Delayed on Purpose_Yetunde Arise ebook 2021

not an easy task considering the large no of male
in his house and the pain that accompany being
circumstance at old age especially. Our ability to
promptly and completely run with God’s
instruction without the fear of what people will
say even when we don’t understand fully what
God is saying is key in overcoming delay in life.
Abraham was fully persuaded, he was not weak in
faith, he considered not his own body and Sarah’s
being old. He staggered not at the promise of God
through unbelief but was strong in faith giving
glory to God. Romans 4. Do not allow fear bring
logic into your faith process. Do not consider your
limitation in evaluating the word God has given
you. Like Paul, you must be able to say I know
whom I have believed and am persuaded that he
is able. 2 Timothy 1:4. No matter what you have
been through or how many times you have tried
and fail, never give up on God. He is ever faithful
and true. He is never too early; he is never too late
but He is always on time.
There are certain things God must cut away in
your life for you to be able to receive His promised
word over you. For some of us, that anger,
bitterness, stinginess, pride, gluttons, laziness,
doziness, unbelief...works of the flesh must be
done away with. For some others walking by your
senses, trusting that your help can only come from
your family and friends must be cut away. Like
Abraham we all must be circumstance in our
heart. We must get to that point that we will say
though he slays me yet will I trust you. Do not be
afraid of men laughing at you. You must be strong
in faith and express it by giving praise to God. Until
we get to that point that just like Esther, we will
be able to say if I perish, I perish but I won’t
disbelief God, that point of trusting irrespective of
whatever happen, then we are good to go.
DUE SEASON
Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the time
appointed I will return unto thee, according to
the time of life and Sarah shall have a son.
Genesis 18:14
To everything there is a season, and a time to
every purpose under heaven says Ecclesiastes 3:1.
If john had been born 300years before the birth of
Jesus Christ, how would he be able to fulfill His
purpose on earth which is primarily to prepare the
way for Jesus. God works in time in his dealing
with us. He will always return to you at the
appointed time. Please do not run faster than God,
it is dangerous. Wait on the Lord and be of good
courage, he will strengthen your heart. And also,
to him, a thousand years is like a day that is passed
before him. So, we must get this understanding
and try to view delay from His perspective.
