Ecclesiastes 3:1
There is a purpose for God. He is not controlled by limitations of time. Time is His purpose.
In the fullness of time, He is revealed.
John 1:14
The Word became flesh. Jesus is the Word.
In Genesis, God spoke the world into existence.
The Ark of the Covenant represented the presence of God. It contained the Ten Commandments.
The Word of God is the presence of God.
Isaiah 55:8-9New International Version (NIV)
8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
John 10:27
27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
Romans 10:17
Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
Luke 19:41-44
41 As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it42 and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes. 43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side.44 They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another,because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.”
He is a covenant keeping God. He is faithful. He raised up the church for His glory.
Ephesians 5:15-17
15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise,16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.
Be watchful and alert to know the mind of God. God has a purpose for this time. He is in total and absolute control even though the world may be out of control. God is sovereign.
The evils of our day that caused sufferings and sorrows.
Will we still see God's provision and the miracles of God?
There is a will of God that no man can change and no demon can destroy.
Mark 13:31
31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Let the Word of God come through in your life no matter the circumstances or the situations that you're in.
Hebrews 3:8
8 do not harden your hearts
as you did in the rebellion,
during the time of testing in the wilderness,
Harden not your hearts like the Israelites.
2 Peter 3:4-18
4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.”5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6 By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.
11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives 12 as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.
14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. 15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.16 He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
17 Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure position. 18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.
According to His purposes and in His perfect timing, God is doing great things in impossible situations.
There is no lack in the kingdom of God. He wants to manifest Himself in us.
Genesis 18:10-14
10 Then one of them said, “I will surely return to you about this time next year, and Sarah your wife will have a son.”
Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him. 11 Abraham and Sarah were already very old, and Sarah was past the age of childbearing. 12 So Sarah laughed to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my lord is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
13 Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Will I really have a child, now that I am old?’ 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return to you at the appointed time next year, and Sarah will have a son.”
At the appointed time, the Kairos time, God will invade and overshadow your Chronos time and you shall have the miracle. God's timing prevails. No evil power and man can break the will and purpose of God.
God performs miracles in impossible situations.
He wants to give you a miracle today. The touch of God will heal you today.
