Memorise: "He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;" (Rom 4:20)
Read: 1 Kings 17:8-16
When you make the Prince of Peace your ally, you have lots of things to benefit from. Today's reading tells us of a widow with a son and all they had was a meal. Her situation was beyond hopeless. But when she made the God of Elijah her ally, things took a dramatic turn. She moved from abject poverty into superfluous provision. The food that was just enough for one meal refused to finish; it lasted throughout the period of famine! Do you know such things still occur to those who have the Lord as their ally? When my father in the Lord started the RCCG, things were very tough. He will be praying at home while his wife sell empty bottles in the market before they could eat. On several occasions, when she was unable to sell any bottle there would be no food at home. One day, the Lord said to my father in the Lord, "Tell your wife to be dishing from that pot of soup without looking inside". Mama began to dish out from the pot and out came assorted meats, fish, chicken. This continued for one week, two weeks, and after about one month, mama in her curiosity decided to peep into the pot to see the secret of such endless bountiful provision and the soup dried up. There is a user of this Devotional who will enter into a season of limitless supernatural provision this season. When it comes, abide by divine instructions and give God the glory.
The Prince of Peace has not ceased to perform wonders materially. As long as He is on the throne, He who brought out water from the rock will ensure that from today you will not suffer lack. In addition, He can perform wonders maritally. Don't think you are too old to have a baby. If you doubt it, ask Abraham and Sarah. Their bodies had retired but when the Prince of Peace stepped in, their aging bodies were rejuvenated to fulfil God's promise. When your time comes, with God as your ally, nothing can stop your joy. Like Abraham, do not consider the deadness or negative physical evidence available (Rom 4:17-21). It will change. God's Word is forever settled. Physical things have no choice but to respond to the voice of the Wonder. Do you have Him as your ally? Then be fully persuaded that what He has done for others, He can and will do for you.
When you have the Unchanging God as your ally, every unpleasant situation in your life will change.
