I read Joel's devotional this morning and the word suddenly came into my spirit. I've always liked the word suddenly because in an instance God can turn things arounds..it doesnt matter the circumstances, the people involved...God can turn any situation around. What can seems like a lengthy period of time is not in God's eyes ..his timing is unlike ours. So I'm reminded to be patient...reminded that God is in control and that he knows each of our situation. Eventhough it feels like we cant go on ...we can because of the strength God has provided us. We have to dig deep and find the joy. We have to dig deep and rememeber it wont always be like this.God has allowed us to stay wherever for a reason and when the time is right suddenly he will move. So today I lift up my family, friends, and myself to rememeber we have a Suddenly God. To remember God has no limitations. He can move us and anything according to his purpose in his timing. God heard our cries and we are not forgoten.
Joel's Devotional:
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Your threshing season will overlap with the grape harvest, and your grape harvest will overlap with the season of planting grain. You will eat your fill and live securely in your own land”
(Leviticus 26:5, NLT)
TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
I believe we are living in a day and age when God is accelerating His work in our lives! I believe that what used to take days, weeks and even years in times past, God will do in an instant in this day and age. In an instant, you can receive your breakthrough. In an instant, you can be promoted on your job. In an instant, you can receive your healing. In an instant, your relationship can be restored. In an instant, that child can change their ways.
Today, believe that God will take you further than you ever thought possible, faster than you ever thought possible. Trust that your times are in His hands. Know that He is working behind the scenes on your behalf. Just like in the days of old, God will accelerate your seasons, and He will thrust you into the blessing and victory He has prepared for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, thank You for Your faithfulness in my life. Thank You for working behind the scenes on my behalf. I trust that my times are in Your hands. I know that You have a good plan for my future, so I open my heart and put my faith and trust totally in You. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
