Helen Calder: "Divine Orchestration: God Is Working on Your Behalf"

From the Desks of Steve Shultz and Julie A. Smith:

Don't you love watching God's plans divinely coming to pass in your life?

He's very good at doing this, even when we don't see it or we don't know He's working behind the scenes.

Helen Calder is a great teacher, and there so much to learn from her messages and words from the Lord.

She shares this from God to you:

Hear God say, "Regardless of what it looks like right now, I am working within the scenes, and I am moving behind the scenes."

Yes and amen. God is working on your behalf, and you will see it as His divine orchestration unfolds in your life! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

Have you been facing challenges and uncertainty? The Lord wants you to know that as you have put your trust in Him, the Holy Spirit is at work. And even now, divine orchestration is taking place. It's a biblical principle that Paul describes this way:

"...we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose." (Rom. 8:28, NKJV)

What Is Divine Orchestration?

Divine orchestration refers to God working in the background—in the unseen realm—to bring about His purposes on Earth in response to prayer.

Hear God say, "Regardless of what it looks like right now, I am working within the scenes, and I am moving behind the scenes."

What an amazing truth—that the One who is the great Conductor of the universe knows what you are facing right now, and He is extending His mercy and power toward you.

A Prophetic Dream About a Train Station

A couple of years ago, I dreamed I was in a crowded train station where people were milling around. It was confusing and chaotic.

A train station can represent a time of waiting or transition—or a felt need to get back on track! And no wonder, for I received the dream early in the pandemic when we, along with so many globally, were in lockdown. So, the following day, as we worshiped with our church online, I remembered the dream and asked the Lord about it. (Photo via Piqsels)

What a surprise I had! Suddenly in a vision, I saw a train carriage stop directly in front of me with the door open. As though in a movie, it "popped" out of the frame, completely still, and Jesus was in the carriage. He was leaning forward, His arm outstretched so that He could help me on board.

I knew that time had stopped, and within that time frame, God was moving—His angels were at work!

Oh glory! It gave me reassurance, especially as it was so vivid, and the sense of Jesus being there was so real. It was an "I've got this" message from God.

God Is at Work in Synchronization

See Jesus extending His hand to you right now. The One who loves you dwells in the eternal realm and He already knows the future. In fact, He occupies it and is neither frustrated by time nor hampered by it, for He operates both inside and outside of time.

God is constantly working on your behalf, and no issue is beyond your Father's reach (Ps. 139). Plus, He is the Master of synchronization and timing. What we see as a miraculous "coincidence" is actually our Father at work. The time comes when God reveals what He has been up to all along, and we are in awe as He moves in His power to supply what we need.

Faced with a Shortening Supply

We see a great example of this in Jacob's story: Jacob and his family lived in Canaan at a time when the region was in a devastating drought, and their supply of grain was not getting replenished by what they could grow. But little did Jacob know that in the midst of crisis, divine orchestration was at work, and that Joseph—the son Jacob thought he had lost forever—was in Egypt, ruling the land!

Meanwhile, Joseph was amassing vast quantities of grain on behalf of Pharaoh.

"Joseph gathered very much grain, as the sand of the sea, until he stopped counting, for it was immeasurable." (Gen. 41:49, NKJV)

What a contrast...even though Jacob didn't realize it and couldn't see it, this abundance of provision was already available to him. It was there, prepared and waiting!

The Language He Spoke

So God had already set aside what Jacob needed. Yet all Jacob could see was the limitation in front of him—the dwindling grain supply for his household. (Photo via Unsplash)

"And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the grain which they had brought from Egypt, that their father said to them, 'Go back, buy us a little food.'" (Gen. 43:2, NKJV)

That word "little," as translated in Hebrew (Strong's H4592), also means "small," "hardly" or "little worth." And that was Jacob's expectation! It was all he could see; it was the language he spoke: Purchase just enough to get by—for now.

"I Will Enlarge the Ground Under You"

Today, whatever contradiction confronts you, be assured that just as He did for Jacob, He will do for you; God already has a portion set aside for you!

Joseph later explained, "...God sent me before you to preserve a posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance." (Gen. 45:7, NKJV)

So God was at work orchestrating the answer before the problem even began!

Today, hear your Father say, "My beloved child, I am working all things together in your life. Even when confronted with what appears to be a limiting factor, you can be assured that it does not restrict Me. It can never prevent My action on your behalf."

"Dear one, come and see what I see. Step into My Word and I will show you what I have made available to you. As you take one tiny step, I will enlarge the ground under you. Even while you wait and wonder, I am at work, and together we will not be late; we will be right on time."
