Message
Madam Esther had some currencies that she kept in a safe place within her bedroom. After some weeks, she wanted to buy some things at the grocery shop. She needed to use the money she kept in a safe place, but she could not remember exactly where she kept the currencies. She searched through her room for some days without success. Suddenly she remembered that God answers prayers. So she prayed and asked God to direct her to where the money was. Not long after, she received a prompt in her mind and went straight to the second cabinet in her wardrobe, lo and behold, there the currencies laid. Madam Esther was very happy.
How would you feel if an important school book got missing or something valuable got lost? Saul did the right thing. First, he went to look for his father’s donkeys and then, when it was clear that they were nowhere to be found, he went to Samuel, a man of God. Saul realized that God could see exactly where his donkeys were and could lead him straight there. When something goes missing, you should pray to God. Trust God to lead you; and then thank Him for hearing your prayer.
