We Serve a Well-Able God

This does not mean you just sit there and do nothing. In fact, your role is to pray in faith for the appointed time and receive in your spirit what God has already ordained for you.

My immigration to Canada is a clear example of this. Only about 10% of it required my effort. God used my sisters to handle the entire process. We started in 2021, and we arrived in 2023. It took two years of faith, and most of what I did was sign documents and take pictures. The real work was done by my sisters. Did God show me in a vision that I would move? Yes. Did He show me how it would happen? No—because my intervention was not primary.

There are circumstances where your intervention will be necessary. God has put people on my heart to pray for, sent me to visit someone, prompted me to help a homeless man on the street, or to visit a particular priest. Those were tasks He asked me to do, and I did them in faith.

But other things—big things—things that require deep faith, things I had tried and failed at, things my human mind wanted to control—God did not give me instructions to act on. He asked me to wait, because He had already shown me the end.

When God shows you the end of a situation—whether it’s a scholarship, a house, marriage, a job, or a financial opportunity—that is His promise to you that He will do it. He may not use you directly in the process, because there are other things He wants to focus on in you. You must understand this and trust Him, because all things truly do work together for your good.

One biblical character who truly modeled waiting and faith is David. He was anointed king while Saul was still in power. He even lived in the palace, yet he waited until he was 30 years old—until Saul’s death—for his ascension. His rise to power was not through self-proclamation. The Israelites recognized his eligibility and crowned him king (2 Samuel 5).

David could have killed Saul when he had the chance. It would have been easy. But he had reverence for God and waited for the appointed time. God already had a plan for Saul’s removal, and through that process, the people recognized who David truly was and elevated him. That is what I call having favor with both God and man.

I often wonder how difficult it must have been to carry such a promise in secret, to live in exile for years, and to wait over a decade to finally experience what God had spoken. That story gives me courage to wait on God. If He has said He will do it, it does not matter how long it takes.

You must remain in faith.

Faith is believing that God is bigger than your limitations. Yes, you may have no money in your account—but you serve a God who fills jars and turns water into wine. He can ordain an opportunity for provision. Yes, you may have been rejected from a job you thought was for you—but God may be orchestrating a vacancy in another organization, and soon you will see another opportunity appear.

Yes, you may have lost a partner you thought was “the one,” but this may be God’s time to heal you from loneliness, abandonment, and rejection—so that in due time, you meet the person He has truly prepared for you.

You must keep your mind on possibilities, because God is never limited by ideas. Don’t focus on your limitations. They are not big enough to stop God. You may see obstacles, but God sees the other side—and He already has a solution.

This is why I often pray that the flesh in me—the part attracted to self-pity, limitation, complaining, venting, cursing, pushing away, and running—dies daily on the cross, so that I can live by the Spirit.

Leaving negativity is hard, especially when it has been reinforced by years of education, logic, and worldly systems. We become so emotionally and psychologically governed by degrees, jobs, cars, houses, and status that trusting a God who asks you to believe without visible evidence feels strange.

The Bible says: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.”

Education is not wasted—please pursue it—but don’t lead with it. Sometimes worldly knowledge makes us arrogant as Christians. We talk ourselves out of God’s plan by listing our limitations, as if He doesn’t already know them.

Instead, expect God to do better than you. Expect Him to bless you in places people would never expect you to be elevated. Remember Nazareth—people said nothing good could come from there, yet that is where God chose to come in the flesh.

Never limit God to your understanding or cultural beliefs. Stay open, and little by little, He will reveal His ways. You will be amazed by His power. You will grow in trust. You will live a life of great exploits—not overnight, but season by season.

Walking with God is step by step.

First comes love. Then God tests your faith. In that season, you must decide what truth you will stand on. Truth is what God has spoken to you in secret prayer and what He has written in His Word—not the doubts, not the trauma, not the arguments against Christianity.

You must fight the battle of the mind to establish peace, faith, joy, gentleness, and self-control. Do not let emotions dictate outcomes. Do not let other people’s opinions define your faith. Stand on what you know about God.

If you are reading this, I pray that you win the battle of establishing the mind of Christ. When you have the mind of Christ, you walk by faith and not by sight. You are not afraid. You complain less. You wait on God with confidence.

Even if people leave you, God stays. He has a plan to elevate you, to partner with you, to transform you.

As 2026 begins, let go of what has been holding you back. Instead of venting for hours, bring it to God. I carried abandonment and family trauma for nearly ten years. In October, I finally placed it at the feet of Jesus. He healed me. I forgave. I moved on. What held me for a decade, He handled in a few moments of surrender.

Now I am learning not to be easily offended—a goal for 2026. I want to live in peace, even in storms, like Jesus sleeping in the boat.

Unforgiveness was blocking me from experiencing God’s power. I don’t know what is holding you back, but take it to the cross. Don’t worry about how He will do it. Walk in hope, and trust will grow.

I have spiritual goals—to understand the authority of Christ, the mind of Christ, and to walk fully by faith. That is where true power is. God rewards faithful servants.

Have spiritual ambitions. Write down what you want to do with God. The stories of Daniel, Joseph, and others speak deeply to me—wisdom, understanding, dreams. Which stories speak to you?

God can do in your life what He did in theirs, in your own context.

I’ll leave you with this:

We serve a God who is able.
Do not look left or right—fix your eyes on Jesus.
No matter what you hear, see, or think, choose to believe.
Your mustard-seed faith can move mountains.
