“The vision is yet

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
The scripture says, “The
vision is for an appointed time.” That means there is a specific time already
determined for the fulfillment of the desires God has placed in your heart.
The appointed time is the best time! We have to trust that God can see the big
picture for our lives. He knows what’s up ahead. He knows what we’re going to
need, who we’re going to need, and when they need to show up. If God did
everything we ask on our timetable, it would limit us because sometimes, what
we’re asking for is too small. Sometimes the person we think we can’t live
without, God knows in ten years they’re not going to be good for us. So He is
closing the door right now. Sometimes the promotion we want so badly, if God
gave it to us right now, He knows it would keep us from a much bigger
promotion that He has three years down the road.
Remember, God has the
advantage of seeing it all. The longer I live, the more I trust Him. The more
I see His hand of faithfulness, the more I know that His plan is better than
my plan. Today, trust that He knows what He’s doing. Trust that He has an
appointed time, and it is the best time to bring to pass His promises in your
life!

When the going gets tough do we abandon our God – do we jump ship because we are “going through” The answer is NO , as Christians we must keep the faith – even when it does not look good or feel good – you have to know its working for the good – you must learn the lesson – the season of testing – your harvest season is over – it’s time for reaping your reward – you stood the good fight - they lied on you, they cheated on you, they ignored you, your finances fell so below it’s a wonder you are still standing- and yet through it all you kept harvesting and trusting – storing up on his word and planting good seeds. The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
