RHIM Daily Devotional 8 May 2020 – Confronting Your Adversity [V]

5. And it was so, that when the children of Ammon made war against Israel, the elders of Gilead went to fetch Jephthah out of the land of Tob.

6. And they said unto Jephthah, Come, and be our captain, that we may fight with the children of Ammon.

7. And Jephthah said unto the elders of Gilead, Did not ye hate me, and expel me out of my father’s house? and why are ye come unto me now when ye are in distress?

BELOVED HEAR THIS

Adversity is a discovery for Giants. In adversity, new giants will be raised, new champions will be raised, new captains of industries will also be raised. It is a discovery of men. God often at times use it to DISTINGUISH men from boys or to distinguish real men from ordinary men. Through adversity, Deborah was discovered, where other men were afraid to take the lead in the battle front, Deborah led Israel in battle.

From our Bible reference for today, Jephthah was also discovered through adversity, when men abused him, called him vagabond and even dumped him, they saw him as a nonentity or as an insignificant fellow, but when it was time for them to fight the children of Ammon, they began to look for Japhthah as the only man that can confront the Ammonites.

The children of Israel saw the giant and the champion in Japhthah when they were faced with adverse situation. The same person that was considered insignificant and not existing was called upon to be their captain.

• Know this, that even in Disability, there is Ability – #QuoteMeRight • Initially, the children of Israel saw disability in Japhthah, even with the disability they saw in him, God still packed an ability inside him and when they discovered his ability they decided to take advantage of his ability for them to come out of their adversity.

#QuoteMeRight “The chances and the risks you refused to take today might be too late for you to take tomorrow.”
