Today’s Scripture
…Lord, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will prepare their heart; You will cause Your ear to hear.”
(Psalm 10:17, NKJV)
Preparing for the Promise
In the Scripture, it says that God didn’t lead the Israelites by the shortest route to the Promised Land. He took them the long way on purpose because they were not prepared for war. God knew that if He would have taken them into the land too quickly, they would have been easily defeated. Their enemies were much bigger and much more experienced. So on purpose, God took them a longer route to protect them and strengthen them so that they could fulfill their destiny.
I’m sure they prayed many times, “God, we’re uncomfortable out here in the desert. Where’s our Promised Land?” But God didn’t answer that prayer, not because He was trying to make their lives miserable, but because He knew what was up in front of them. He had to prepare them to step into the fullness of their destiny.
In the same way, God has already laid out the plan for your life. He knows exactly what you need and when you need it. If you are in a difficult situation that’s taking longer than you hoped, know that God is preparing you. He is strengthening you. Stay in faith and keep praising Him as you move forward into the Promised Land He has for you!

Zambianz are so docile that they believe in religions that were created to brainwash them into forgetting their own history and beliefs as a conduit to siphon off your resources. I understand that poor people need some from of hope and religion offers this false hope. However Zambians take it too far. They are hypocrite thieves and yet claim to be Christian nation. Even my Swiss white wife thinks it’s a joke. To hell with your bible.instead give us verses on how we can develop our nation not verses from an old story book called bible
Amen
