Waiting on God's Promises

How can we know God's plans in our lives? Are we waiting for the promises ? Do we forget His mercies , seeing the current situations? Here are two things to know!

Your current situation is not all. Things will change.

Yea. Its easy to say that. So hard to accept this when we are going through tough situations. We see someone in our shoes in the scriptures. Naomi!

Having lost, her husband and her only two sons, what hope could have been left to remain in her heart? We can read all about this in Ruth chapter 1. But God had a greater blessing for her through her daughter-in-law Ruth, in whose lineage came king David and thus Jesus Christ. Surely the mention of her name in Bible, takes its place.

Who knows? The trouble which you are going through at present may take you to any height. May be not immediately, but surely you will look back to see.

Waiting for a promised blessing is not easy. But still not impossible

You know the hype God gave Joseph. What an young age! What a dream!! In flesh I say the envy of their brothers is not an injustice. God promised him in his dream that everyone else will bow down before him, this little fellow. Was his dream fulfilled immediately? This dreamer was looking for a crown. Came only furies, pit, slavery, prejudice and prison. Burst of balloons?? Not really. Yea, the path was hard. If you read closely, in all these tribulations, the Bible says 'God was with Joseph'. You can read the word of God saying this repeatedly!

You know what after prison. He became the no. 2 in Egypt. He was responsible to feed the entire bereaved nation and the neighbours during the great famine.

Yea, promises will come true. It will take its time. But surely the word of God will not fall to ground without accomplishing its purpose.
