The Hand of God

The Lord has marvelously blessed our family and He is still blessing, both spiritually and physically. He is indeed the God of blessing and He blesses for the Body of the Christ and His purpose to fulfill. Since the day I was born again, the hand of God has been directing all my steps; He is the God of small things as much as that of the big things too. His unseen Hands has led me thus far, and led me to the path He has chosen, step by step. Literally, its mysterious and inexplicable, yet wonderful and  marvelous!

Of late, as He has blessed us financially too, we were considering the best way to be a proper steward of His sovereign blessings, after all the offerings and needy saints' needs were taken care including our own family's need, we tried many options on investments but nothing really worked. Though we had some options, every time I was about to decide on some of these, something mysterious happened and it never went through. The matter got delayed and even further delayed with no proper reason, just only that neither I nor my wife, just did not have the peace. That was the hand of God.

My last visit to Chennai was intended just for official purpose, but in between I had fellowship with my first spiritual fruit who after a decade is now a real estate officer in a reputed company. As I inquired about his well being, he introduced me to what his company termed as a hot cake investment in newly developing area in NH4 Chennai-Bengalore highway. Though I tried to brush it off as less significant, I missed my train and had one more day extra. So I decided to check out on his proposal.

I had one half day with this brother and his colleague in the business to have the on-sight visit of the plot good for investment. On the way, I preached the gospel to his colleague and she received the Lord and prayed with me and surprisingly addressed me as "brother". Besides, we saw the land yet I did not make any decision as yet, for I wanted to pray more about it and fellowship with my wife, a deep lesson the Lord has taught me in marriage life. 

After reaching home, I took time out to go before the Lord and seek the Lord's leading concerning these plots of land for investment purpose. The more I prayed and considered, the more the Lord gave me immense peace and joy. Personally I was clear concerning this, and as I fellowshipped with my wife, she also felt very good and we in oneness and one accord prayed together for this investment. Then we decide to go ahead, and the Lord sovereignly arranged all things needed for the booking of these plots of land, basically three plots altogether. Never planned before, nor thought about it, but the hand of the Lord led us mysteriously through His anointing within and arranging the circumstances without. This is, indeed, the hand of God. 

And may this Hand of God lead me all the days of my life.
