You are undergoing some tribulation? Believe that Jesus open door where there is no one:

• Rev 3:7 -> “And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: ‘The words of the holy one, the true one, who has the key of David, who opens and no one will shut, who shuts and no one opens.”.

We can see this in the life of Joseph, Esther, Daniel.

Who could imagine that Joseph, a man sold by their brothers as slave to Midianite traders (Gen 37:28), become governor of one empire? And the interesting is that their brothers sold him to Egypt in order to hinder the fulfillment of the two dreams of the Creator for him (Gen 37:19,20).

And what about Esther? She, as the other Israelites, was slave in the Persian empire. Who could imagine that she could become queen? Nonetheless:

• Pro 21:1 -> “The king's heart is a stream of water in the hand of the LORD; he turns it wherever he will.”.

The Creator allowed the king to make a feast so that he could get drunkard and, thus, be induced to summon Vashti to appear before him and his guests. The Creator knew that Vashti will take down the king’s request and, thus, would be opened a space for Esther in the court of Ahasuerus.

Daniel, also, was taken to Babylon as slave and became an outstanding minister by the power of the Creator.

Therefore, as it is said below:

• 1Sa 2:7,8 -> “The LORD makes poor and makes rich; he brings low and he exalts. He raises up the poor from the dust; he lifts the needy from the ash heap to make them sit with princes and inherit a seat of honor. For the pillars of the earth are the LORD's, and on them he has set the world.”.
• Eze 17:24 -> “And all the trees of the field shall know that I am the LORD; I bring low the high tree, and make high the low tree, dry up the green tree, and make the dry tree flourish. I am the LORD; I have spoken, and I will do it.” “.

Our God is a God who transforms reality. He:

• make rivers spring from the desert (Isa 43:19,20);
• make light shines where there is darkness (2Cor 4:6);
• make the barren woman inhabit in family (Isa 54:1-3; Ps 68:6), etc.

We need to stop of seeking solution only in the things of this world. Jesus can do something outright new only to supply us and make us into an instrument of supply for those around us.

So, have a good day seeking and waiting, in Jesus, His provision for you.
