My children visited their dad because schools closed down here in my country due to the virus outbreak. Then our President announced a lockdown and my FH let me know that my daughter wants to stay with him during this 21 day period but my son wants to come home. I really did not want my daughter to stay there, but I trusted my Heavenly Husband will use this all for good, so I agreed.
Before the lockdown, my FMIL told me that my FH said he might not bring my son back. I went to my Heavenly Husband and asked Him if this was Him telling me to prepare for this? What I got was: "Be still and know that I am God". Not a yes or no, so this means I was to trust that whatever the outcome, He will use it for good.
The day before the lockdown arrived and my son was supposed to return home and I did not hear anything from my FH. I wanted so badly to contact him and ask if my son is coming back, but Praise the Lord, He kept me from doing this.
Instead of contacting my FH, I spoke to my Heavenly Husband and got excited to spend 21 days alone with Him. I started to discuss with Him what the two of us would be doing during this time.
Maybe 10 minutes later, my phone rang. It was my FH, but I did not dread the call because I knew whatever he would be saying, I can be joyful and if he would say he cannot bring my son back, I would be able to answer lovingly that I understand.
What he said was, that they were 25 minutes away and would I mind making him a cup of coffee. Praise the Lord I was sitting down:) My FH is bringing my son back and wants to have a cup of coffee before he leaves!!! I cannot remember when last he drank coffee at our house let alone be the one to ask for it. Isn't the Lord just so amazing!!!
My Heavenly Husband also showed me that it was so very hard for my FH to get in his car and leave us behind. For these 21 days our family will be physically split in two and as sad as it is for me that my daughter won't be with me through this time I also know and trust that my Heavenly Husband has it all under control! What the enemy is trying to use to hurt me and make me lose my joy, my Heavenly Husband will turn around and use for His glory!
"He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”" Psalm 46:10 NIV
"Surrender your anxiety! Be silent and stop your striving and you will see that I am God. I am the God above all the nations, and I will be exalted throughout the whole earth." Psalm 46:10 TPT
I actually forgot about the second part of this verse. As I went looking for it, I realized that this is exactly what I just wrote in my Praise Report. We will see the glory of God, He will be exalted!!!
