Expect the unexpected

Isaiah 55:5 - Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.

Today I like to give testimony some time before the recession started I was given a message about how progress will come to almost a standstill. Also with that I was given an idea that things will change after about 10 months. In December I shared this message with my partner who is a un-believer (but has experienced God's glory) and he laughed at it. Looking at the situation no sensible person would imagine that things will change before 2 years at the least. When I told him this, I too did not know how things will change.

To add to it one of our biggest contracts got threaten and the organization under which we were working, their contract was getting terminated. Tenders were called and others also bided. Then we had received a message that the Lord is going to bless us, I believed and received it. Another organization which also bided for the tender tied up with us for the same contract and offered us better prices. Today they have been given the contract with us continued at the backend with better prices and more people. Even at this of recession while the world is throwing out people and we are doubling our staff! When I contacted placement organization for the X number of people, they could not believe and asked me to give this in writing. My partner today smiles when I remind him for exactly in 10 months (2 months more) we are will be will be working under our new contract.

If you have received a Word and believed in it you will surely receive your blessing. The situation around you, your intelligence and people around you will tell you it is not possible, but our God is a God who specializes in the impossible.

All you people of God your recession is period is in your hand to finish. Our God is given you a promise if you believe you will receive, if not you can wait with the rest of the world in the flesh for things to change.


[ Prayer Starter ]

Father God, You are our God and your love for us is great. You want to show the world that we are your people and differentiate us from them by our blessings. Lord, help us believe and receive and be a witness to everyone that our God is God. I ask this in Jesus' Name, Amen.


[ Reference Scriptures ]

Isaiah 55:5-11
5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.
6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

The Word of God was given free to us, therefore we should also share it freely with others. (All rights are with God)
