“You can recover all…”

We go through so many trials in our life. Sometimes, it feels as though Satan does nothing but steal, kill, and destroy any small thing that he can. Bobby and I have been through so many things when starting out in the ministry. It seemed sometimes that just when we were blessed, Satan stole it!

David, in the Bible, went through many things like this also. In 1st Samuel 30, there is a story about David and his loss. While David and his men were in battle, the Amalakites had come to his hometown, Ziklag, and burned it to the ground. Even worse, they took all of David’s wives and children, and all the wives and children of his small army. It was such a trial that his army “lifted up their voices and wept, loud!” Then, all of the people of the city spake of stoning David, for they blamed him. I can see David with his face on the ground, asking the Lord, “Shall I go into battle after them?” The Lord answered David, “Thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail, recover all.” David and his men went into battle, and the Bible says, “David recovered all.”

You may be experiencing the loss of something… a home, a job, whatever. Our son and his wife just lost their house to a fire. A loss is devastating. But it doesn’t have to end there… God will restore what the devil has taken, and “you can recover all!” You can and you will get through this! God is on your side!!! Have a great day and keep looking “up!” God has never failed you, and He never will!
