Mariah Carey’s song was the Original Sound Track for Prince of Egypt - a story of God’s miraculous intervention on behalf of an oppressed people group that suffered State Terror, Violence and economic exploitation. For a people who were in bondage, it was a hopeless situation. In fact, it was a dead-end. There was no way of escape (from tyranny and toil).
True, we have prayed many nights and we were filled with hope, even if we did not understand its suspended logic. True, some weren’t really sure if someone was every listening to our words (sometimes spoken in the silence of our hearts). They were told to believe (in God) and they believed God be there for them. But, when things looked really bleak, we all have desperately hoped for a miracle. The hopelessness of the situation makes us demand: ~It’s got to be a miracle! ~It’s got to be you (God)! ~and it’s got to be NOW!
God listens to our prayers. He answers our prayers. (Sometimes, he answers even prayers of people who don’t love him or follow him). Set against the story of slavery and exploitation, the words of the song powerfully breathe hope, faith and love into anyone listening to it.
There can be miracles, when you believe.
Don't ever give up^^
