THERE IS NO ACCIDENT FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN CHRIST
Bible in A Year: Judges 6, Judges 7:1-8; John 5:16-30; Psalm 57:7-11
“Yahweh said to Gideon, “I will save you by the three hundred men who lapped, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, each to his own place.””
Judges 7:7 WEB
The Israelites under the control of the Midianites were oppressed, tortured and killed. But, they called out to the Lord and He listened to them and freed them from the hands of their enemy. The glory of God was manifested through the defeat of the Midianites by Gideon and his army of three hundred soldiers. No matter how much adversity they faced, the Israelites knew God blessed them and His glory was shown through it all.
A few months ago, I was an overweight man weighing 204 pounds. Sometimes at night, I felt shortness of breath, exhaustion and breathing issues, to the point where I had to get up frequently to drink water or sleep sitting down. I tried to lose weight but I was not successful. I had a health checkup and found I had diabetes and high blood pressure. After two weeks, I tested positive for COVID-19. I was sick for two weeks. I could not eat and had a fever. After recovering from COVID-19, I had lost 34 pounds. I was happy I shed that weight. Furthermore, I felt like I was a new person. I no longer eat like I used to. I exercise and sweat every evening. I avoid sweet food. I also take some medicine. Now, I no longer have diabetes and high blood pressure. I thank God for answering the prayers of many on my behalf and allowing me to get through the COVID-19 illness. Now, I am like a new person. I am happy and healthier.
I want to testify that there is no accident for those who believe in Christ. The blessings and glory of God are in every situation. Finding God’s grace in adversity is a way to practice our faith.
Reflection
Have you ever found God blessings in hardship? Please share with others.
Prayer
God, please forgive us. Sometimes, we complain, get annoyed, and feel irritated in facing life experiences. Help us to discern how You are working in our lives. Teach us to find your blessings in hardship. I pray in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
