Freedom Mentor YouTube Channel is the most popular real estate investing channel in the world, with more than 24 million views. It is run by Phil Pustejovsky, whose grass to grace story is a testimony of God’s amazing help.
After graduating from college, Phil had big dreams for his future. But things didn’t turn out as he had planned. Before long, he found himself completely broke, unable to pay his bills and was eventually forced to move into his truck. Homeless and penniless, things turned for worse as Phil became a drunkard and constantly got into trouble with the police.
One day, he hit absolute rock bottom, stuck in his truck at a gas station with no gas, no money, and very little hope. It was then that Phil turned to God and cried out for help. He promised that if God helped him to prosper, he would serve Him wholeheartedly.
This became the turning point for Phil. As he began to serve God, miraculously, he got connected to a Christian man who mentored him into becoming a very successful real estate investor.
God so transformed Phil’s life that today he is a bestselling author and national speaker. His company is considered the most results-producing real estate mentoring organization in history.
To be connected to God is to be connected to divine help. Especially in these perilous times, the help of God is critical to enable us continually prevail over the worsening conditions in the world. It doesn’t matter how tough things may get; through divine help, we will be above only and never beneath.
Certainly, God is our ever-present help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1).
Divine help was the secret of Israel’s victories in tough battles. In 1 Samuel 7, after Israel consecrated themselves to sincerely obey God, He helped them to defeat their strong enemies, the Philistines.
What is particularly significant about this victory is that God Himself won the battle by delivering Israel in a stunningly supernatural way. Specifically, the text says that God “thundered with a loud thunder upon the Philistines that day and so confused them that they were overcome before Israel (1 Samuel 7:10).”
After the victory, in acknowledging God’s help, Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, “Thus far has the Lord helped us.”
Ebenezer is a Hebrew word that means “Stone of Help.”
Truly, we have come thus far only because the Lord has helped us. Today, as we sincerely commit to deepening our walk with Him, and obey His Word,, we will yet see His greater help. By the enabling grace of the Spirit, we will scale enviable heights and break forth to greater dimensions in all our endeavors.
PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the grace to walk in faith and obedience so that I can experience Your amazing help that will usher me to my next level and grant me speedy accomplishments in Jesus Name.
