IT IS TIME

 

                        He has made everything beautiful in its time,
also He has set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out
the work that God makes from the beginning to the end.
 Ecclesiastes 3:11

   Life is all about timing...the
unreachable becomes reachable, the unavailable becomes available, the unattainable...attainable. Have the patience, wait it out. Its all about timing.

           This is our year of Divine Positioning. Expectant. Excited. Anticipating. Words that describe how many of us feel after hearing the Word of the Lord. But wait there's another word. Tired. "What??"some of you ask. How many times have your heard it said "Its your time" ? How long have you waited for the dreams that you have held dear to your heart to become a reality? Their fulfillment seems to be elusive and you are teetering at the edge of giving up. Your thoughts plagued by the hopelessness that threatens your faith.

                Our Father, our God is not a liar. Neither is He a fickle human being,promising one thing and doing another. When He says it, He means it. And when He means it, He says it. Your life is not a happenstance,a chance, a-by-the-way. It is perfectly ordered for, ordained for and planned for - Psalm 139:16, Acts 17:24-28. The very same God that put the stars into place, spins the planets in their
axis', He knows you by name.

                 What do you do then when it looks like no matter what you do, the promises of God are a dream away, unattainable and  unreachable?

(1) You trust - "Yeah right!!" some may say. "Why bother?" others may
ask. While you wait, you trust. You take Him at His Word,you believe
it and and you will see the fulfillment of His promises. - 2nd
Corinthians 7:1

(2) Keep your side of the deal - You are His child, His sheep, His
charge. He is your God, your Father, your provider. Don't try to do
His job for Him, He is quite capable and He will keep His promises.

(3) Live your faith a day at a time -  Seek the strength that you need
form His Word. Pursue after Him as you are combing through the
scriptures. Let your heart melt at the goodness of the Lord.

(4) Make praise your weapon - When it is hard to praise, do it anyway!
You  will begin to feel uplifted and you will have your focus
redirected to the One deserving your praise. Use it unashamedly. Use
it unreservedly. Use it apologetically. Use it. Praise your way
through. - Psalm 34:1

(5) Decree and declare - Speak His Word to yourself and back to Him.
Proclaim the finish before you get there. This takes the tenacity and
a 'don't-give-in,won't-give-in' attitude. He spoke it and it was -
Genesis 1:3,6,9. Do the same and it will be - Psalm 103:20.
