Strength and honor are her clothing; She shall rejoice in time to come. Proverbs 31:25
If you have been in church any amount of time or have been around any elderly people, you have surely heard many times “everything happens in God’s time” or “He may not come when you want Him but He’s always on time” and usually you didn’t want to hear it because what you wanted you wanted right then. You’ve told yourself, in times of need, “God will work it out” and sometimes He did but sometimes He didn’t. As a result you may have found yourself doubting Him or working very hard to hold on to your faith. Well I’ve learned that God’s timing is so amazing that if you are truly paying attention, you will notice He is always right on time. Yep, just like they told you.
Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16
Sometimes you think you are ready for something but you aren’t and God knows it so He won’t let you have it. There are other times that you ask Him to do something and He already has but you haven’t reached the point of seeing it. God is never blind to what is going on in your life and He is so gracious that He will not let you walk into something you aren’t ready for. Rather than complain, praise Him for the delay. What God has planned for you has not changed and you should not stop preparing for it. Your blessing is on the way and will arrive when you are ready to receive it.
Prepare yourself and be ready,
Minister Deidra Bibb
