Whenever God wants to help a man, He will often do it by creating opportunities by bringing people who need help around him. For your help to come, you may need to look at people that you need to help. They will in turn, be your helper. Our help, in many cases are packaged in a man who does not look like it. People who seems to be useless and helpless are sometimes helps in disguise.

David was a young man who needed the help of God. His master was willing to kill him, and he was just running about to hide. But right in his hopeless situation, God’s word says the distressed, the debtor and the sorrowful came to him. For what? They needed food. They needed someone to pay their debt. They needed someone to remove their sorrow. David himself had nothing to give. Rather, he turned these people into an army, and he became their commander. By and large, I am sure their debts were paid, and their sorrow turned to joy. They eventually became the mighty men of David.

Friend, if anyone is turning to you for help while you may not have what to give, try to be part of seeing him/her out of the situation. Learn to put your case aside to be a helper in your own little way. It could be to introduce him to someone for a job or contract. It could be to show him something he could do. And he may in turn be your helper.

Prayer: Lord, help me not to miss my help when it comes.

“OUR OPPORTUNITY TO BE HELPED ARE OFTEN HIDDEN IN OUR WILLINGNESS TO BE A HELP”

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.
