Pleasant Surprises

Ps.126:1-2 "When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the nations, The LORD has done great things for them." kjv2k

Point to ponder on: God specialises in doing the unexpected at an unprecedented time to bring about pleasant surprises.

A family who had enjoyed life in abundance was faced with a situation that made them endure the period of hardship after the head of the family lost his job. After a while, he got another job but it wasn't like what they had in the past. However, this period of management went on for nine years before they recovered from their downtime. They had to sell their things to feed and sustain themselves. But within this period, the entire family members were wholly devoted to God. They trekked long distance to attend Church weekly services and special programmes even at the time when they didn't know where the next meal would come from. Nevertheless, God was faithful as friends kept coming with gifts such as food items to support the family.

Suddenly, God opened doors for this family and different job opportunities started coming in with different offers. So the man had to make his choice and in the process when not satisfied with a particular job after working with them for a while another opportunity would come and he would have to move.

The season of dryness came to an end in a surprising manner. This family encountered the God of pleasant surprises. The doors were opened and were never shut until the man retired.

I don't know what situation has come to threaten your joy and liberty to live your life to the fullest. There is a God of pleasant surprises who can change things abruptly. He will move in a way that will surprise you and definitely beyond your expectations. It was like a dream to that family and so it will be for you in any area you are trusting God for help.
The Lord will give you total restoration, a blessing for all to see that can't be hidden, fill your mouth with laughter and songs of rejoicing and make people see God's goodness in your life and testify to it.

While you wait, give your best to God and be devoted to Him. Seasons come and go but God remains the same and with Him nothing is impossible. Trust Him for pleasant surprises.

Life is good only if you know how to live it.

Good morning. Enjoy His unlimited favour.

I celebrated you.
