Delay is NOT Denial

NOT

Today's blog post is to remind you of a few things:
1. You are not insignificant, Don't believe lies that the devil as told you
2. God has plans for you and He WILL bring them to pass
3. Delay is not denial.

 I know that sometimes we can find it hard to hold on to faith when nothing seems to be happening in our lives. It may be that you have waited several years for a certain kind of breakthrough and though you've waited and prayed and trusted God, you're not seeing results. It may seem like the enemy is kicking at you from every side. It may seem that every one else around you is moving forward and you feel stagnant. It may feel like God has forgotten you, but trust me Child of God, He has not. If anything, He is getting ready to launch you from your stagnant position. When God is ready for you, he is going to blow your mind. His plans are so great that you'd probably stop believing if He told you all of it. But don't worry, your patience will be rewarded.

Trust God, trust Him, trust Him. Don't lose hope, don't lose faith and above all; don't believe the lies of the devil. You are not insignificant. Man may overlook you but God is setting you up for awesome things. Man may think you're too small to accomplish anything, but God is setting up your launching pad. Man may think that you're not educated enough, or your parents are not rich enough or that your past is too soiled, but remember, God does not need your education, He is your father so your natural lineage does not matter and He forgot your past the day He forgave you so even that does not matter.

Don't look at your delay and see denial, but stand firm on God's promises to you, I know that you have heard many as God speaks to all of us in some way shape or form. Know that the God that keeps watch over you will NOT leave you to suffer. Delay is NOT denial child of God. Fight! The last thing the enemy wants is to see you move forward! Fight! Fight! Don't let his lies take away your fight or your faith. Trust God.

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. I will be found by you,” says the Lord. “I will end your captivity and restore your fortunes. I will gather you out of the nations where I sent you and will bring you home again to your own land.” Jeremiah 29:11-14

Remember, Delay is NOT Denial!
