Under The Shadow

In Matthew 9:8, the crowds watched in awe as Jesus healed the paralyzed man. They “marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.” Their wonder was not just at the miracle, but at the God who moves with compassion, authority, and limitless power.
That same God is present with every person who faces sickness today. His power has not diminished. His heart has not changed. He is still the One who heals the sick, comforts the brokenhearted, and carries His children when their strength fails.
When illness enters our lives, it is easy to feel overwhelmed by our human limits. Treatments are hard. Waiting is long. Fear whispers loudly. But Scripture reminds us again and again that our limitations are not God’s limitations. With God all things are possible. His power reaches beyond what we can see, imagine, or understand.

🌸 A Testimony of His Faithfulness (By a reader)

I have witnessed this truth in my own life. When my daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer, our hearts broke. The road ahead felt impossible. Yet we prayed — and not just us, but friends, well‑wishers, and churches who stood with us in faith. Our simple prayer was this: “Lord, heal our child, and let the side effects be minimal so she can endure the treatment.”
God heard.
God sustained.
God carried.
By His grace, the waiting periods disappeared, doctors became available and finally she entered remission within six months of treatment. She continues her follow‑up therapy, and through it all, His strength has helped her bear the side effects. Truly, His grace was sufficient. Those six months deepened our faith and reminded us that God is still a God of wonders.''
''Every morning and night, our family returns to the shelter of Psalm 91, finding peace under the shadow of the Almighty''.
We should never underestimate the power of God, nor take His presence for granted. In every season — fear, uncertainty, pain, or waiting — we can call upon His name. He invites us to lean on Him, to trust Him, and to believe that He is working for our good even when the path is hard.
He is a God of miracles.
He is near to the brokenhearted.
He holds every tear, every fear, every moment.
And to every patient, caregiver, and loved one, He speaks this promise:
“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
— Isaiah 41:10 (KJV)
May this truth settle deeply into your heart today.
You are not alone.
You are not forgotten.
You are held by the One who still works wonders.
We can choose to live under the shadow of fear, doubt and hopelessness or under the shadow of the Almighty one who will protect us and heal us. Now and forever.
