The Lord "Caused"

Scripture:

Exodus 12:36

The Lord “caused” the Egyptians to look favourably on the Israelites, and they gave the Israelites what they asked for. So, like a victorious army, they plundered the Egyptians.

 

Observation:

It’s just so amazing how God can just make things happen, He can “cause” favour, He can soften a heart, He can harden a heart.  The Lord can “cause” anything to happen.  He can turn anything around He has the power to set up a circumstance that is totally unexpected where there seems to be no way out and no humanly way of help. 

 

Application:

I need to have the courage to pray the insane prayers, the prayers that man says “No way” to.  God can “Cause” the mightiest mountain to fall and the biggest hole to fill.  God can “Cause” Favour, he can turn around what has been lost.  I need to believe and have audacious prayers that take people by surprise because God “Caused” a miracle to happen.   I need to pray for the bigger things that only God can do.

 

Prayer:

Father let me have prayers that “Cause” miracles.  Help me always remember to come to You believing that you are able to take care of the finest detail “Causing” favour in my life, “causing” the unexpected, “causing” the biggest hurdles in my life seem so small.  Father I thank You for the moments where you have “Caused” blessings & miracles in my life…

Amen
