Your beginnings will seem humble, so
prosperous will your future be - Job 8:7.
Abraham left his country and people by
obeying God and started a new life with humble beginnings in the land God showed
him. God blessed him and multiplied him. He became the father of many nations
as the Lord had promised him. And I will make you a great nation, And I will
bless you, And make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing - Genesis 12:2,3.
A little one shall become a thousand, And a small one a strong nation. I, the
Lord, will hasten it in its time – Isaiah 6:22.
David who was a shepherd had
very humble beginnings in his life. But God called him to serve as king. The
Lord blessed the latter part of Job’s life more than the former part. Joseph
and Moses who had very humble beginnings in their life became great leaders. Ruth’s
life did not go in the way she intended in the beginning but later God blessed her life
abundantly. He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash
heap; he seats them with princes and has them inherit a throne of honor - 1 Samuel
2:8.
God will fill our life with joy and gladness
by making our life of wilderness like Eden and desert like the garden of the
land. For the Lord will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places; He
will make her wilderness like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the Lord;
Joy and gladness will be found in it - Isaiah 51:3. Though our life beginnings may
seem humble, God will make our future prosperous. Therefore, humble yourselves
under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time - 1 Peter 5:6.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are the God of
blessings. We thank for Your goodness and blessings in our life. In Jesus name
we pray. Amen.
