Psalm 3: 3 ‘But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head..’

DAILY READING ; Luke 8:1-25; Genesis 12; Psalm 6

In 1941, when segregation still existed in America, there was a 22 years old black man named Doris Miller who served in the American Navy.
Miller’s skin color usually relegated him to the role of cook and laundry attendant. Aboard the ship ‘USS West Virginia’, he worked as a cleaner and shined officers’ shoes.
However on 7th December 1941, the story suddenly changed for Miller.
That was the day of the famous Pearl Harbor surprise attack, when Japanese warplanes suddenly swooped down on American ships.
The early morning attack caught many of the Navy officers off guard, but Miller was among the first to quickly respond. He had woken up at 6 a.m. to collect laundry when the attack began and he immediately swung into action, helping to move the injured. Despite having no weapons training, he manned one of the machine guns and began blasting away at the Japanese fighters.

His brave actions that day, made Miller to be hailed and celebrated as a war hero. He became the first black man to be presented the Navy Cross.

And recently in 2020, the American Navy announced that a supercarrier will be named after Doris Miller and it will be called the ‘USS Doris Miller’.
Usually, most supercarriers are named for U.S. presidents — e.g the USS John F. Kennedy. USS Ronald Reagan. USS Abraham Lincoln. Henry Kissinger etc.
Doris Miller became the first African American to have a supercarrier named after him.

Indeed from an unknown cook and laundry man, today, Doris miller’s name has been included among those of presidents.

Your change of story can be just as dramatic. Indeed God can suddenly turn the tables and give you what you did not qualify for.
God can shift you from a zero to a hero, from the back to the front. God can put you in positions you didn’t earn and didn’t even solicit for.
In Genesis 48, when Jacob was about to bless Joseph’s sons, he suddenly crossed his hands and put the right hand on the last and put his left hand on the first son. This sudden prophetic shift elevated Ephraim who was the last born to receive the blessings of the first born, which he did not qualify for.
That is the way our God can suddenly cause things to shift in our favor.
As long as we walk in obedience to His Word and follow His will, our supernatural turnaround is sure.

When your focus is to honor God, He can suddenly put you in positions you could have never gotten on your own.
Doors will open that had never opened before for you. What should have taken you many years to accomplish will be achieved with divine speed.

Indeed we should never limit what God can do in our lives. .
Especially, as we draw close to the end of this year, it is our season to expect a positive turnaround because God crowns the year with His goodness. Though you may have toiled in the past months, your story is about to change.
In these remaining months, signs and wonders will chase you down and overtake you. Things are about to change supernaturally in your favor.

Therefore let us remain heavily expectant because something good is about to happen.
Certainly, God will exceed our expectations and do in our lives what no man can do.

PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for giving me a positive change of story and turning every disappointing situation into a blessing for me. I know that even right now, You are causing all things to work together for my good in Jesus Name.
