TEXT: "And the Lord turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before" (Job 42:10)

God is committed to restoring this month and onwards (Joel 2:25-26). God doesn't lie (Num 23:19). A day is too much for Him to fulfil His promise of restoration in your life. Today's anchor scripture shows us one important key Job applied that manifested his doublefold restoration!

1. COMMIT TO PRAYING FOR OTHERS
Some Christians are too full of: "me, I, myself mentality" and this has robbed them of God's intervention in many ways. Hey! You focus on yourself and needs too much and this has prevented the Hand of God from reaching you. Until Job shifted his focus from self to his friends, his restoration did not happen. He shifted his focus from his problem to the problems of his friends and his doublefold restoration manifested. Job did not know that his restoration was tied to his intercession for his friends. That may be true of you today.

Stop praying for yourself and needs and pray for the needs of others. This is the secret that Job traded. It worked for him, it will work for you too. This means, instead of praying for God to restore your marriage, pray for those who are having challenges in their marriages and pray for the unmarried for God to connect them to their ordained spouses. And for you who need a life partner, pray for those who need life partners like you and for those who have challenges in their homes. You want a job? Pray for the jobless. Are you waiting for fruit of the womb? Pray for others who are also waiting.

What you make do for others God will make do for you. Whatever area you need restoration, look for someone in that line and start to pray for them this week.

PRAYER: I see God filling every vacuum in your life as you stand in gap for others in Jesus name!

DAILY CONFESSION:
This year 2024, I am advancing in adversity because I've been redeemed to flourish in hard times therefore my life shall be full of wonders. Amen and amen.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: "What you make do for others God will make do for you."
