Right on Time
It may not seem like it, especially if you have been waiting for a long time, but God is always on time. We need to trust in His timing. God works outside of time and space and He can always redeem time.
I know being patient is hard and having to endure hardships is difficult. But in the meantime, God is working on us. He is building our character. And we can use that time to get closer to God and to knowing Him.
God is faithful to His promises, so if He said that He will do something in your life, then, He will do it. Keep the faith and hope alive. God can act suddenly. He can change things in a moment. Nothing is too hard for Him.
Habakkuk2:3 For the revelation awaits an appointed time;
it speaks of the end
and will not prove false.
Though it linger, wait for it;
it will certainly come
and will not delay.4 “See, the enemy is puffed up;
his desires are not upright—
but the righteous person will live by his faithfulness
Ezekiel 12:
There Will Be No Delay
21 The word of the Lord came to me: 22 “Son of man, what is this proverb you have in the land of Israel: ‘The days go by and every vision comes to nothing’? 23 Say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am going to put an end to this proverb, and they will no longer quote it in Israel.’ Say to them, ‘The days are near when every vision will be fulfilled. 24 For there will be no more false visions or flattering divinations among the people of Israel. 25 But I the Lord will speak what I will, and it shall be fulfilled without delay. For in your days, you rebellious people, I will fulfill whatever I say, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”
26 The word of the Lord came to me: 27 “Son of man, the Israelites are saying, ‘The vision he sees is for many years from now, and he prophesies about the distant future.’
28 “Therefore say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: None of my words will be delayed any longer; whatever I say will be fulfilled, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”
