SYMPATHETIC FIGURE< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

1Kings 18:1-6

In the face or in the middle of evil representative, despotic action, wicked rulers, and destructive laws, God does have His way and power of positioning a sympathetic figure with faith to help figure out, deliver and provide a way for His children to overcome. A man named Obadiah was such a figure. He was in charge of King AhabÕs house. At the time, Jezebel, the wife of King Ahab, was massacring the prophets of God. It was Obadiah who came to the rescue. One hundred prophets were delivered out of the massacring hand of Jezebel. ObadiahÕs fear of God moved in him and he was able to keep one hundred prophets in a cave with provision of water and bread. Ask God today to position someone in every ground where you are losing favor. Ask Him to position someone that will bring forth a way for you to serve Him without any restriction or hindrance. Also, ask God to position someone in the life of all that governs your land so that your deliverance will come forth. The Apostle Paul was very right when he requested in 1 Timothy2:1-2, ÒTherefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.Ó It does not matter how, where and when you pray a prayer that covers those that are in authority over you, but it does matter that you keep them in constant prayer with consistency that we may live a peaceable life instead of living in divisions and pieces. Obadiah was in place and position to play the role of deliverer for one hundred prophets not to die a sudden and untimely death. God in His goodness and mercy will have His way concerning all that concerns us.
