FOOD FOR THE SOUL Matthew 13:44-46 RHEMA Matthew 13:45-46 45 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, 46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.
In the world, there are various types of precious and exceptional stones, but Black Opal is one of the most exceptional types of opal gemstones in the world. Almost all Black Opals are mined at Lightning Ridge in South Wales. Because of the scarcity of the stone, the price the market gives for this stone is around $ 2,300 or equivalent to 33,350,000 rupiah per carat. It's very expensive, isn't it?
But beyond a Black Opal stone, there are things that are far more valuable and exceptional that God currently provides for us. One of such is God's mighty visitation. Did you know that the visitation which God promises us today is the greatest of all visitations ever? If you observe, God's visitation is getting even more real and exceptional each time. When the early church experienced a tremendous visitation, 3000, 5000, and many more souls were saved. During God's visitation to Wales, England, tens of thousands of souls were saved. During the Lord's visitation to America, especially at Azusa Street, hundreds of thousands were saved. God's visitation in Korea saw 800,000 to millions of lives turned to Christ. God's visitation in Nigeria led millions of people to the Lord. And God's mighty move that He is set to do in our midst will be of a much bigger magnitude than the world has ever witnessed! That is why this visitation is a very exceptional and valuable event.
I urge us to see this mighty visitation as exceptional and valuable, so that we respond appropriately in faith, and become part of this awesome and extraordinary move of God. Don't be left behind in the time of God's mighty visitation!
