SCRIPTURE READING: LUKE 8: 41-56
FOCUS: “And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.” (Luke 8: 56)
MEMORY VERSE: “Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.” (Acts 4: 16)
When Jesus was done raising the daughter of Jairus back to life, He commanded them not to speak about it. Jesus commanded them not to tell any man what was done. Jesus raised their daughter from the dead, and instructed that there was no need to say a word about what He had done. The miracle He did was not such that needed the parents to talk about it. The miracle He did was not such that needed an advert.
Friend, hear me as I hear the Lord: in this season, you will witness miracles that will speak for themselves. You will witness miracles that will scream at the rooftops. You will witness miracles that men will see and not need to be told that only God could have done it. You will witness miracles that will shock everyone that hears it. You will witness miracles that you will not have to talk about. You will witness speaking miracles.
People had gathered in the house of Jairus because they heard that his daughter had died; someone had even come from the same house to tell him that his daughter had died and that he should not trouble the Master; imagine what happened the moment when that same dead daughter was raised back to life. Hear me as I hear the Lord: all those who already heard your bad news, will be astonished by what El Roi is set to do for you.
There are miracles that need not be spoken about. There are miracles that speak for themselves. There are miracles that are so significant that people would naturally hear about them. When God turns the dead back to life, the miracle advertises itself. Even the person who does not want to hear about it, will simply hear and see it. It will be said that your miracles were so loud that even the deaf heard about it.
Welcome to that season of huge miracles that will advertise themselves. Welcome to your season of speaking miracles.
