Genesis 17:17 (NKJV) 17 Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, “Shall a child be born to a man who is one hundred years old? And shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?”
This is something to be excited about! Abraham having a child at the age of 100 and Sarah at 90. That is truly amazing!
When God tells us what He wants to do with us or for us, it can sometimes blow our minds and maybe even cause us to burst out laughing. Not in a bad way or in a mocking way, but just in a WOW way, bringing great JOY to us.
Sometimes it is so exciting that we want to help move it along more quickly, and we get feeling like maybe we need to do something to help. Or we get feeling anxious or fearful that it may never happen, so we try to make sure it does.
Just a little reminder; God is faithful! He knows what needs to happen before it comes to pass.
Some of us may need to be corrected in some areas.
Some of us may need our circumstances to change before our answer can come.
Some of us may need to let go of certain things, maybe even friends or relationships, etc., before God can complete His work in our situation.
Some of us may need to get our priorities in order first, before He can make His move.
And all of these things can take time to happen.
God knows what needs to be done. He has the timing and the plan in His hands. Instead of trying to make it happen on our own, we need to be prayerful, watchful and follow His steps, every day. Don’t worry or think about when and how it’s going to happen. Just let it come to pass.
As we trust Him and do this we will see Him move on our behalf.
