Malachi 3:10 – 11, ““Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the LORD of hosts, “ If I will not open for you the windows of heaven; And pour out for you such blessing, That there will not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,” Says the LORD of hosts;”
I was feeling a little depressed recently. My wife came to visit me from Philippines with my son. Initially, they intended to stay for 3 weeks. However my wife contracted some skin infection and so she decided to return home so that someone could help to look after my son better since I was working. They were only here for 2 weeks as a result. I was sad. I could also feel myself getting lethargic with the things of God due to my low morale. My time spent with God through prayers and bible reading was not as fervent as I had been previously. As a result the anointing from God on my spirit was gradually leaking from all these “holes”. I was spiritually very dry.
In addition, due to my one week holiday in Philippines with my family earlier. I was not able to work more to hit my sales target of S$3,200 for the month. I only closed S$980 of sales. I am a gym instructor and I need to recruit people to take up personal training courses with me. I tried my humanly best for the past few days to recruit as many customers as possible but it was getting now where. My morale was extremely low. The worst part was I was the top sales person in my company throughout the whole of Singapore previously and this added more pressure on me.
It was during one of my Sunday service, I was worshipping God with hands lifted up as usual during the worship. I came to church with a heavy heart. However I decided to surrender myself to God. As the worship continues, Pastor Amos had a word of knowledge and he told the congregation that God is speaking to someone and comforting the person. God wants to tell him that everything is under his control. The moment I heard this, I knew God was speaking to me through Pastor Amos. I could not control myself as tears rolled down continuously my cheeks. I could also feel a very strong warm sensation arising within me. I knew this was the touch of God. There was a deep sense of supernatural peace in my heart. I felt assured in my heart that everything would be alright.
An amazing thing took place. Within 2 days before my company financial month closes, my sales shot up from S$980 to S$12,000!!! My manager was thrilled by this amazing result. This was unbelievable. Everyone was not able to comprehend how this could happen. Everyone was resigned to close the sales poorly for the month.
To me, this was the supernatural outpouring of God’s blessing. I have been obedient in tithing and God honors His word! He protects and prospers me. Looking back, I should not limit what God could do based on my limited thinking. Praise God. Thank you Jesus! This is indeed one supernatural intervention of God in my work experience.
