HOPE DEFERRED

HOPE DEFERRED

Proverbs 13:10-15

Devotional:- “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life” (V. 12) NKJV

    One of the challenges facing some Christians today can be referred to as deferred hope. This is a situation of someone waiting for the fulfillment of God’s promises in his life for a long time. Such therefore get weary and are not willing to wait for God anymore. Some have waited long for their husband, children, jobs, admission to school, and much more

We need to know that God can't fail. He is faithful, He will fulfill His word. The scripture we read today says, that when the desire comes; it is a tree of life. It means your desire shall surely come.

I have observed that most people who had to wait for a good time in the word of God often give birth to greatness in the end. Waiting in idleness is the course of hopelessness. Waiting on the Lord is building up in strength or warming up in readiness for your time (Isaiah 40:31).

Friend, God is only humbling and preparing you for that glory (Deuteronomy 8:16). Wait, so as not to waste. Job said “I will wait till my change come” (Job 14:14). Don’t give up. If God did not disappoint Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, He will not disappoint you. He will remove your shame. If you believe God with me, now is your appointed time in Jesus’ name (Psalm 102:13).

Prayer: Lord, make my miracle arrive.

“WHEN YOUR FAITH IS ALIVE, THEN YOUR MIRACLE WILL ARRIVE”
