My last instruction from Papa
Trust, Watch and Wait
This is your best bet for now. If I were to tell you more, you may not be able to receive it.
So wait and let things unfold. You won’t be sorry.
About that problematic Monday
Be still
Be still
Be still
This was fun
The lid will be lifted when it’s time and there will be flow.
In the meantime, enjoy your discomfort, great things happen in great discomfort.
Persevere
Hebrews 10:35-36
“Do not, therefore, fling away your fearless confidence, for it carries a great and glorious compensation of reward. For you have need of steadfast patience and endurance, so that you may perform and fully accomplish the will of God, and thus receive and carry away [and enjoy to the full] what is promised.”
Hebrews 10:35-36 AMPC
It’s a mystery
Ecclesiastes 11:5
“Just as you cannot understand the path of the wind or the mystery of a tiny baby growing in its mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the activity of God, who does all things.”
Ecclesiastes 11:5 NLT
Waiting instructions
Psalm 37:3-5,7,23-24
“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you.
Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act.
The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand.
Once I was young, and now I am old. Yet I have never seen the godly abandoned or their children begging for bread.”
Psalms 37:4-5, 7, 23-25 NLT
Trust
Proverbs 3:5-7
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil.”
Proverbs 3:5-7 NKJV
My Father
Luke 1:37
“For with God nothing is ever impossible and no word from God shall be without power or impossible of fulfillment.”
Luke 1:37 AMPC
Wait for it
Habakkuk 2:3
“For the vision is yet for an appointed time and it hastens to the end [fulfillment]; it will not deceive or disappoint. Though it tarry, wait [earnestly] for it, because it will surely come; it will not be behindhand on its appointed day. [Heb. 10:37, 38.]”
Habakkuk 2:3 AMPC
Wait for it
Habakkuk in MSG
“..,This vision-message is a witness pointing to what’s coming. It aches for the coming—it can hardly wait! And it doesn’t lie. If it seems slow in coming, wait. It’s on its way. It will come right on time.”
Habakkuk 2:2-3 MSG
In Beautiful Summary
2 Corinthians 12:7-10 MSG
“…At first I didn’t think of it as a gift, and begged God to remove it.
Then he told me, My grace is enough; it’s all you need. My strength comes into its own in your weakness.
Once I heard that, I was glad to let it happen. I began appreciating the gift. It was a case of Christ’s strength moving in on my weakness. Now I take limitations in stride, and with good cheer…
I just let Christ take over! And so the weaker I get, the stronger I become.”
When he comes
Be kind, be warm and be encouraging. Smile, forget about yourself and focus on him. Make it a beautiful, memorable moment
On what to do right now
Don’t look at your capacity to receive this blessing, look at God’s immense capacity to give it to you.
You are worried because you think you need to go and pursue this gift but you don’t. It is being presented to you, all you need to do is sit still and receive.
One of those shocker words :)
We have surely arrived at a point where you know that this is actually going to happen? It is not a drill, it is not a test, he is not a forerunner and he is not a placeholder.
Be joyful in your expectancy for soon, sooner than you imagine, you will hold your babe.
A word of assurance
The most beautiful babies are born after the most difficult labours.
On the workability of it
The person that you are drawn to in Him is the person that he essentially is, not the optics
The person that He is drawn to in you is the person that you essentially are, not the optics.
So being yourself is all you need.
