Miracles

Good  evening. It’s been a while since I’ve done night post,  but Emerson is in a time where he needs to be lifted up in prayer. As many of you who have been reading, I love Jesus. And I am believing that through His power, mercy and ability to heal we will have good news tomorrow.GREAT NEWS! Now I don’t take it lightly when I say that Jesus is in the business of performing miracles. I desire so much for that to be his will for Mac. 

Below I’m going to share some miracles from the gospel. Now the last one I have clung on to as it resonates with Emerson’s story. 

Mark‬ ‭8:22-26‬ ‭ESV

“And they came to Bethsaida. And some people brought to him a blind man and begged him to touch him. And he took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village, and when he had spit on his eyes and laid his hands on him, he asked him, "Do you see anything?" And he looked up and said, "I see people, but they look like trees, walking." Then Jesus laid his hands on his eyes again; and he opened his eyes, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. And he sent him to his home, saying, "Do not even enter the village."”‬‬

Luke‬ ‭8:40-48‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him. And there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler of the synagogue. And falling at Jesus' feet, he implored him to come to his house, for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. As Jesus went, the people pressed around him. And there was a woman who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, and though she had spent all her living on physicians, she could not be healed by anyone. She came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment, and immediately her discharge of blood ceased. And Jesus said, "Who was it that touched me?" When all denied it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds surround you and are pressing in on you!" But Jesus said, "Someone touched me, for I perceive that power has gone out from me." And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed. And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace."

Luke‬ ‭5:17-20‬ ‭ESV

“On one of those days, as he was teaching, Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with him to heal. And behold, some men were bringing on a bed a man who was paralyzed, and they were seeking to bring him in and lay him before Jesus, but finding no way to bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the midst before Jesus. And when he saw their faith, he said, "Man, your sins are forgiven you."”‬‬

‭‭Luke‬ ‭5:12-15‬ ‭ESV

“While he was in one of the cities, there came a man full of leprosy. And when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and begged him, "Lord, if you will, you can make me clean." And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, "I will; be clean." And immediately the leprosy left him. And he charged him to tell no one, but "go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as Moses commanded, for a proof to them." But now even more the report about him went abroad, and great crowds gathered to hear him and to be healed of their infirmities.”‬‬

John‬ ‭9:1-7‬ ‭ESV

“As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. And his disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" Jesus answered, "It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him. We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world." Having said these things, he spit on the ground and made mud with the saliva. Then he anointed the man's eyes with the mud and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which means Sent). So he went and washed and came back seeing.”‬‬

This particular healing resonates with me for Emerson the most. Since Mac’s birth I always felt that he was different. That God had brought him into this world to show of himself, Jesus,  to others. Mac’s life was going to glorify Jesus: Though right now we are at a crossroad not quite knowing ourselves what is to come, I trust that Jesus knew exactly what he was doing when He was creating Emerson. 

Jesus you are amazing. We praise you for who you are and all you do. Though my desire as Emerson’s mom is to keep him safe and protected, I know you want the same thing. Father I pray that though are world is filled with so much evil, you still love us and are still performing miracles. We are praying for a healing miracle in Emerson. 

In your son Jesus precious name, amen
