A Friendly Reminder:
Roman’s 8:32 says, “Since He did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else?” What is it that you’re asking and/or believing God for? If you feel yourself getting discouraged, don’t… for God is faithful!
Still waiting for a prayer to be answered? …well, keep waiting! Keep bringing your request before the Lord! Keep believing, keep trusting, keep expecting! Keep it moving because one of these days…! …at the appointed time! In His timing, He WILL answer! In the book of Luke, Jesus shares a parable of how we should be persistent in our requests.
The scripture says, “There was a judge in a certain city,”who neither feared God nor cared about people. A widow of that city came to him repeatedly, saying, ‘Give me justice in this dispute with my enemy.’ The judge ignored her for a while, but finally he said to himself, ‘I don’t fear God or care about people, but this woman is driving me crazy. I’m going to see that she gets justice, because she is wearing me out with her constant requests!”—
Luke 18:2-5 NLT
Then verse 7 says, “Even he (the judge) rendered a just decision in the end. So don’t you think God will surely give justice to his chosen people who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?” (The answer is NO!) The problem, however, is that we throw in the towel too easily! No one wants to wait for anything anymore because we’ve become spoiled by this society that has given us access to instant messaging, same-day delivery, quick grits, quick fix, quick this and quick that. We even figured out how to wear braids without having to sit in a chair for hours and hours (wigs, crochet, etc.) Sorry to break it to you, but despite all of that, God does NOT operate like that! He’s the God of perfection, excellence and high quality, so there will be a process most of the time, and it takes time. We have to train ourselves to be patient! Don’t think the blessing is not coming just because you don’t see it yet! It’s coming, just praise God for it while you’re waiting! Keep the faith! Keep knocking, keep seeking, and keep pushing. You got this, and God’s got you! 🙌🏽 Don’t talk yourself out of your blessings with negative and defeated speech, but speak life over your situations and watch the Lord show up on your behalf! 🙌🏽✝️💃🏽
