Daily Devotional

Habakkuk 2:3 KJV

"For the vision is yet for an appointed time…though it tarry, wait for it"

God has an appointed time to fulfill the visions, dreams, and desires in your heart. Just because it has taken a long time or because you've tried and failed, doesn't mean it's not going to happen. Don't give up on those dreams! Don't be complacent about pursuing what God has placed in your heart. Our God is a faithful God. No matter how long it's been, no matter how impossible things looks, if you'll stay in faith, your appointed time is coming.

Remember, every dream that's in your heart, every promise that has taken root, God put it in there. And not only that, but He has every intention of bringing it to pass. Hold on to that vision today by declaring, "My time is coming. God is working behind the scenes on my behalf. I will fulfill my destiny!" As you continue to hold on to that vision and speak life over your dreams, you'll see them begin to take shape. You'll see your faith grow, you'll see your hope strengthen, and you'll see yourself step into the destiny God has prepared for you!

A Prayer for Today:

"Father in heaven, I receive Your truth today. I receive Your promises today. I ask that You ignite my heart with Your holy fire so that I can pursue Your perfect plan for my life. Make my thoughts and words agreeable to Your will. In Jesus' Name. Amen."

Reading Job this morning I had to sit back and think a moment,  what Job was complaining about was really true, some of the rich and sinful seem to go on with life prospering, living the rich full life, nothing happening to them but are they happy? Do they have happiness in what they do?  We all know in the end where they will be unless they ask Jesus into their heart and are forgiven.  No riches on this earth is worth missing out on that.  I know as a child of God that He wants us to prosper; He wants us to live a fulfilling life in Him.  The bible says we can IF we hold His commandments in our heart and obey them.  I truly believe God wants to prosper us in all areas of our lives but I know too He wants us to use our prosperity to further His kingdom, not only financially but in ALL areas.  In Proverbs there’s an example of how if we live according to His word what will happen.  Proverbs spoke volumes to me this morning, especially verse 4, True humility and fear of the Lord
      lead to riches, honor, and long life. 

God has so much for us if we only heed to His wonderful Word.
