Text: 1 Chronicles 4:9-10
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
The All-Knowing God is the One who was, who is and is to come. Therefore, he knows the details of your past, present and future.
The Psalmist asked a fundamental question, “If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” Psalm 11:3. If your foundation is faulty, don’t worry, just cry to the All-Knowing God. He knows what went wrong with you and he will visit your distant or immediate past to correct any faulty foundation there.
In today’s text we come across the popular story of a man named Jabez, who was the most respected member of his family. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request. 1 Chronicles 4:9-10
Abram And Sarai were barren for several decades. They were trusting God for the fruit of the womb but they did not know what to do to break the yoke of barrenness. But the All-knowing God knew. All God had to do was to change Abram (Exalted Father)’s name to Abraham (Father of Nations); Sarai (my princess) was changed to Sarah (Princess-Mother of Nations). God also brought Abraham and his family into a covenant of circumcision – Genesis 17:1-22. Thus, barrenness was terminated in his family.
Is your foundation destroyed or are you experiencing an impossible situation? Cry to the All-Knowing God and he will sort you out this season in Jesus name.
Prayer Nugget: Father, please, visit my foundation and repair any fault there in Jesus name.
