There is a story about a certain poor man that sat beside a rich man
during a special anointing service. The pastor of the church asked people to
start asking God for whatever their needs were. The poor man did not take
things easy with God at all, and kept screaming “Lord, all I am asking is just
a 14inches television.” The rich man tried asking him to keep his voice down,
but he kept on and on like that until the rich man beside him could not take it
again.
The rich man turned to the poor man and said, “please, you are
disturbing God from hearing people like us, here is a sum of twenty thousand
naira, go and buy the TV and let there be peace here.” The poor man went home
with his request treated.
In the book of Genesis 32, we read of a story of a man that wrestled
with God. It got to a point in verse 25 that God had to quickly give him an
injury; however, this did not stop the young man – Jacob, from wrestling. He
was so determined that it was either then or never.
When God saw that this young man won’t let go of him like that, He
said, let me go but the young man said, I will not let you go until you bless
me. That day, his story changed, his name changed and everything about him
became new.
The man that will get from God must be that man that is very
determined. You must understand that until you make God your last resort, He
will not sort you.
Our God is a now God. As Christians, we should take every moment
called “now” so serious.
Never assume your miracle is in tomorrow, always have the mindset that
the set time for you is NOW.
For someone, the time for you to be great is now. The time for your
promotion is now. The time for your elevation is now. The time for enlargement
is now. The time for you to have your own baby is now. The time to get that job
is now. The time to excel is now. In Jesus Name. Amen!
