Sew Up Your Pockets Today…
Good morning beautiful people, good morning. Recently, I was on one of my wild Jesus adventures. I knew no one on this trip, but felt God leading me through an open door. Despite what you may think, I am usually a pretty quiet individual and stepping out into the unknown sometimes is a bit challenging for me, especially all alone. I am doing a whole lot better at it as God himself leads me step by step, because I ask him to every day. Otherwise, I would be in big, big trouble.
A new friend I met on this adventure had needed some funds from her ATM. Ironically, her name was Angel too. She was a bit distressed that the machine charged her five dollars for the transaction. She was a bit mad and spouting off a bit. I said let’s pray, my famous words right? I am sure I heard this prayer somewhere in my life, but I don’t remember where. I just prayed a simple prayer something like this; Father, sew up her pockets, let her not lose anymore money like that. We ask you to return it to her. She’s your daughter and she needs her five dollars. Thank you for meeting her every need according to your riches in glory (Phillipians 4:19) Amen.
As we turned the corner and started down the next block, there lay five dollars right in the middle of the sidewalk. I laughed as she picked it up. God is so good. As we were leaving a dinner meeting the next evening, another new friend passed her a card and it had several five dollar bills in it many, many times over. Isn’t God great? Let’s sew up some more pockets today, let’s pray:
Father, thank you for your Word. You tell us you meet every need we have. Thank you that we don’t lose anything. We ask you to return to us ever dollar, every transaction that was taken from us. We sew up our pockets today and declare no more losses.
Father, thank you for returning to us. You give to us in so many different ways. Father, we thank you that you are no respecter of persons (Romans 2:11) as you love us all the same. That love was enough for you to die for and us to gain life here on earth (John 10:10) and eternal life. Thank you for journeying life with us, your goodness is downright amazing. Our pockets are sewn up and we are blessed according to your Word. Amen
Have a blessed day God’s beautiful people. Shout my pockets are sown up, no more losses. Bless someone today!
I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread. Psalm 37:25
