Unseen and unheard!
Verse for Today: Saturday, November 17, 2012
Joshua 24:13 – So I gave you a land on which you did not toil and cities you did not build; and you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant.
The goodness of God is beyond measure and expectations. He gives to His children in a way that is far superior to what any other source would give. When He gives, He doesn’t expect anything in return except a grateful heart from us. He acts in such an unprecedented speed for His children to enjoy His favors. He prepares all that His children need at the right time. When Prophet Elijah was hungry, his meals were ready at the right time. It included the kind of menu that would be cherished by anyone in the land. When the banquet hall at Cana was short of wine, it was made available by the Lord Jesus at the right quantity and quality with the best of taste, to the amazement of all the guests. A small measure of bread was enough for Him to feed thousands of people to their satisfaction. He provided ready made food for the Israelites for forty long years in the most difficult place like a desert. He produced the best drinking water for two million people and their cattle at the split second. God’s children had readied farm land, cities and houses to dwell in and sweetest grapes and nourishing olive fruit to eat. All of these provisions show us the great heart of concern and care that God has for His children. God’s provisions often take His children by surprise because they are far beyond expectation and often above reason and logic because it emanates from God’s heart full of love and concern for His children. These provisions are beyond what any eyes have seen or ears have heard. Today He meets our daily physical, emotional and spiritual needs far beyond measure or expectation.
Dear reader, are you walking along with the Lord with the expectation that He will meet all your needs? You will not be disappointed in any way because what He gives will be beyond your expectations. Perhaps what He gives may not be what you expect and sometimes you will feel frustrated that you are not given what you desired. But eventually you will learn great lessons about the heart of God with which He gives you His best at His best time. Along with that, He gives you patience, maturity, joy and faith to keep trusting Him for what He will give you. God has best interest in our affairs and He will meet it all in the best possible manner. He uses the seemingly insignificant agents to supply your needs. He sends your food through a raven and employs a few servants to serve the best of wine. His instrument for getting water out of a rock is a wooden staff and not a sharp metallic instrument. A simple sharp stone from the field is sufficient for Him to bring down the tallest and most powerful soldier who tries to devour you. He uses a fish to teach you great lessons in your life of faith and obedience. Even the most basic cereals will make His children stronger than their contemporaries who eat the best of the royal gourmet. Yes, our God is the great supplier of our needs in the most unimaginable manner to meet our every need provided we are willing to put our faith in His capacity and willingness to give us. This God is with you today to meet all your needs if only you are willing to take the risk of believing on Him and put all your faith and trust in Him.
1 Corinthians 2:9 – No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him.
