Scripture:
“Therefore, the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call His name Immanuel” (Isaiah 7:14; NKJV).
- God will give you a sign at Advent.
- Signs are indication that something unusual (Supernatural) is about to happen.
- Unusual signs always precede unusual happenings.
- When God gives a sign, it means that He will respond in a supernatural way.
- Signs from God cannot be comprehended or calculated – They can only be understood or discerned by divine revelation.
- As God gave a sign to the Children of Israel about the coming Messiah who would abide with them and save them from sin; so will God give us a sign about His Second Coming.
- God can also give you a specific and unusual sign to announce and usher in your breakthrough, even though we look with hope to the great Day of our Lord’s return!
God will give us a sign at Advent!
Take Action:
When God gives us a sign, we must:
1. LOOK with anticipation for what He will reveal.
2. LISTEN attentively for what He will say.
3. LEARN to accurately discern and distinguish between God’s action and that of the enemy.
POINTS OF REFLECTION: God will give you a sign to:
1. CONFIRM His action! God confirms His actions with miracle, signs, and wonders.
2. COMMUNICATE the meaning of His message to His people in all situation.
3. CANCEL all contradictions that will threaten His will for us.
4. CONNECT us to His eternal purpose.
GOD WILL GIVE YOU A SPECIFIC AND UNUSUAL SIGN TO ANNOUNCE AND USHER IN A SUPERNATURAL BREAKTHROUGH!
Prayer:
Lord, thank you for confirming Your Word with miracles, signs, and wonders. Help me to recognize Your actions in all things, and then teach me to discern what is from You and what the enemy tries to mimic in the process. Give me a renewed vision and cause me to see through spiritual reality. I pray in Jesus name. Amen.
