WHEN LIGHTNING STRIKES
*WISDOM FOR TODAY.*
*WHEN LIGHTNING STRIKES....*
*Scripture Treasure.*
Proverbs 4:18 *But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.*
*Insight and Highlight.*
Ps 97:4 *His lightnings lit up the world; The earth saw and trembled.*
*Scripture Commentaries.*
There is a idiomatic expression which says people hope "lightning will strike a second time."
Hoping lightning strikes twice is a tem used to describe when one is expecting
an unusual miracle to happen to the same person in the same place, a second time.
When this expression comes to mind, the world call it luck but we call it miracles.
Though, an expression, but many doubt if lightning will strike twice on the same person. Be however assured, God can give you more than one miracle in the same place.
There are double miracles, even more than double miracles recorded to the same person, in the same place, Hannah in 1 Sam 2:21.
2 Sam 21:22 records four miracles of David's triumph over Goliath and his children. *These four were born to the giant in Gath, and fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.*
Lightning is a symbol of illumination, Ps 97:4.
Lightning symbolizes God's attribute of divinity and power.
As it illuminates, often along with thunder, they were instrument of God's judgment on the Egyptians, Exod 9:23-24.
Jesus says in Matt 24:27 *For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.*
If you are on the Lord's side, you can experience more than one miracle in the same place. "Lightning can strike twice" to favor you.
May nature favor you, in Jesus name.
*Remorse corner.*
God directs lightnings.
As lightning struck the Egyptian, judgment came upon them. The more it struck, the more deliverance came to the Israelites.
Job 36:32 *He fills his hands with lightning bolts and hurls each at its target.*
*Call to Word action.*
Matthew 28:3 *And his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.*
*The Christian clarion duty.*
Make sure you remain on the Lord's side.
His lightning can be a form of punishment to the disobedient.
*Prayer.*
When lightning strikes, let it bring illumination and deliverance into my life, in Jesus name.
Good morning all and have a blessed day today.
God bless you.
