READ: JOB
19:6-17
Many people
have their lives in order except for one area. If you are in good health,
progressing academically, financially and spiritually, but you have been
trusting God for a child, or you have only girls, so you are trusting God for a
boy, all you need is a breakthrough in that area. The God of breakthrough will
visit you and give you a song. But there are some people who are hedged in on
all sides. Virtually every area of their lives is under siege: no money, no
job, frequent sickness and reproach by neighbours. Such people need a
breakthrough in every area.
Job was one such person. He lost his wealth in one day. His business empire suddenly collapsed and he became jobless. All his children died at once. He lost his health and grievous boils covered his whole body. He began to stink before his wife, so she could no longer render him due benevolence. And she could say, after thinking about all his misfortune, “was curse God and die”. This means his problems made her backslide.
Imagine a man who was the richest and greatest man in the world, and held in high esteem, becoming so poor that all his relatives and friends deserted him. Even his paid servants lorded over him. He could not do anything for himself. To get his servants to do something for him, he had to prostate himself and beg. Everyone began to speak against him, including young children. But one day, the god of breakthrough visited job and turned around his captivity.
“You, who have shown me great and severe troubles, shall revive me again, and bring me up again from the depths of the earth. You shall increase my greatness, and comfort me on every side.” (Psalm 71:20-21). Are you going through a trial of faith in different areas of your life simultaneously? If Job could break through, you will, too. Hold on to God. The trial is only temporary. It has its limits. The God of breakthrough will give you all-round breakthrough and comfort you on every side.
