Word from God’s Word-Rain

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Word from God’s Word is Rain.

Acts 14:17 says about God, “He has not left himself without testimony: He has shown kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy.”

Just as the land is nourished by rain from above and yields crops for food, so the word of God has a nourishing impact on our soul, and yields a spiritual crop with eternal value.

In Isaiah 55:10 and 11, the LORD says, “The rain and snow come down from the heavens and stay on the ground to water the earth. They cause the grain to grow, producing seed for the farmer and bread for the hungry. It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit.” This comparison of rain to God’s Word is a compelling reason to give thanks to God for the physical and spiritual nourishment He provides for us.
