“THE UNSEEN HAND”

© Opeyemi Akintunde
As Inspired by THE LIVING WORD

Ada was frustrated. Everything seemed to be going wrong. Her business wasn’t picking up, her applications were getting rejected, and relationships she counted on were fading. She prayed, fasted, and still—silence.

But what Ada didn’t see was how God was weaving her story. That job rejection saved her from an exploitative contract. That lost friendship made space for divine connections. The delayed approval gave her time to grow into the version of herself that could sustain success.

God’s hand is not always loud. Sometimes, it is the quiet redirection, the closed door, or the pause we resent.

Just because it doesn’t look like God is working doesn’t mean He isn’t.

Like Joseph in prison, like Ruth in the field, like Esther in the palace, there’s always an unseen hand orchestrating the visible outcome.

So today, rest in this truth: The silence of God is not the absence of God.

PRAYER BULLETS

1. Lord, teach me to trust even when I don’t understand.
2. Let me see Your hand in every delay and redirection.
3. Help me to be still and know that You are God.
