God is preparing your heart and your life for the next big adventure He has for you. So capture the moment. It will be astounding what will happen when you walk into the timing of the miracle God has.
He wants to be involved in every detail of your life. That relationship God has for you to form, He’ll give you the moment for it to begin.
He'll give you the moment when a door opens for your desire to come to pass.
The moment comes for you to see change happen.
The moment it’s right to make that investment.
The moment it’s best to start that project or do something in your work or career or calling.
The moment when you know the miracle is happening in your health, your emotions or mind.
The moment when God calls you to a deeper walk in Him or to reach out to someone.
God gives you moments when it’s time for you to have a new home or new car.
He has the next big adventure planned for you. But you must capture the moment when it comes. I’ll show you from the Bible how this works. The Word always sets a precedent and the foundation for us to understand how God moves. He gives us moments to capture that can transform conditions.
This example is when the apostle Paul and Barnabas were preaching the Word of God in a place called Lystra. Now it’s important to note they are speaking the Word that has hope and deliverance in it. A Word that shows the people how as they receive Christ, they can experience salvation and the great benefits and blessings that come.
By a divine plan, there was a man hearing all of this. Here’s his condition. The Bible says he found it impossible to use his feet for he was a cripple from birth. He never had walked. He never had been on his own two feet and gone anywhere by himself.
Notice it says he found it impossible to use his feet. Sometimes you find that things seem impossible. By human standards that’s true. But not by God’s standards.
When that man hears the Word of God and understands he can be healed, his spirit reaches out to capture that moment. Oh the moment when we know that we know it’s possible. God can do this. If I will believe, I can receive. That man is feeling this. He’s about to go on a journey to health. Well, Paul who is tuned into the Spirit, realizes it.
All of a sudden, Paul directs his gaze on him. When he does, he observes this man had faith to receive a miracle. And you know the way Paul was. He didn’t waste any time. He captured that moment. He shouted at the man. Now that’s interesting. He didn’t just quietly walk over and speak to him; he shouted. He wanted everyone to hear what was about to happen. He said, Stand on your feet. (Ref. Acts 14:10 TLB.)
How can you say that? How can you walk up to a man who is crippled and has never used his feet and tell him to get up? You can do it when you sense this is the moment. God has sent this moment for you. Capture it.
So Paul acted. Because of it, that man jumped up and began walking around. No, he didn’t crawl. He didn’t scoot on the ground trying to get up. He didn’t beg people to take his arms and raise him up to see if he could get some kind of stability. By himself he jumped up on a pair of legs that have never walked. That’s impossible! His muscles were atrophied, he was weak, there wasn’t proper flow of blood to them. All the reasons why he couldn’t jump up and walk.
We may think of all the reasons something can’t happen for us. It’s impossible. But you see that man was hungry to have a new way of living, he was eager to see how life could be different for him.
Are you to that point? You’re hungry to see God move in a new way for you. You have heard the Word this day just as the man heard the Word from Paul, and his spirit responded. So your spirit can respond to what God is speaking to you. Capture your moment from God.
Spiritual Powerline to say out loud:
“I’M READY FOR MY MIRACLE MOMENT!”
Here is a powerful prayer to say out loud:
Lord, I’m ready to jump up and walk into my miracle. So I capture this moment that You’re speaking to my spirit. I believe I will see You move the impossible out of the way and cause Your will to be done in my life. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
