MESSAGE
What God tells you to do, you can do it with confidence in knowing better is to come. God will also back off and let you have your way. In the midst of having your way, you’ll be praying for signs, help, and rescue…which He will answer in His time. When He answers, you have to be willing to do everything He says. Read 1 Samuel 15:22!
– Whatever it is He asked you to let go of.
– Whatever it is He said to do that you are afraid to do.
– Whatever it is He made you start and haven’t completed.
GET BACK TO IT! He is a good gift giver, read Matthew 7:11. We serve a true and living God who is faithful and just. God’s promise is still your promise! His gifts are still your gifts! It’s up to you when and if you’ll receive the Romans 8:29 and Jeremiah 29:11.
