The Little Things

Some of my greatest experiences I've ever witnessed before God, is when I got to a place where I couldn't go over, under, or around, but just stand still. God makes a way through it somehow. He hasn't failed yet and He never will fail. God cannot fail.

And it seemed like when these children of Israel had got up to this Red Sea, the Pillar of Fire leading them, Pharaoh's army behind them, the mountains and the sea cutting them off… If all nature would have wept out, for this little people unarmed in a great marching army… But sometimes God's path leads right through such places. God wanted to show His power. God loves to display His power.

Oh, sometimes when I take my little Joseph, or one of my little girls, and I set down to talk with them, get them up on my lap, you don't know how it makes me feel. One of them says, "Draw your muscle up, daddy. Oh, you got such a big muscle." There's not much there, but as long as they think that, it makes me feel good.

Our Heavenly Father likes for His children to know that He's got muscles. He can do things for them. And sometimes I bring a conversation up so it has to lead to that. I just love to hear them say it.

57-0629 Stand Still And See The Salvation Of The Lord

God is God of the big things, and He is also God of the little things. We received this testimony from a young brother in Belgium, about how God is mindful if we will just include Him in every part of our lives. 

May God bless you. I have a little testimony for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

A week ago, I had lost the key to my room at the boarding school I am currently attending. I didn't really have time to look for it because of the exams and the projects I had to prepare for. It bothered me though to always have to ask the teachers to open my room, because a woman was taking care of cleaning the rooms, and she was always closing the door after cleaning it. So, I decided today is the day that I needed to find that key.

I searched, searched, and searched again, without success. Then I remembered the testimony of the brother who had lost his ring in the sand. He also had searched and searched, until he remembered that he had not included God in his search. So, I also asked God to forgive me for not including Him, and asked in prayer that He would help me. I kept searching, but still nothing. Then I told the Lord, "You know I need this key, and I don't want to pay to have another one, especially that it's a bit difficult right now." I finally stopped searching, I got ready to go out and took my jacket to wear for the day. When I put my right hand in my jacket pocket, I felt something.

I started to smile. Yes, it was my key. Yet, I had looked in all my jackets a few days before, God is my witness.

I understood something on that day, we must always include God in what we are doing, and we'll have success.

May God bless you.
