Delay Is Not Denial!
Delay is preparation: they say that luck is when preparation meets opportunity!
It’s not easy waiting on God for His promises, ask Abraham; He had to wait a few decades for Gods promise of his own son with Sarah. (Genesis)
Ask Jesus, he had to wait 3 decades to live out the promise which
only lasted 3 years! (Luke).
Some of us right now are in seasons of life where we’re waiting for Gods promise! We’re waiting for Gods provision! We’re waiting…
God is a God of purpose! And everything He does is grand! And
when He gives us something, its always the best!
I want to encourage the person reading this whose tired of waiting
that the longer the wait, the greater the destiny!
You wouldn’t take food out of an oven just because you were starving, and if you did; it won’t taste as good! Well God says “I’m
cooking something great for you, and when it is finished and you taste it, you will testify and say ‘mmmm that’s good! The bible says
in Psalm 34:8 “Taste and see that the Lord is good!
Don’t be led by your starvation (feelings/desperation) and take out
the food in the oven but be led (patience) by the spirit and wait for Gods timing! Ecclesiastes 3:11 “He makes all things beautiful in His TIME.
I remember buying my first car, my parents told me to give it a
couple of months and I said no! ‘I want it now!” I told them. Well 3
months later I had a car accident that set me back $5 grand. looking back on that experience, I wish I had listened to my parents and waited! It would have saved me $5 grand and the inconvenience I went through.
I reflect on that story and i realise It’s the same with God, when we rush into things, we end up crashing, we end up losing, whether financially or in some other ways. In the area of relationships, waiting for Gods timing can save you so much. It will save you heartbreak, friendships etc
So no matter what your believing and waiting on God for, keeping believing! Because His delay is never denial!
Habakkuk 2:3
“For the vision/dream/promise awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.”
