The name of this Book is right on target in Chapter two. Oral Roberts faith is being put to work in a time were their seem to be no solution to solve their family Problem of running out of Food to Eat. Oral speaks of a day when their family had absolutely nothing to eat. To make matters worst his mother takes them to visit a Family friend who is cooking dinner at the time. This woman invites them to eat dinner with her family, but to my surprise in reading this book her mother kindly declines. Now I am thinking wow! she said No! when she knew they had no food to eat, isn`t this God answering her prayers by allowing a friend to invite her in for dinner? But Oral`s mom knew that God would provide in a different way, She had to hear from God and trust in his voice, and his wisdom that this was not the answer to her prayer, a quick meal. For she waited patiently on God! My eyes were glue to the pages wanting to know how God would show up and if so when? As I read on Vernan, Oral Roberts older brother was becoming weary, who would not be?`s your hungry and you just watch your mom`s friend just eat dinner and you were not`t allowed to eat! Could you still trust God under this circumstances as your body ached in hungry pains? Well, Oral and his mother knew better as Oral spoke these word to his brother "God will take care of us! "And God surely did by providing a basket full of food to be Left in their home after they had return home from visiting their Mother`s friend home. A meal Fit for a King! God had provided more than what they had even ask for. I can be sure by now they probably were so hungry they would had been satisfy with just a loaf of Bread. Sometimes God allows us to go without to get us to step out a little deeper in faith ,not just to be satisfy but to expect God to Move above and beyond for the scriptures tell us that he will do exceedely! and beyond! what we ask of Him and THAT WAS JUST IT! God did exactly what he said in his word, he just did not provided ,but he went beyond! But it require them to step out in faith and reject an easy answer to a prayer and expect God to move mightily! Are you expecting God to do miracles for you also ? Ask Big! for he is able to do it and when he does you will know it came from the Lord.
Ephesians 3:20Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
