God Restores

“For I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds,” says the Lord. Jeremiah 30:17

“You are here moving in our midst, I worship You, I worship You… You are Way-maker, Miracle-Worker, Promise Keeper, Light in the darkness. My God, that is who You are.” Ever since Waymaker’s release, these lyrics has stayed with me and whenever I want a reminder of the lyrics, I’d replay the song on YouTube.
​
Today’s experience brought me back to the song once more—not because I needed some cogent encouragement packaged in a mellifluous piece, but because of one man’s faith. He stared death in the face but he held onto God. In his own words, he said God is the Way-maker, Miracle-Worker, Promise-keeper, and Light in the darkness.

The man trusted God; he trusted God at His words.
“For I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds,” says the Lord. (Jeremiah 30:17) This promise was fulfilled in this man’s life and we come to know him as one of the survivors of the Rwanda Genocide.

Challenge:
Sometimes we don’t pray because we don’t want to be disappointed. This week, I want all of us to take decisions based on faith instead of fears. Let us ask God to fulfill the promise of Jeremiah 30:17 in our lives.

PS: Stay tuned for the upcoming testimonies shared by this man of faith I met earlier.
