I’m so grateful to God.
I have been praying and standing in faith for something for over a year. God has just answered that prayer. It didn’t happen how I thought it would and it doesn’t look how I thought it would but I’m okay with that because God’s way is much better than what I had in mind!
I’ve stood in faith. I’ve prayed, worshiped, and spoken God’s word and promises to me out loud, sometimes even yelling them just to make sure Satan could hear me. I’ve thanked God for it and declared it before it ever happened. Why? Because those are acts of faith. It shows God I believe before I can see. The Bible says we “walk by faith and not by sight.” Satan wants to steal our hope. So he tries to get us to focus on what we see and feel in the natural. However, God calls us to believe in the unseen. To know and trust that He already has what you need. Sometimes we have to go through a process to receive it in the natural because God is refining us, teaching us, and strengthening our faith.
If you’ve been praying and believing for something and it hasn’t come to pass yet, don’t give up. Keep asking, seeking, and knocking. Use your power and authority over the enemy to crush fear, impatience, and hopelessness. Focus on the truth that ALL of God’s plans for you are good and therefore He will provide what you need and give you the desires of your heart if they align with His.
