Luke 19:5 "And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house."
We discover from scriptures that being faster, stronger and wiser does not guarantee God's blessing. What guarantees the blessings of God upon one's life is to be at the right place at the right time. Being at the right place God wants you to be is what causes you to receive God's blessings. Zachaeus in today's text positioned himself well.
The truth is that, God, who holds time and chance in His Hands, has the power to put you and me at the right place at the right time if we are sensitive to His leading.
He did this for Ruth. Ruth trusted God for favour when she was looking for a field in which to glean. The Bible says: "she happened to come to the part of the field belonging to Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech" (Ruth 2:3). Of all the fields in Bethlehem, she happened to end up in Boaz’s field, and he was a close relative of Elimelech, her father-in-law.
This meant that Boaz was her potential kinsman redeemer, someone who could redeem her from her plight as a young, childless widow in a foreign land.
Boaz also happened to be a man of great wealth (Ruth 2:1), and as it turned out, he was willing to redeem Ruth (Ruth 4:9-10). All these right happenings are indications that God placed Ruth in the right place at the right time.
This week, I see God placing you at the right place at the right time, where you will meet the right people, do the right things that will result in explosion of blessing in your life, in Jesus name!
PRAYER: Your feet shall be ordered by the Lord this week, in Jesus name.
