I feel led to encourage those today who feel stuck in a seemingly “dead end” season. Last night God gave me Galatians 6:9 as a word of encouragement. Trust me He knows what you’re feeling and what you’re going through. God wants me to tell you that this “dead end” is NOT your destination! The delay being experienced may seem as though you’ve hit a dead end…but that’s a lie. The enemy wants you to believe he has won on this matter. Truthfully, the enemy could be causing delay BUT God. God has bigger plans, that of which the enemy CANNOT stop. If God has given you a word and you are waiting for it to come to pass, then trust in what He has said. Ask Him for renewed strength and confirmation. God is not a man that He should lie. If He spoke it – He will do it. Numbers 23:19 “God is not a man, that He should tell or act a lie, neither 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?”

The enemy will try to plant doubt, discouragement, and depression in the promises God has given you. Press forward and seek God. Seek His word. Seek His voice. Seek His leading. In all you do trust in Jesus because He will never lead you astray. In the trials, in the pain, in your “dead end” season just know that God is working. Though it may seem the enemy is winning that is the greatest lie to believe. Trust that through the wait God is making a way and He is preparing you.

I know a lot of times when things don’t happen as quickly as I think they should I often get upset. But through my own wait God has been showing me His heart. He has lead me to a place where I see Him and I know His goodness. So, despite a not so great situation I can still look to God as say “I know this isn’t good right now, but I know you are good God.” I have come to a place of complete trust. Though our situations may not be exactly as we’d like we can find rest knowing God is the one in control. If He is good and He loves me then there is no need to worry or fear. Know that in the wait He sees your heart. He knows your pain and He sees how you are handling everything He is entrusting you with. Maybe in this season God is calling you deeper. He desires you to move closer to His heart. He is longing to embrace you in His arms.

Keep your eyes and heart set on Jesus and the rest will fall into place. God is in control and does not take pleasure in teasing us with things. Our Abba loves us and desires to bless us. Look to Him. Focus on His goodness rather the lack of what you’re waiting on. Galatians 6:9 “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

Remember You are Fearfully Made ❤
