Psalm 91:11-12 (ESV)
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in
all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike
your foot against a stone.
For years Sergis ran his small retail business from his
store in a local shopping center. Every week a visitor would drop by to collect
a percentage of his sales. The visitor wasn't his landlord; the mafia had taken
control of business in his small country.
Through the ministry of a marketplace Christian, Sergis
came to faith in Christ, and God began a deep work in his life. One day Sergis
decided he could no longer give God's money to the mafia.
A few days later his "friends" paid him a
visit. They kidnapped him, blindfolded him, and placed him in a jail cell
located in the middle of a mafia-controlled house. During the night Sergis sat
in the jail cell discouraged. Two locked doors with guards separated Sergis
from his freedom. Suddenly, in the middle of the night Sergis awoke to a voice:
"Sergis, get up. Follow me." Sergis awakened to a real, in-the-flesh,
angel of God sent to deliver him. The angel opened the doors while the guards
remained asleep. Sergis and the angel walked quietly past the guards to
freedom. Sergis immediately went to his Christian brothers to share the miracle
that had just taken place.
This true story is living proof that we serve a God who
still does miracles on behalf of His servants. Ask God for the miracle you need
today.
Dear Lord, thank You that You are a God of miracles. Help
us to remember that You are always there and all we have to do is call upon Your
name. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
