“ACKNOWLEDGE HIM!”

Proverbs 3:5-6                            (ESV)
“5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. 
6 In all your ways “ACKNOWLEDGE HIM”, and HE will make straight your paths.”


Although I have heard this recollection of GOD’s Provision many times before, this morning it SPEAKS to me unlike other times.


“””George Müller (1805-1898) was a Christian missionary evangelist and a coordinator of orphanages in Bristol, England. Through his faith and prayers (and without asking for money) he had the privilege of caring for over 120,000 orphan children. He also traveled over 200,000 miles (by ship) to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ in 42 countries and to challenge believers about world missions and trusting God. In his journals, Müller recorded miracle-after-miracle of God’s provision and answered prayer:

One morning, all the plates and cups and bowls on the table were empty. There was no food in the larder and no money to buy food. The children were standing, waiting for their morning meal, when Müller said, “Children, you know we must be in time for school.” Then lifting up his hands he prayed, “Dear Father, we thank Thee for what Thou art going to give us to eat.”
There was a knock at the door. The baker stood there, and said, “Mr. Müller, I couldn’t sleep last night. Somehow I felt you didn’t have bread for breakfast, and the Lord wanted me to send you some. So I got up at 2 a.m. and baked some fresh bread, and have brought it.”

Mr. Müller thanked the baker, and no sooner had he left, when there was a second knock at the door. It was the milkman. He announced that his milk cart had broken down right in front of the orphanage, and he would like to give the children his cans of fresh milk so he could empty his wagon and repair it.”””

Sometimes we don’t SEE the HAND of GOD simply because we won’t take the time to acknowledge that it is DIVINE INTERVENTION supplying our needs!  Sometimes others SEE that HE is working on our behalf because they are looking for HIM IN ALL THEIR WAYS!  Where are you in your walk?  Can you SEE HIM working for you?  Or are you so busy being busy that you fail to “ACKNOWLEDGE HIM”???
