As I wait on the promises God has given me the enemy tries to attack. And you like me will also receive these attacks. But we must always remind ourselves of what God has spoken and what He has done. The song “Too Good To Not Believe” keeps playing over and over in my head lately. The words and the melody “You’re the wonder working God. You’re the wonder working God. All the miracles I’ve seen too good to not believe.” And as it pops in my head I sing it out ❤ This song is such an amazing reminder that I have the privilege of serving and intimately knowing such an amazing God. He cares for us and He desires to bless us. God is not a man that He should lie. Numbers 23:19 “God is not a man, that He should tell or act a lie, neither the son of man, that He should feel repentance or compunction for what He has promised. Has He said and shall He not do it? Or has He spoken and shall He not make it good?” Everything He has promised will come to pass in His perfect timing.
It’s the “in His perfect timing” that can be a bit hard for me sometimes. Like most of us if God tells me something is mine or that He is doing something then I expect it! I want it now! Selfishly a lot of times we run on our own timeline rather than look to God and see what He is trying to do. We often need to wait. Wait on God and trust. He likes to see if we can trust while we wait and are we willing to trust? Are we even willing to wait? God has brought Job up to me in several ways lately and just as Job was tested we will also be tested. If we desire to move to higher levels we will be tested. But these trials we may endure are not to make us cold and bitter. Rather, these trials are to produce a refined character in us which indeed will produce sweeter fruits. Zachariah 13:9 “This third I will put into the fire. I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call my name and I will answer them; I will say these are my people.” As we grow and become more like Christ we will possess the fruits of the spirit. Galatians 5:22-23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
As I said before as you desire to go to higher levels God will begin to refine you. And as you continue to grow the Holy Spirit will convict you. When you need direction God will show you the way and He will be a lamp to your feet. So don’t despair in the trials because God is pruning you so you can produce a sweeter fruit. You will receive the Harvest of what He has promised. Remember He is the wonder working God. Declare and Sing! Praise Him from your heart “I Believe You’re the Wonder Working God!” change your heart and the atmosphere with praise. Trust where God is taking you He knows the way. Trust that where He is leading you is the exact direction that you need to be.
Remember You are Fearfully Made
