The Waiting Process

It's never easy to wait on God. It takes a kind of patience that many of us do not possess because God's timing is not our timing. A year to us can be like a second to God but the point is do we trust God more than we trust the time? God is not an untrustworthy God. We have no reason to doubt Him yet we do. In this world of technology and easy access we make our prayer life the same way. We expect to pray and receive like it's a microwave dinner. Unfortunately, that is not how prayer is supposed to work. Besides prayer is supposed to be more about building a relationship with our Father than asking Him to grant wishes like He is our magical genie in a bottle waiting to grant us wishes at our command.

I wonder how our prayer life would change if we focused more on what God wanted us to do instead of what we wanted God to do for us? I believe we would have a whole lot less unanswered prayers because we would already be on the right track with God. By seeking God first we would be in His will and not our will. God always grants us what is in His will. It is when we try to make our will His will that we become disappointed when we do not receive what we have been praying for. It's time for a prayer lifestyle change. Waiting on God most likely will never be easy. However, waiting with a cheerful heart will make the process less challenging. God does not break His promises!

I can admit that sometimes waiting on God's timing can become frustrating. Nevertheless, I have learned two thing either I am not ready to receive my request or my request is not ready to receive me! Either way God has a perfect timing for His release and it's my job to wait patiently knowing that He only wants what is best for me. I have learned also that it is best to stay in God's will during the waiting process because we can cause ourselves to forfeit the right to receive what we are asking God for. As children of God we cannot be disobedient and still expect to be rewarded. God rewards His faithful servants not servants who think they know better than God. Many times our pride and impatience gets us into trouble that we cannot get ourselves out of.

The waiting process isn't a time to just sit idle. It's a time to prepare for what you are asking God for. Whether it be a new job, a new house, a new baby, a husband or a wife it is time to PREPARE! The great thing about waiting is that you have plenty of time to prepare and be ready to receive the blessing or miracle you need and want from God.You may not want to wait but what choice do you really have? Remember you cannot see what God sees on the other side of the mountain.Your job is to just wait and while waiting get prepared. Some of you have lost some things and are waiting on God to return your peace, your joy, your hope, your child, or even your spouse.

Yes, we get tired waiting...BUT WAIT! We get confused waiting....BUT WAIT! We get discouraged waiting....BUT WAIT! We cry waiting....BUT WAIT! You see it's power in waiting. Those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength...Yes those who wait mount up like EAGLES! Don't worry about the wait!!! You see when God releases you from the waiting room He is going to take you into surgery. He is going to replace the old with the new. He is going to give you a spiritual dialysis! Yes, God is restoring what the enemy thought he stole from you but God only let him borrow it because He had something greater. 

What the enemy thought he was stealing can't touch what God has for you on the other side of that waiting room! It's time to come up into that recovery room! It's time recover from the loss! It's time to recover from the disappointment, the rejection. the abandonment, the lies, the naysayers, the backstabbers, the liars, the cheaters, it's time to RECOVER Ya'll! The enemy thought he was going to flat line you when he did what he did but God supercharged you with His anointing! By all means.....WAIT!!!! Let me stop before I start preaching!!! Just know when the wait is over everything God promised you will come to pass in Jesus name!!!!!

Home Is Where The Heart Is...

I can't explain it but every time I come to New York I never want to leave. On my to Newark yesterday afternoon I can't explain why it felt like home driving through the city and taking in the view. After all I have never lived anywhere but Florida. The closer it gets to my departure date a sadness overwhelms me knowing once again I will be heading back to my home state. It won't be so long before I return again. This feels like my second home that should have been my first! =')

Sighs...Blog with you later loves!!! **Smooches**

Unspeakable Joy

I cannot explain this joy but of course I do know it could come from nowhere but God. I feel like my emotions are overwhelming me with such great things. My heart is flooding with so much of God's love. It seems like in the midst of such uncertainty God is the constant certainty reminding me that His loves never fails. I feel like He performed open heart surgery on me. Everything feels different. Even the way I love has become so much different. I continue to look into what lies ahead while being thankful for what I left behind.God is doing something and my atmosphere is surrounded by His love knowing He has great things in store for me. Just knowing that even when I could not see the light of my very dark tunnel, God was my light and He walked me through until the victory was mine and the glory was His! I am truly nothing without God but in Him I am everything and I  have everything!
