TODAY'S FOOD FOR THE SOUL Psalm 37: 1-40
TODAY'S RHEMA Psalm 37:5 "Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this;"
George Muller (1805-1898) was a Christian missionary and the head of orphanage in Bristol, England. Muller and his wife ran an orphanage in 1836, using their own home as the place in Bristol. Muller decided to never make a request for financial supports nor go in debt from anybody, even though it cost £ 100,000 to build five homes for 2000 orphans. Many times, he received unsolicited food donations only hours before he needed to feed the orphans. He said that he had received 50,000 answers of specific prayers. Through his prayers only to God, more than 3,000 orphans had won over for Christ because of his servings and Holy Spirit's guidance.
The whole reliance on the works of God had made George Muller experience miraculous and amazing things. When we wholly rely our life on Lord God who loves and reigns in our life, we will also experience miraculous things beyond our own ability.
We may face a terrible problem, such as sickness, debt, family matters or any others problems. Do not rely on our wealth, family, or status when we overcome our problems. We may keep trying and doing our best we can, but we have to rely on God wholly. When we lift up our hands to God, God will reach down his hands on us to show His works, so that we can experience miraculous and great things in our life. Let us fully depend on God. Lord Jesus bless you.
