Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob,
whose hope is in the Lord their God.
He is the Maker of heaven and earth,
the sea, and everything in them—
he remains faithful forever.
He upholds the cause of the oppressed
and gives food to the hungry.
The Lord sets prisoners free,
the Lord gives sight to the blind,
the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down,
the Lord loves the righteous.
The Lord watches over the foreigner
and sustains the fatherless and the widow,
but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.
Psalm 146:5-9
Whenever I see an undeniable evidence of God's presence in my life today I never cease to be amazed and humbled. Satan screams, "It's not God, it's just a co-incidence!" Then logic and reason step up to the plate and demand that I explain how the Creator of everything could truly care for a simple and insignificant human being. The answer to that is this: As a personal creation of God Almighty I am neither simple nor insignificant. I was created in the image of God Himself and since the first man Adam was formed from the dust no one else exactly like me was made by the Hand of God!
So what does God do during a normal day? God upholds the cause of the oppressed, gives food to the hungry, sets prisoners free, gives sight to the blind, lifts those who are bowed, loves the righteous, and sustains the fatherless and widows.
After that God still has time to frustrate the ways of the wicked.
Here is a simple way to see God working. Find an orphan and bring him or her into your home. Everything you do for that child will be clearly because you have become a channel of blessing from the Hand of God!
