“And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.’” Luke 2:8-10
Shepherds were keeping watch over their flock one night when all of their lives changed. They were where they were supposed to be, doing what they were supposed to be doing. But suppose they had said, “Let us not stay out in the fields tonight; it’s way too cold out.” They would have never heard the Good News. They would never have seen the great miracle that the whole nation was waiting on.
God has ordained something special for you, as well. He has ordained a special place for you to be doing a special thing. Don’t be afraid to be where you are supposed to be, doing what you are supposed to do. It may be a promotion at work, and you may be afraid of all the new responsibilities. Maybe it is the dream of starting a new business, which is always scary. But if God is in it, it can’t fail. You have to be where you are supposed to be to see your miracle.
Heavenly Father, I pray for promotions and work decisions today. I pray for new business ventures and for ideas to become realities. I pray for confidence and for boldness for Your mercy on all business deals for Your people today that they may receive their Christmas miracle. In Jesus’ name, amen.
