Today’s exhortation – the greatest gift

In a little over three weeks, Christmas will be upon us and people all over the world will be exchanging gifts. But, the greatest gift of all is this, “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John‬ ‭3:16‬). This week, I visited an elderly man and when he came to open the door, he was hobbling badly on a walking stick. As we spoke, it became apparent that he was lonely and without hope so I asked him if he believed in God and he said “no, because if there was a God He won’t allow bad things to happen.” I thought whether this man believes in God or not, it is my belief that it’s the will of God that he be healed. As the bible says, it is the goodness of God that leads us to repentance. (Romans 2:4)

I asked him if he would like me to pray for God to heal him and to my surprise he said yes. I knelt down and prayed for God to heal him. After praying, I asked him to have walk around to see if he was healed. He did and said his legs felt stronger than before. I prayed again and though he wasn’t completely healed, he was better than before. I pointed out to him that the God he didn’t believe in was responsible for what he was experiencing and then asked him if he would like to invite Jesus into his heart and he said yes and gave his life to The Lord. The greatest gift of all, isn’t just for Christmas, but everyday so share about Jesus today. Amen
