OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL
A DAILY DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS
DATE: WEDNESDAY 2ND SEPTEMBER, 2020
TOPIC: THE GOD OF SMALL THINGS! THE CONTROLLER OF LITTLE THINGS!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: PROVERBS 3:1-10
The LORD has been speaking to someone in this 3rd quarter of the year on tearing away DISCOURAGEMENT due to perceived delays or SMALL/SLOW progress! Remember that Caroline Wozniacki said: “On grass, it can be the small things that decide a match.”
There are two ways you can respond to slow or delayed progress! First, this reality should prompt a deep dependence on the sovereignty of God. You can’t control or manipulate the little things or small things or little progress, but GOD CAN! Delays or chance events or random circumstances aren’t chance or random at all in the light of God’s perfect work in your life! NOTHING JUST HAPPENS!
Your sovereign God is at work, willing and working according to His good pleasure in order to complete the good work He started long ago before you were born (Philippians 1:6; 2:13).
There’s no doubt that your final product is going to look far different from the events around your life now! You may feel like a pinball (tennis ball) at times – bouncing from one little thing to the next without clarity on exactly where you are heading to, but because JEHOVAH is sovereign and because He is good, you can trust Him with all of your heart, and not lean on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5).
And, when you don’t understand all the events around your life and ministry at times, you can rest in the fact that somehow, is some way, your OMNISCIENT CREATOR is going to make a way where there seems to be no way (Proverbs 3:5-6). If you can’t take care of the small details, GOD can! I call Him, THE GOD OF THE SMALL DETAILS!
He is the God of the SLOW TIMES and the God of the FAST TIMES! In today’s challenging times, BIGGER OR FASTER is not always better! In fact, sometimes, it’s often the baby steps that put us on the path to delivering a truly competitive advantage! The real secret of getting ahead in life, ministry, family or career, etc, is to refocus your attention on the small details that, if disregarded, can CRASH YOUR DESTINY or relationships!
Indeed, as Booker T. Washington noted, “Success in life is founded upon attention to the small things rather than to the large things; to the everyday things nearest to us rather than to the things that are remote and uncommon.”
So, when you don’t understand all the delays, the slow downs, battles/circumstances permitted into your life, always remember, God knows! Trust Him! Hold on and hold out! For Tithe, Offering, Charity, and Donations: use the accounts below.
