Bible Reading: Job 42: 7-17
Memory Verse: And the LORD restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. Job 42:10 (ESV)
A woman was barren for many years. One day, she met God’s servant, Dr Uma Okpai. He told her, “God said I should tell you that once you pass the test, your baby will come”. In her mind, she may be thinking the devil was after her child bearing whereas God was fully in charge. Not all problems are sponsored by Satan. You will need to tap into the mind and the ways of God to discern correctly per time.
She waited upon the Lord and passed the test of patience, and after 5 years, her baby came. Not only that, today she has the anointing that bulldoze barrenness. What many people, especially those that have the calling of God upon their lives don’t know is that: It is your divine assignment that will determine the type of problems that will come your way.
Not all problems are sponsored by witches and wizards. God deliberately permit them atimes to try your faith as in the case of Job, and consequently, qualify you for a greater glory. Great glory comes with great test. As soon as Job was broken enough to pray for his supposed enemy-friends, he was restored (Job 42:7-17).
The many side chicks that swarmed around your husband were dispersed as soon as you learnt the act of night prayers. So, really, they were not enemies, but monuments of provocation unto superior performance and greater glory. God’s ways are mysterious. Receive grace to know your real enemies, in Jesus name.
BE A PART OF WHAT GOD IS DOING IN THIS GENERATION. PARTNER WITH THIS WORK OF GRACE TODAY.
