III"},"content":{"rendered":"Good day to you, dear readers of \u201eDaily Word for Spiritual Edification\u201d! May God bless you and keep you from all evil today!\n\nOver the past few days we have been talking about the idea that a person is the main initiator of the miracles he needs in his life. In order for God to do something supernatural in a person\u2019s life, that person must create the natural platform, or foundation, for the miracle. When you mix your distress with prayer, the miracle will surely happen, and you will have true and indisputable proof of God\u2019s miracle and His supernatural intervention.\n\nWe talked about the life of Hannah, who cried out to God in spite of her practically hopeless circumstances and kept expecting her miracle. People who saw Hannah thought she was drunk. But it was her despair mixed with prayer and trust in God.\n\n<strong>What was the result of Hannah\u2019s prayer?<\/strong>\n\nThe result, or the answer to Hannah\u2019s prayer, was not long in coming. A year later she was holding in her arms undeniable proof that God intervenes in human affairs.\n<h6>\u201eSo it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, \u201eBecause I have asked for him from the LORD.\u201d Now the man Elkanah and all his house went up to offer to the LORD the yearly sacrifice and his vow. But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, \u201eNot until the child is weaned; then I will take him, that he may appear before the LORD and remain there forever\u201d (1 Samuel, 1: 20-21).<\/h6>\nIn her prayer Hannah promised God that if He gave her a son, she would give him back to serve God.\n\nIf we are ready to give the Lord all the blessings He has given us, then the flow of miracles in our lives will never stop. If our hearts cling to God Himself and not to His blessings, then God will not be able to take His eyes off us.\n\nAfter Hannah weaned her son, she returned to Shiloh with the proof of God\u2019s faithfulness.\n<h6>\u201eNow when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bulls, one ephah of flour, and a skin of wine, and brought him to the house of the LORD in Shiloh. And the child was young. Then they slaughtered a bull, and brought the child to Eli. And she said, \u201eO my lord! As your soul lives, my lord, I am the woman who stood by you here, praying to the LORD. For this child I prayed, and the LORD has granted me my petition which I asked of Him\u201d (1 Samuel, 1: 24-27).<\/h6>\nWe looked at Hannah\u2019s situation and saw what she did, how she acted, and how God rewarded her trust and perseverance.\n\nIf you imitate her, then you too will be able to obtain your own solid and undeniable proof. Do not sit around waiting and wasting your time! Start initiating your miracle, and may your life be filled with God\u2019s miracles!\n\nMay God abundantly bless you!\n\nPastor Rufus Ajiboye","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"During the past few days we have been talking about the idea of a person being the main initiator of the miracles he needs in his life.
