“He raises up the poor from the dust, He lifts up the needy from the ash heap To make them sit with nobles, And inherit a seat of honor and glory; For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, And He set the land on them.” 1 Samuel 2:8 AMP
God is not a wicked One to put the things you need very far from you, it is mostly around but your eyes are not opened to see them.
Men need men, it is men that lift men, it is men that recommend men for greatness, without the gift of men, without favour from men, you will work extremely hard, you will spend so much resources, you will spend so much time for some things to happen in your life.
I was doing my clearance in LASU after graduating and one of the processes was for me to present all my receipts from year one to year five. I was not bothered because I thought it would be an easy stage, but my receipt for year three went missing.
Again, I was not bothered because I knew I would just go to campus, and print it out. Well, not so, after going to several shops, I was told that they could not access it anymore because the database had been updated.
Without this receipt, I could not proceed with my clearance and it means no certificate. I was directed to the school’s ICT, which is one of the places you would pray not to have any issues or need them, but I still went and I was told to send an email. But then, in this our kind of system, I knew that would not solve my problem.
I spoke with one of our ministers who works at LASU, and he gave me a contact and said “If the man can not solve it, just forget it, no one else can solve it in LASU ICT”. Long story short, after like a month, he got it done for me and did not collect a dime. I knew how frustrating it would have been, being transferred from one office to the other, the time, and money I would have spent, but just with a text and I got the receipt.
You need discernment to know the people that God has placed in your life to lift you, for some it might just be their next-door neighbour whom they have been too proud to greet well, be humble sir. Many have been speaking with the wrong person while asking for help, pray that your eyes be opened to see and your mind be opened to KNOW.
You need discernment to know the right timing, if I had spoken to the minister at the wrong moment, all he might just said would have been “ah sorry” and the struggle would continue again. Certain things will not happen in your life until certain people enter your life.
PRAYER
Say; Father, my eyes are opened to see the people you have sent to help me in Jesus name. The eyes of the people you have sent to me are opened to see me and help me in Jesus name. Amen
