WAIT ON THE LORD

I will climb up into my watchtower now and wait to see what the Lord will say to me and how he will answer my complaint. Then the Lord said to me, "Write my answer in large, clear letters on a tablet, so that a runner can read it and tell everyone else. But these things that I plan won't happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed."  (Hab. 2 v 1-3 NLT)
 
The reason that we are being led to share this verse is two-fold. God has breathed new life into this ministry. God wants to breathe new life into you through this ministry.
Back in January, we were all set to go ahead and believe God to write a book on Christian living. God blocked that book. But what you probably didn't know is that we were also set to go ahead and purchase (3) suits. God blocked that purchase. Slowly, steadily, surely is how God chooses to operate! Well today, a co-worker, glory to God, blessed me with (3) suits! Obedience to God children, is paramount to receiving God's best!
 
"Look at the proud! They trust in themselves, and their lives are crooked, but the righteous will live by their faith." (Hab. 2 v 4 NLT)
 
Child-of-God, when you trust in yourself, you are proud and your life is crooked. But when you choose to trust in God, you are righteous and your life is lived by faith. So what are you believing God for: a baby, a spouse, a ministry? Maybe you need finance, a home or healing?
 
Believe when we say that God knows your voice and your Father knows your need.
God knows your voice child-of-God and He will not and I repeat, will not give you what He purposed for me and He won't give me what He purposed for you!
 
The answer that God told me to write in large, clear letters on a tablet is YES, and as I am writing this a runner has read it and He is telling everyone, and that means you too, child-of-God..........that the things that your Daddy has in store for you won't happen right away. But, Slowly, Steadily, Surely, the time is approaching when the vision will be fulfilled. It may seem slow, but wait patiently, for it will surely take place, and another word for surely is unhesitatingly, undoubtedly, certainly; without hesitation, without doubt, absolutely, positively it will happen and it will not be delayed.  2 Corinthians 1 v 20 reminds us: For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "YES" in Christ. And so through Him the "AMEN" is spoken by us to the glory of God. (NIV)
 
Remember, God can do anything and everything; there is nothing too hard for your Daddy God!
