought they were praying for one thing but God was doing another thing. 

We see this in the Bible when Peter was preaching to the household of Cornelius. While Peter preached they were all saved and filled with the Spirit and started to prophesy and speak with tongues. Peter was amazed and said that if the Gentiles had been given the Spirit that they should also be baptized in water. 

We should never put God in a box. He is God! He can do whatever He wants. I still see that girl who was prayed for in our church. She is there every week faithfully. God has done great things in her life. I believe in that moment when she was so broken over the situation with her mom that God gave her the gift of Holy Spirit fullness to strengthen her so she could endure. 

Keep your eyes open and look for what God is doing. Let Him lead and follow what He is doing. 

Has God surprised you lately? What do you see Him doing?
