All who have experienced receiving a word from the Lord and a special promise from Him knows the fulfillment will take a long time. We have to learn and grow and touch the cross in order to receive what He is planning to give us. The wait can be excruciating.
Every time I hear the words in God's time, tears fill my eyes, because my friend and I have been waiting for sixteen years for the promise. It is yet to be fulfilled.
In the sixteen year journey, I have learned a lot about how the Lord deals with his children. If He gives us a special knowledge of the future and what part we would play in His Divine Plan, He expects us to surrender are desires and that sounds easy, but it isn't. He would like to fill us so completely that we become nothing so He can become everything in us. People would notice a light emanating from our being and they would be attracted to us and want what we have. We could then talk about the Gospel, the Good News for mankind. He died, suffered and was buried, but he rose again. And if we put our faith in Him we will be covered by His blood, and receive our inheritance.
Waiting on God - The Vision - the Promise - the Fulfillment
A Journey: full of blessings and lessons, hardships and suffering
The above is the title of a short book that I will be writing in the near future. We have yet to see the fulfillment.
Waiting for the promise to be fulfilled has been my life for the last sixteen years. Wait, Wait, not yet!
He will bring it to fruition at the proper time. God works when we pray. I have been praying a long time for this to happen. Praise God.
