*Today's scripture of devotion on Wednesday 6th of Sept 2023.*
*God Never Fails to Show Up!*
Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God. 1 Kings 18:38-39 KJV
When our faith is being challenged, questioned, and mocked by others, especially our unsaved loved ones, there can be pressure to start proving to them that we are walking according to the truth and that God is real in our lives. That was not the case for Elijah, as we can read in the opening scripture. When he called out to God to send fire from heaven, he was confident that God would show up and not shame him in front of all the people. And God did show Himself to all that He was the true Living God!
Beloved, don’t be pressured by people’s expectations, opinions, and mocking. Instead, continue to be faithful to the Lord and seek His help at all times. He will never fail to show His glory and power in your life for your loved ones and all the mockers to see! God always confirms His words and promises in glorious signs and wonders. It’s the truth (Hebrews 2:4, Mark 16:20)! Don’t worry about a thing and keep serving Him Who is faithful to show up! Be encouraged!
*Prayer point:* My powerful Father, the One and True Living God, You never failed to fulfill Your promises and Your Word upon my life. I don’t have to be moved by anything, for I know that You live and always prove Your existence by showing Your glory for all to see. Thank You for manifesting in my life so that the people will see how good You are to me and come to repentance in Jesus’ name!
Shalom
