Memorise:
And I will give this people favour
in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye go, ye
shall not go empty: Exodus 3:21
Read: Exodus 3:7-8
7 And the LORD said, I have surely
seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry
by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;
8 And I am come down to deliver them
out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a
good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place
of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and
the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
Message
Divine involvement simply suggests
God’s participation in a subject matter. When the Almighty God gets involved in
a person’s affairs, it will appear as if the fellow is wiser or more powerful
than others. Nothing becomes impossible for such a person. Whatever the
challenges he or she is facing becomes history. The moment the Almighty God got
involved in the affliction of the children of Israel, things began to work out
for their good. God declared His involvement in their situation in Exodus 3:8 a.
He said:
“And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the
Egyptians”
The first thing God did was to raise
a deliverer for them. I pray that the Almighty God will send helpers to you
this season in Jesus’ Name. Moses, the helper God decided to send, was not
willing because he felt he was not capable. Notwithstanding the Lord did not
only convince him to volunteer himself, He also equipped him. God said to Moses
in Exodus 3:12:
“… Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token
unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out
of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.”
This is one thing that children of
God should know. It is one thing to have a willing helper, and it’s another
thing for the helper to be capable of rendering help.
Several years ago, while traveling
to Ilorin, I saw a young girl crying and shedding tears profusely. My attention
was drawn to her, and I asked my driver to pull up the car beside her. I asked
her why she was crying so much. She told me she had lost her mother’s money and
that unless she found it, her mother would punish her severely. I asked her how
much the money was, and she told me it was “fifty kobo”. I handed the said
amount to her and she galloped away rejoicing. When God gets involved in your
situation, He wipes tears away from your eyes. I prophesy to someone using this
devotional that God will get involved in your situation today, and things will
turn around for your good in Jesus’ Name. However, for God to get involved in
your situation, you must establish a relationship with him. God got involved in
the terrible situation of the children of Israel because of the relationship He
had with their patriarchs – Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Exodus 2:24-25).
Action Point
Cry to God Almighty in the Name of
Jesus to get involved in your situation today.
