Today's Word from Joel and Victoria

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

There’s a lady in our church who is a single mom. Her family has gone through a lot of struggles. For years, she was barely making it, but every Sunday she and her two sons would be at Lakewood. She stayed faithful during her “wilderness” season because she knew she was headed to her Promised Land.

Her son, from the time he was a little boy, always said that he was going to get a scholarship to go to college. Now, he could have thought, “We’re poor. I’m at a disadvantage.” No, this single mother taught her sons that God is a God of abundance, that He can make a way when we don’t see a way. Three years ago, her son graduated number two in his high school. He received not one scholarship, not two, not five, but nine scholarships totaling over $1.3 million dollars. His undergraduate, his masters and his doctorate are all paid for at Georgetown University.

Friend, remember, God is no respecter of persons. Whatever you are believing for, whatever provision you need in the wilderness, know that He is faithful. He will provide streams in the desert and provision for you in every area of your life!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, thank You for providing streams in the desert. Thank You for refreshing me in the wilderness. Thank You for providing all my needs according to Your riches in glory as I stand in faith and stay faithful to You in Jesus’ name. Amen.
