HE IS IN CONTROL AT EVERY STAGE

“Who delivered us from so great a death and doth deliver: in whom we trust that He will yet deliver us’’  - 2 Corinthians 1:10

God is our deliverer from ages past. He was, He is and He is to come. Hence, in all situations, regardless of its degree of hopelessness and impossibility to finite minds of mortal man, He is in control unless He chooses not to do it for reasons best known to Him alone. He proved Himself in the lives of people who need no support like the woman with the issues of blood. 

At such level that might not be all that critical, He was God and in control of everything. He shows himself strong in the lives of those who need little support like the man by the sea of Bethsaida (John 5:1-9). Even though he had been there for long, yet, Jesus proved to all and sundries that He was in charge. Do you see yourself as being weak? Needing some little support to complement yours for great performance? God will show up for your sake in Jesus name. 

God is in control in the cases of people who are totally helpless. The man, who was let down by four men from the roof before Christ, illustrated the state of total helplessness. He could not help himself in any way whatsoever. What really moved Christ to action was the faith of men that brought him. At such level of helplessness, He took control and healed the man. (Mark 2:1-5). Dorcas fresh body came back to life. Stinking body of Lazarus who died for four days ressurected. 

At any crital state, God has been in charge. He brought to life a great army in Ezekiel chapter 37. This was beyond helplessness, or hopelessness, they were dead, dry, dipersed and forgotten. Yet, when God appeared, and they came alive and stood again. You will stand again irrespective of your current state in Jesus name. Therefore, if God took control in all these aforementioned cases, He will take care of you. You just need to repent of your sins. Return now to Him in case you have slided back. Be hopeful, be strong, be happy and ‘’he will come and save you’’ so cried Isaiah the prophet. 

Today’s Recite: “Though He slays me, yet will I trust Him. - Job 13:15 

Today’s Morning Prayer: I thank You Lord for You are in control of every stage of my life. I receive faith to seek You at all times in Jesus name. I refuse to lose hope in Jesus name. I receive grace to wait for my testimony in Jesus name. Oh Lord, have your way in my case in Jesus name I pray. Amen!
