TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

“And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”
(Galatians 6:9, NKJV)

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria

I’d love to tell you that if you stay in faith, if you believe, then God will always answer your prayer within 24 hours, or at least within the first week. But we know that’s not reality. God promises He will be true to His word, but He never puts a timeframe on it. In fact, He tells us that we need patience to see the promises come to pass. Sure, it would be a lot easier if God told us when we were going to get well, when we would meet the right person, or when our child would straighten up. But the truth is, that wouldn’t take any faith. It takes faith to say, “God, I don’t know when You are going to do it, but I trust You enough to believe that You will do it, that the answer is already in my future.”

Today and every day let this be your prayer: “God, give me the grace to accept Your timing.” That means you’re asking for God’s strength, His supernatural empowerment to stand strong while you are waiting. Choose to keep believing, choose to praise Him, and choose to accept His timing knowing that He is faithful and has untold blessings in store for your future!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, thank You for Your hand of favor, blessing and mercy on my life. You are good and faithful. Because of that I trust You. I trust Your love, and I trust Your timing in Jesus’ name. Amen.

— Joel & Victoria Osteen

As we trust in Jesus’ timing Lord, strengthen the hands which hang down and the feeble
Knees.
Make straight paths for our feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated but rather be
healed
In all and everything Lord, We thank you. Your time is the ‘Best’

Are there no other spiritual sponsors other than Joel & Victoria?
Can’t you ask Dan Pule, Never Mumba, Rev. Shikapwasha or Fr. Bwalya for some spiritual inspirations?

God of love and compassion. Teach us to love as you have loved us. Teach us to be faithful and never to doubt you. Our plans are not your plans. You have made each of us in your own image. You knew us before we were born. We are a living testimony of your power and might. In you we live, in you we shall be free………………………
