Don't Count Me Out

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.  And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

Gen 1:1-2

 

It was here in the darkness and chaos that ensued the Spirit of God literally moved upon the face of the darkness. It was here in the chaos of a fallen world after creation that it seemed bleakness would prevail. But here in the midst of the darkness the Spirit of God began to move. Something began to happen….

The darkness of your life, your need, your situation is about to be moved upon by the Spirit of God! God is about to move in your situation.

It may be bleak right now.

The doctors may have looked at you and said you have to die and cannot live.

 Perhaps your spouse has walked out on you.

Maybe your children have walked away from God.

Perhaps it’s financial.

 It might even be discouragement and confusion flashing through your mind.

But whatever it is-

It’s about to meet with a God with which it cannot contend!

The Spirit of God is about to move in your situation.

The actual Hebrew word translated ‘moved’ in this scripture is more accurately translated ‘brooded’ or ‘hovered’. Much in the same sense that a mother eagle broods over her eggs to bring life, it was here in the midst of cataclysmic darkness that the Spirit of God began to brood over the face of the deep.

Like an eagle, the Holy Spirit began to hover over creation and bring life. When an eagle broods over her eggs she completely sets herself down on top of them, she envelopes them completely in order to incubate those eggs until they are ready to burst forth with life.

 I hear God saying in your situation; “Life is about to burst forth!”

Can you hear it as faith begins to rise in your heart?

I don’t know what kind of darkness and disaster you may be faced with but the Spirit of God is about to begin to brood over you.

 He is about to set down over your family, your health, your mind, your children, your finances.

He is about to cover you with His wings and begin to incubate you until your miracle is ready to be birthed.

Your miracle is on the way! I know it may look dark. It may seem impossible- But not with God, for with God all things are possible.

The bleakness and chaos of your circumstances is just the incubation chamber for that which the Spirit of God will birth your miracle from!
