The magic of a Rainbow draws everyones attention, in awe we exclaim that God is awesome, they are considered lucky, grand and extraordinary. Without rain, there would be no Rainbows....so we all should grant the Lord His palette and let Him paint! The prophet Ezekiel described a far more extraordinary downpour—a shower of blessing (Ezek. 34:26). Ezekiel spoke of a time when God would send blessings like rain to refresh His people. The Israelites would be safe from enemy nations. They would have enough food, be liberated from slavery, and be freed from shame (vv.27-29). These gifts would revive Israel’s relationship with God. The people would know that God was with them, and that “they, the house of Israel, [were His] people” (v.30). God blesses His modern-day followers too (James 1:17). Sometimes blessings abound like rain; sometimes they trickle in one by one. Whether many or few, the good things we receive come with a message from God: I see your needs. You are mine, and I will care for you. “There shall be showers of blessing”— This is the promise of love; There shall be seasons refreshing, Sent from the Savior above. —Whittle Daily blessings are daily reminders of God.
