Nora Lam founded the World Children’s Fund. From a rough beginning in life, she was lifted to global prominence by God ‘s grace.
Nora was abandoned at birth in 1941, but six months later she was adopted by a wealthy couple who gave her the best of education. In her teenage years she became a Christian after being enrolled in a prestigious boarding school run by Presbyterian missionaries. At this time in the 1950’s, a Cultural Revolution started which required everyone in China to come under the working class. Upper-class families were severely attacked including Nora’s wealthy parents. Their home was seized and her father was arrested. Nora herself would later be arrested for being a Christian. When she refused to denounce Christ, her captors commanded her to be executed. Nora was blindfolded and pushed into a courtyard in the night before a firing squad. But as she cried to God, suddenly a strange wind started to blow, and a storm began. On the official’s command, “Fire!” guns exploded but no bullet touched Nora! A lightning bolt from heaven struck the courtyard, frightening the soldiers who made no further attempt to kill her. She was later released from prison and traveled to America at the invitation of the famous healing evangelist Kathryn Kuhlman. Kathryn gave Nora a platform to share her amazing testimony which was later recorded in her autobiography, ‘China Cry.’
As a believer in Christ, when you’re in a situation that seems impossible, you’re in a perfect position for God’s glory to manifest through you. When the 3 Hebrew boys faced the fiery furnace, it looked as if it was over, yet God showed up right there in the midst of the fire and brought deliverance to them.
Conditions that seem too late to men, is never too late for God. Sometimes God delays so that greater glory can be revealed. In John 11, it seemed as if Lazarus’ case was hopeless, yet Jesus showed up and did a resurrection miracle that brought great glory to God.
When you’re in a difficult situation, very often this is for greater glory to be revealed in you.
2 Corinthians 4:17 says ‘For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory’
No matter what circumstances you may face, keep your faith strong. If God allows you to face a Goliath, it’s because He has put a David in you.
And that very battle that seems greater than you, will end up enthroning you. The difficulties many of us passed through last year were only preparation for something greater this year. Those past sufferings will not compare with the glory which shall soon be revealed in us.(Romans 8:18).
This year, let us hold tenaciously to God’s Word, and in every situation, keep thanking Him, because great glory is coming our way and soon our lives will become an amazing testimony of God’s miracle working power.
PRAYER: Lord, please help me to focus on Your Word and remain strong in faith, because i know You are committed to my change of story this year. Thank You for Your greater Glory that is being revealed through me, in Jesus Name.
