“For them that honour Me I will honour, and they that despise Me shall be lightly esteemed” (1 Samuel 2:30). THANK GOD! The Seminar on Saturday went on well and smoothly. The Lord has indeed done wondrous things for us. Thanks for praying. Dara’s lecturer and classmates were very happy with the entire event and were still talking about it on the next day when we met them. They kept telling us like what we said many times in the Seminar “Thank God.” Some wanted us to know for sure that they really meant what they said, so they added, “we said from our hearts.” PRAISE THE LORD!
THANK GOD for the Pastors and church leaders and brothers and sisters in Christ who came and who shared from the Bible and from their life experiences concerning the importance of the Word of God in their family life and in using it to teach their children. THANK GOD for all that He has done. Dara’s lecturer and classmates said that they have gained much and they truly enjoyed participating in such a Seminar. ALL GLORY TO GOD!
Though it was an University Seminar, thank God for giving us the strength and courage to conduct it from a Christian approach, opening with a message and prayer, singing Christian song together, reading from the Bible and talking about God and His Word and closing with prayer.
GOD IS ALWAYS SO GOOD! He has granted us good favour in the sight of her lecturer and non-Christian friends. This reminded us of Joseph in Genesis 39.
“And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. And his master saw that the LORD [was] with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand. And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all [that] he had he put into his hand” (Genesis 39:2-4).
“But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison. And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that [were] in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer [of it]. The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing [that was] under his hand; because the LORD was with him, and [that] which he did, the LORD made [it] to prosper” (Genesis 39:21-23).
When we Christians seek to put God first, God could also give us good favour in the eyes of the people around us. And not only that, God could always grant us good success in all that we do for His glory.
May we be challenged to continue to live for God everyday to the praise and glory of His Name!
