Ray Jenkins built a $24 million snack empire through faith and hardwork.
Raised in poverty in Detroit, he dropped out of school after eighth grade and worked in an iron foundry before joining the Navy as a cook. Upon returning home, Ray started selling chips out of his car.
He later bought an old potato chip factory. He relied on his own efforts to see the business succeed and put all his time and energy into it. But the harder he worked, the worse things got financially until the business eventually went bankrupt.. As his business crumbled, Ray turned to alcohol, drowning his stress in nightly drinking. One evening, he collapsed at home, vomiting blood. The Paramedics who rushed him to hospital warned his wife that he would not survive, but she prayed and God intervened.
During his near-death experience, Ray believed he was going to hell. When he miraculously survived he resolved to receive salvation and serve God. His new life of faith transformed his business. It flourished, making its first profit of $85,000 that year. Today, his company, Uncle Ray’s Potato Chips, rakes in millions of dollars annually. Each bag of chips features Ray’s testimony and a Scripture verse, in honor of God who saved his soul and gave him purpose.
It is the hand of God that elevates a man, not just his hard work. Our own plans, our own ways apart from God will crumble, but when we put God first, things will work out and whatever we are building will stand. Truly except The Lord builds the house every man’s labour is in vain.
It is the blessing of the Lord, not ‘the sweat or struggles of man’ that makes rich. When we commit ourselves to diligently seeking God and serving the interests of His Kingdom, then He commits Himself to opening up Heaven’s treasure to us. These includes prosperity, divine health, longevity, preservation etc
To experience invasion of glory in our endeavors we need God to take us further than our own strength or smartness. We can never see shame as long as we stay connected to His divine help. He is our source of light and glory.
No matter the conditions surrounding you today, be assured that divine help will bail you out. As you keep standing in faith and keep giving all the glory to God, a change is coming your way. Soon every wall of Jericho resisting your forward movement will come tumbling down and you will march into your Promised Land. God’s grace will take you from trials to triumphs and from those tough tests to amazing testimonies of glory.
PRAYER: Lord, I choose to bless You at all times, knowing that indeed You are at work in my life even right now.
I thank You for giving me a miraculous turnaround and causing me to experience a ‘fearful’ fulfillment of Your prophetic agenda for my life this year in Jesus Name.
