I want to encourage and pray for those who are feeling overwhelmed by the ‘waiting period.’ It’s not supposed to overwhelm you sons and daughters of God; yet, it’s almost become a burden to some. Some are giving up on promises because time has passed. Some have even been told by others ‘if the doors haven’t opened, it wasn’t God who spoke.’ That is an easier line to accept because giving up is easy, fighting through is hard. The Lord said; cast your burdens unto the Lord for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). He said; the battle is not yours, but the Lord’s (2 Chronicles 20:15). He said; My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in your weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). He said; those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint (Isaiah 40:31). He said, the effectual fervent prayers of a righteous man availeth much (James 5:16b). He said, For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but in the end it will speak AND it will NOT LIE. Though it tarries; wait for it because it will surely come, it will not tarry (Habakkuk 2:3). He said; My word that goes forth from MY MOUTH, its shall not return to Me void but it shall ACCOMPLISH what I please, and it SHALL PROSPER for the thing for which I sent it (Isaiah 55:11).
Things may seem impossible but know with God all things are possible. Keep praying and keep praising Him. Don’t give up because He’s got it covered. If He spoke it, He will bring it to pass. Delay is not denial.
AGAIN, if you know and you know God spoke to you – STAND AND STAND FIRM. Pray and declare each promise praising God for His faithfulness and STAND some more until you see it come to pass. Remember, God is not man that He should lie or the son of man that He should change is mind (Numbers 23:19). Yes, some promises are conditional: obey and be faithful to Gods instructions and WAIT. Don’t quit. Trust God. He is faithful. Be found faithful in your waiting.
God bless you above and beyond!
Love & Blessings – Eunice
