FAITH CAPSULE: Your change will only come at the appointed time of God.
Exodus 2
Change is the act of transformation or substituting of one situation for another.
All should always look for a better condition in the life of journey.
When the Israelites began to feel pain in the hands of Pharaoh and his people, the need for change began to press on the Israelites.
Exodus 2:23-25 records, “Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage. So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God acknowledge them.”
The Israelites needed a change when they cried to God, and their cries reached God.
Crying to God is not evidence of weakness but an expression of expectation.
God heard the crying of the Israelites and remembered them, but the change did not answer immediately.
Are you waiting on God prayerfully for a change?
Know that change will only come at the appointed time of God.
You have indeed been waiting for quite some time but have nothing to show for your waiting.
Delay is all you are experiencing in the place of expectation for change, and know that delay is not a denial.
Delay is possibly the device of the enemy to frustrate your expectation when waiting on God.
Ignore delay but lay your request for a change at the feet of the Master. In the life journey, experiencing being delayed in expectation will prompt discouragement.
Discouragement provokes complaints.
The complaint is an act of rebellion.
In your case, disallowing discouragement and complaint will not have a place in you.
Without complaint in you, rebellion will have to relocate itself outside of you.
Worrying is like a parasite that will eat into one quietly when change seems to be slow in coming forth.
Deal with worry by engaging in worshiping God.
Worship God by praising and giving Him thanks to God regardless of manifestation or not.
Give thanks to God for all things, and all things will work for good.
As you wait for a change, be conscious that your thoughts deliver by your action.
Do not doubt in your heart as regards your expectation for change. Having doubts will prompt you to have a backup plan for your expectation.
However, in faith, there is no backup plan.
The backup plan is a lack of faith, and God is not pleased when there is no faith. (Hebrews 11:6)
Live life to please God while you are waiting on Him for your expected change.
Your change shall come.
Prayer for today: Ask God for the grace to be patient and become persistent in waiting on Gom.
