Day 65 Judges 15:18 And he was sore athirst, and called on the LORD, and said, “Thou hast given this great deliverance into the hand of thy servant: and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?” 19 But God clave a hollow place that was in the jaw, and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: wherefore he called the name thereof Enhakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day. 20 And he judged Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years. Sometimes we feel life is against us and complain about our situation. Sampson was a judge in Israel when the Philistines ruled over them. He was a man of great strength who fought against them single-handedly and delivered Judah from their hand. Yet, with the battle won, Sampson grew thirsty and complained to God about his thirst, and God provided water in the jawbone he used to kill the Philistines. As Christians, you might not know where your provision will come from. Life seems hopeless, even in the middle of your victories. Yet God still provides everything you need. You only need to ask. Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (KJV) Do you see trouble instead of triumph? Has Satan blinded you to the victory you achieved? Don’t let despair cloud your mind when God triumphs over your enemies. Give God praise and He will dispel the darkness and bring His light and provision into your situation. Let’s pray: Father, thank you for providing everything I need when the way seems dark and gloomy. Let Your light shine in my life as I see Your provision and give you thanks. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen. Copyright © 17 August 2021 by Valerie Routhieaux Image courtesy of Pixabay.
