TOPIC: WHEN THE CART SHAKES!
Welcome to another devotional hour! REMEMBER AGAIN that years ago, a beloved Christian sister lost her only two lovely children to armed robbers! They were killed when the robbers mistook their car for the entourage of the daughter of the former president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo! At that time, their mother Dr. (Mrs) Bisola Sodipo Akindeko (now Dr. Abisola SodipoClark), said rather than question God, she had decided to accept His utmost authority in her life! She said, “I have come to know that God’s thoughts towards me are for good and that the end expected, would be even better. I had them a bit late in my reproductive life, but I have to realize that I am not in charge. There is someone bigger and greater than I. The ultimate Creator is in charge. I submit to whatever He allows.” Can you beat that? In one day, she lost her only two boys and yet she is saying God is in control! Dear child of God, you must note that vs. 6 of today’s scripture says the oxen shook the cart and Ark of the Lord! Note that sometimes in your life and ministry, your Ark may shake! It does not matter how faithful you are to God! There are seasons when the Ark and the cart carrying the Ark will shake! There is a season when everyone goes through trials! Please when the Ark shakes, don’t rush to use your brain to stabilize it! Wait on the Lord! Don’t run around people! Wait on the Lord! God will not allow the Ark in you (your salvation) to be disgraced! He knows what you are going through and He will make a w ay of escape! The blessed sister used in this write-up refused to question God! Uzzah in today’s scripture wanted to help God and he ended up in the mortuary! Please wait on God even when you are too old to cry, but it hurts too much to laugh! There is an exit out of every problem! Find it prayerfully! Rev. Norman Vincent Peale said, “Every problem has in it the seeds of its own solution. If you don’t have any problems, you don’t get any seeds.” Please be still! When your Ark shakes, wait on God!
