Imagine if Joseph had rushed with his decision to divorce. Mary could have been stoned to death because, in those days, fornication was punishable by death through stoning. Dear one, don’t make major decisions so fast. Build your intimacy with God so you can hear what He says about your life anytime you approach Him with a case to handle.
Dear one, life is long. Waiting upon the Lord builds your stature in the Spirit, renews your strength, and helps you accelerate exponentially in life without any side effects or sorrow. Don’t be in a rush in life to fulfil your dreams. Serve the God of the dreams and follow Him patiently. You’ll not be caught in the pressure to perform.
With the rise of wickedness in this world, it is much harder to live fully committed to the Lord Jesus these days. People with corrupted mindsets tend to be many in several areas of life, and the believers there are battling with what kind of people they are living and working with. But dear Christian, let it be known in your consciousness that God won’t watch you to be disgraced.
Dear friend, the Bible says you must rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him. In your waiting period, remain at peace, and the way to do that is to cease thinking about the successes of others. Do yourself a favour by praying earnestly for the peace of God to rule in your heart and mind (see Philippians 4:6-7). And don’t rush into things just to please others.
God’s word says He will give you a righteous reward that shines like the dawn when you commit your ways to Him. I’m sure you want God’s rewards. Right? But what does it mean to commit your way to Him?
Comparison is one thing many people don’t talk about, yet it is happening in the minds of many. Some people watch what their peers are doing and view themselves as having delayed lifestyles. If you have this mental struggle, the earlier you understand that God has earmarked every person’s walk of faith differently, the better. You must have a long view of life before you can understand certain things well.
Dear Christian, you must be patient with people, especially when working with them. You must understand that every single individual is different on the face of this earth. As such, navigating relationships with others is a crucial thing to master.
Partial trust in God brings partial results. However, complete surrender unlocks the fullness of His power in your life. He’s waiting in the secret place, ready to be not just a part of your life but your very foundation. Are you prepared to let go of every other foundation and make Him your only source? Today, take that step. Release those backup plans, lay down those false securities, and watch how God moves when He becomes your first and only choice.
When you are careful about interpreting the times and seasons of God’s handiwork in your life, you won’t miss His moves in your life. Furthermore, you will build patience to engage Him as He fulfils His promises in Your life step by step.
With understanding from Galatians 6:9, consistently doing good to people is an investment. It’s an act of sowing which will yield returns when the giver doesn’t give up. But those returns will come in due season, which you may never know.
Dear friend, God wants you to imitate the faith of the fathers. That means you must study the lives of the patriarchs and prophets in the Old Testament because their lives have a lot to teach you.
The journey of life is long—talking about day after day, week after week, month after month and years after years. You don’t need to rush to fulfil what God has said about your life in your own time. Yes, I understand that it is good to live the dream. But it takes patience to get there. Wage war on God’s prophecies about your life by prayer as you work. The Lord will perfect everything concerning your life.
