MEMORISE: Proverbs

But

the perfect day.
READ: 1 Samuel 2:7-9
7 The Lord maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth
up.
8 He
raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the
dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of
glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord‘s, and
he hath set the world upon them.
9 He will
keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by
strength shall no man prevail.

HEAVENS DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY
It
doesn’t matter how low you are now, there is still hope for a great future. I
have seen God lift people from the miry clay and take them to the mountain top.
Believe it or not, He will do the same for you, in Jesus’ name. My story is
proof of this; I walked barefoot for the first eighteen years of my life. I can
never forget my final year in grammar school. Prize-Giving day was coming up
and I was supposed to take home many prizes.
Those of us in our final year were to wear white trousers and
shoes but I had no trousers – white, black or red. As for shoes, I had never
owned one. I started lamenting, “God, you know I have no trousers; why did You
allow me to win these prizes?” One day, a boy in the hostel asked me to help
him choose which of his six trousers he should wear for the ceremony. I helped
him choose one and then said, “Ermm, you know I don’t even have one to wear”.
“Pick
one,” he offered. Although the trouser was so big that I nearly had to pull the
waistband up to my chest, I didn’t care; trousers were trousers. Now, the next
problem was shoes. It was then I remembered that I had a poor uncle somewhere
who had some shoes. The pair he gave me was old, with soles made from old lorry
tires. I had to practice walking in them because I had never worn shoes before
in my life. However, when the Prize-Giving day finally came, I had trousers and
shoes to wear to the occasion.
Even
if your current situation is worse than what I have just described, I assure
you that the Lord who lifted me up can do the same for you. Greater days are
coming, if you trust God and lay all in His hands. I must say that God did not
raise me just because He felt like doing so; He did it to show forth His own
glory. He said when your light shines before men, it is so that they can
glorify your Father in
heaven (Matthew 5:16).
If
you dedicate your life to glorifying Him and are never shy to give Him glory
for whatever you achieve, He will raise you, even higher than you can ever
imagine. Anyone who is willing to glorify God with his or her Greater days are
ahead of you, in Jesus’ name.
life will experience divine lifting.
