A God who has overcome
During Victory Weekend, the prayer ministers also prayed for my career as I was expecting an increment. I was later notified that my increment had been approved, but due to unforeseen circumstances, the company had to put everything on hold, including recruiting new talents and awarding existing employees. There was no deadline given as to when this would be lifted. I was very disappointed. I asked God why this had happened and if it was a sign from Him that I should look for new opportunities. I trust that He has better plans for me, so I prayed for the right door to be opened and for all the doors that are not meant for me to be shut. After a season of praying, I not only managed to secure a new job that offered me a salary higher than my expected salary, but the company which I was working for had also awarded me tokens of appreciation despite the turmoil they were going through. I was rewarded and I found a new job that offered me a better salary!

I am reminded that God is always at work even if, at times, you feel that things are not working in your favor. Be faithful, be patient, and you will see a better and bigger picture—one that you could have never imagined.
