What is it, that you have been striving hard to get, and seems dragging and looks as if there will be no end? It is delaying so much that you have lost all hope, and this has caused your distractions, health issue; and lack of focus, thinking and kept you unhappy. The Bible says in Job 39:12, “Can you trust Him; to bring grains and gather it to your threshing floor? I have good news for you that trusting him as Abraham and Sarah; Anna, Rachel did during their delay that brought them great joy and honor are not far from Manifesting in your life too. Job when he was going thought trails of life still trusted God and at the end gave glory to God. The Bible says in Philippians 4:13, “ I can do all things through Him that who strengthens me." Let God be your strength during this delaying period. In Psalms 37:4 the Bible says, "Delight yourself in the Lord; and He will give you desires of your heart.What exactly is the delay in your life, is it job, fruit of the womb, financial situation, promotion, health issue that is prolonged, family issues, marriage issue to mention a few. I will encourage you to take these steps during a delay period: 1. Ask God for forgiveness of sin
2. Delight to do God’s Will
3. Pray without seasons making your request Known to God
4. Fasting, praising Him and giving thanks to God
5. Have strong faith that cannot be moved.
6. Focus on the promise of God for your life (Anna was focused in prayer)
7. Listen to the voice and direction of God, (not what people around you are saying.
The Bibles says in Act 17:26, from one man he made every nation of men that they should inhabit the whole earth; and He determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live."God set time for your delay is now; when the set time of Sarah came as the Bibles says in Genesis18:10 " "He said, I will surely return to you at this time next year; and behold Sarah your wife will have a son. Sarah's delay was not a denial; instead, it brought great blessings; so also God will turn your delay in every area of your life to bring blessings. I am thanking God for the testimony awaiting you in Jesus name.
