The truth is many things are just a matter of time. The Bible tells us that God promised Abraham a son and he kept believing God for that child. He waited for years; he waited for over two decades and needed to still wait more. It did not matter how desperately he wanted the child, he needed to keep waiting and believing if the child he wanted was the one God promised.
[Romans 4:16-21 KJV] “Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all, [17] (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were”.
[18] “Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. [19] And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara’s womb: [20] He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; [21] And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform”.
Sometimes, many of us rush and miss God’s best for our lives. Abraham and Sarah rushed. Sarah recommended Hagar for Abraham, God heard it but did not stop them. When we rush out of the will of God and begin to follow our mistakes and the foolish pride of life, God just watches us because He does and will not force His will on us.
Whenever God makes a promise, He wants us to keep waiting for Him. The Bible says “it is by faith that it might be by grace”. His promise will be delivered in the fullness of time. The Bible tells us that Isaac was born in the fullness of time. He was born when the time was ripe and right. There was nothing Abrahan or Sarah could do to hasten the time. We must learn how to keep believing somethings and wait for God’s perfect timing. If you rush the process, you are rushing for nothing. You may give birth to Ishmael but he can never take the place of Isaac.
When you feel like time is running out and things are dying and not responding to you, just remember this;
- Don’t stagger at the promise through unbelief
- Keep giving glory to God; maintain your praise
- Be fully persuaded that God is able to do what He has promised
Convince yourself that God is able to raise the dead; none of the things He has promised shall fail in fulfilling. God is faithful and He will honour His word without fail. All things will happen in His time.
The Bible tells us that “He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end” (Ecclesiastes 3:11 KJV).All things will be sorted out soon. It may tarry but it will happen in its time. It is only a matter of time. Keep waiting! Keep believing! Keep trusting! Keep hoping.
Remember, that the vision is for an appointed time. “In the end it shall speak for itself. It may tarry but will not rot. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry” (Habakkuk 2:3 KJV).
I see the full manifestations of your healing coming! I see the word of God fully manifested in your life! There is the coming of a new day! God will help and sustain you. It is only a matter of time. The best is about to happen. Somethings will happen in its time and not yours.
Prayer
(Say with me) Father, I thank You that You still remember Your word to me. I bless You that You will never forget Your promise. I bless You that Your word never fails. I know You are faithful! (Bless the Lord with singing and thanksgiving)
(Declare with me) I stagger not at the promise; I will not lose my praise; I will sing of His glory as the heavens speak of His glory; I will keep pressing on. I know my God is able! I know my God can and will do all things! I have no doubt in my mind that God is working on my case. It will not delay! It will not tarry! It will happen beautifully in its time. (Affirm your faith in prayer)
(Say with me) By fire! By thunder! By quakes! By voices! Any bird or beast assigned against my promise, my word, or my testimony is rebuked now! In the name of Jesus Christ! I receive my testimony, my miracle, my word, now! Now!! In the name of Jesus Christ! We break down! We demolish and take charge in the name of Jesus Christ! (Pray!).
(Affirm with me) I embrace my healing, my peace, my joy, my marriage, my progress, my babies! I receive the answers to my prayer! His word is fulfilled! I am blessed! I am above! In charge!
Thank you, Lord!
I love you
