People are always pushing and shoving for position. Everybody want to be number one. People don’t pay attention to the small things about us. They want the best or the biggest. This is human nature. It is greedy, selfish, conceited and just plain stupid. After King Saul died, King David went and retrieved the Ark of the Covenant. On the way back to Jerusalem, the cart carrying the Ark hit bumps in the road. The Ark was about to fall off the cart and one of the priest reached out to grab the Ark. God struck him dead. David became so angry that he turn the cart into a small farm and left it there. God blessed the farmer with great abundance. David went and brought the Ark back to Jerusalem. That farmer, who was not important was mentioned in the bible. There are many people who are not important in anyone’s plans that God blesses because they are faithful. There was a man in the Old Testament whose name meant sorrowful. He was mentioned in 2 scriptures. His name was Jabez. In the first scripture it talks about what his name meant. In the second scripture it records his prayer. It was a very simple prayer. His family wasn’t wealthy. They needed help and the only help for him was God. He prayed his prayer and then it says that God heard him and answered. The prayers of the unimportant people are important to God. And God will answer your prayer. Connect with God and watch what His does for you.
