For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them. (Psalms 44:3, KJV)
A friend came to my place on Saturday evening, during the cause of his visit he shared with me the story of a brilliant young man who God had bless with academic excellence, after which he went into the labour market with all his wealth of knowledge but could not get anything reasonable. Even with the little he got he still had nothing to show for it until it was discovered that his own mother who carried him for nine months, went through the troubles of life to send him to school was the same person who had sold his destiny away in their witchcraft coven.
Perhaps you are successful and skillful at what you do and have told yourself; “I am a guru” and that your strength and labour brought you where you are now. Dear friend, I am sorry to disappoint you, it is God who has kept you if not the enemies would have had a feast on you!
King David knew, without any doubt that it was God who brought out and gave the children of Israel their inheritance, not that they got it by the skillfulness of their swords of by the strength of their arms and thus, he returned all the glory to God.
Where you are today is a product of God’s mercy and not the product of your skills nor the strength of your sword.
May the good Lord make you unstoppable and by His favour take you places where you never thought possible, in Jesus mighty name!
It is well with you!
