FAITH CAPSULE: This season of time, be more diligent, studious seeking God for divine intervention.

1 Samuel 1

All year long, searching to receive solution or to overcome unacceptable challenge remains impossible. Does that sound like you? It is time to become languid or tireless of not getting your expectation. However, it is time to become diligent, studious seeking God. At the time man is thinking it is too late to receive breakthrough is the time of God visitation if man will remain focus on God but not focus on man’s intervention. Without doubt, time and process of time belongs to God not paying attention to man-made clock. It is important that we remain persistent when praying to God for His divine intervention. Persistence is the evidence of faith. To stop asking when expectation is yet to be manifested represents shutting down faith.
Imagine, At the age of forty, Isaac took Rebekah as his wife. The bible recorded that at sixty years of age Isaac had his first child. Evidently, Isaac waited for twenty years before Rebekah’s barrenness ceased. Twenty years must have been long years for Isaac. However, Isaac was not quiet before God during the season of waiting. It is written, “Now Isaac pleaded with the LORD for his wife, because she was barren; and the LORD granted his plea, and Rebekah his wife conceived.” (Genesis 25:21) History and time of Isaac’s father to wait was not enough to stop Isaac from asking and pleading with God. Have you been pleading to God for His intervention concerning any area of challenge in your life? Be encouraged and know that it is never too late to keep on waiting and pleading for God’s intervention.
Joseph the apple of his father’s (Jacob) eye, at age of seventeen was on an errand by his father to go and check out the well-being of his brothers. It was not until after thirty-plus years that his father set eyes on him. Communication between Joseph and his loving father was ceased but consistent pain of missing each was more pain on the father’s side. Is there a loving one, the apple of your eye that is missing? Evidently, waiting on God’s divine intervention to bring each other back seems like forever. Trust and hope in God which re-united Joseph and Jacob will also re-unite you and your missing love ones. It is possible! God is a God of possibility.
Be encouraged knowing that God does not sleep over your challenge. In the coming days, weeks, months or years your mockery shall be converted to miracle in Jesus name. The God who granted Isaac’s plea will grant yours in Jesus name. The same God that eventually brought re-union between Joseph and Jacob after painful of over thirteen years will acknowledge your pain to favor you in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Ask God for His grace to locate you in every area of pain. In the coming days your mockery shall be converted to miracle in Jesus name.
