DEVOTIONAL NO. 3 CALLING & FRUITFULNESS

Testimony: One Sheep Sought by God

He is not finished yet, but he is walking—being brought back to life, renewed, and beginning to walk the path of victory.

What happens when a wife loses trust in her husband?
When a family stands on the brink of breaking apart...
When children are caught in the middle of a storm they did not create?

A friend of mine said, “My life is a mess.”
Sadly, although he knew he was wrong, he still refused to let God restore his life.
With his mouth he said, “I know this is all the result of what I have done. I know God is disciplining me,”
but his heart remained hard—he still wanted to control everything himself.
And slowly, his life continued to decline... his relationship with his wife fractured, his family wavered, and his finances became uncertain.

God Gave Wisdom

Until one day, God gave me wisdom:
“Invite him to gather with men who fear God.”

So I brought him to a men’s fellowship. We ate together at a restaurant—only the men, without bringing our wives.
We listened to testimonies, heard one another’s struggles, and strengthened each other.
A place where no one pretended to be strong, but everyone opened their heart.

After the fourth gathering, he came to me with tears in his eyes.
He said, “I have knelt down. I no longer know what to do. I asked God to restore me... my family, my marriage, my finances, everything.”

And God Answered

Not with lightning from the sky.
But gently and wonderfully, one thing at a time:
God sent a spiritual mentor who loved and guided him.
God brought him together with an elementary-school friend whom he had not seen for 30 years—and this person testified about God’s faithfulness.
That testimony pierced his heart.
He knew... God was truly seeking him.

Today, I see a brother in the faith who is being restored.
He is not finished yet, but he is walking.
He is being brought back to life, renewed, and beginning to walk the path of victory.

Let us pray for him.
That he will remain faithful in following God’s way.
That he will not only be restored, but become living proof that God never gives up on one lost sheep.

Message: God Cares About the One

Jesus said:

“Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine... and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?”

Luke 15:4

God sees us one by one.
And for the one who is lost, He does not remain still.
He will seek you. Send people. Open a way. Touch your heart.

Until you return to His embrace.
