Same God Right Now!

Sometimes I am tempted to doubt that God will deliver. Maybe this blessing isn't for me. Perhaps I read God wrong. We know that God has a good plan for our success and our future but like Moses and the Israelites, we are doubtful and verly concerned about, well....stuff.

For example,  I was very concerned about finishing my degree. I didn't have the money by the deadline. Period. Point blank. I cannot finish my degree if I don't pay the school. God? What's the plan?

In another instance, my married friend was troubled with her marriage.  I prayed for her but, again like Moses, the situation only got worse. What now God?

Lastly, I am trying to minister for the Lord as He has instructed, but my resources are limited and the help is not coming. God, where is the supply for my need? Is this really what you want me to do?

After reading Exodus 6 & 7, I am encouraged. Not only do I know the end of this story but I can relate to the children of Israel who doubt their deliverance and to Moses who doubts his leadership capabilities.

It is hard to hear God's covenant promises when we are in any form of bondage, but because we do hsve a covenant relationship with Him, we can trust His word! God will never fail us. The Israrlites were doubtful and Moses fearful and so was I. Moses knew he was inadequate but God allowed him an explanation of His divine plan. Sometimes it's hard to believe even when God is doing just what He said and the plan is unfolding.

So, it turns out that I received the money for school after the deadline because God's timing is not man's timing. I'm still on track to finish. God literally made a way out of no way!

My friend's marriage is also on the mend now. He actually apologized!! Now you know that's God to move on a man's heart that way!

Finally, nothing less than a miracle has happened and the Lord is busy opening several doors for my ministry and is meeting the supply and above what we have asked. Won't He do it??!!

(Insert shouting music here)

God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all we ask or think. He us able to turn the tables in our favor! Even after I completed writing this blogpost, I was sure I erased it by mistake,  but it popped back up on my screen!! People listen, God. Will. Do. It!!

Be encouraged today about that seemingly hopeless problem, situation, money issue or relationship. I am here to let you know that I serve the same God is Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Moses! Same God right now, same God back then!

Lord, increase the faith of my subscribers and readers of this blog. You can and will do the impossible for us just as you have in the past. We will praise you in sdvance for open doors, miracles, success and favor in our lives, careers, ministry and homes. Hallelujah! There is none like You!

Amen

    Oh sis you are amazing! Thanks for sharing this. I share the same testimony with school at one point. God came through on the very last day! He restored my relationship and my family. I now look at God and everything and simply say, MY GOD!! Whew! You are so right and this is such a powerful message that must be shared!

    Love,

Lil Maurice Rated PG

Praise God! When I was a little tike, of about five years of age (1975). I guess I thought I was some kind of explorer or zoologist or something, because I used to go around searching for Moby Dick (the fictional whale). I can't remember hearing the story, and I know I didn't read the long novel. But I was obsessed with finding this creature. Which is kind of embarrassing when I think back on it. Somehow I got the idea that Moby Dick lived down in the sewer system, under the manhole covers. One summer day a friend and I, with our big afro's and bell-bottom pants, were playing at my house. My mother (RIP 1/8/50- 5/19/86) decided to take me and my friend with her so she could see her friend, who lived in another part of the hood. When we got there we sat on the front porch. The nice lady offered my friend and I some watermelon. After eating that, my friend and I went around to the back of the house, as my mother and her friend sat on the front porch talking. While...

Spousal Support in Bereavement - Missing Daddy

Image
We have been silent on this blog. We have been quietly holding each other up. This is why. Just a few years into our marriage, we lost Maurice's dad and on February 23rd my dad passed from earth to eternity. Some would say that we are now fatherless, but we beg to differ. My father - Arnold Lee Harden gave his life to Jesus Christ as a teenager and served in his local church. He then married, had three girls and became a deacon in his latter years. We know that life begins when we receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, so my dad is living his BEST life right now! I got that full revelation on Easter Sunday weekend. I was tempted to deeply mourn during the holidays, but then, I remembered that this year was my dad's first Easter with Jesus Himself - how glorious! All couples deal with death differently. When your spouse is hurting, how do you support them? Here are a few things that Maurice did for me. Letting Me Cry I do not think I have ever cried so much on my life. I c...

Becoming a Mother

Image
There was a time that I wondered if I would ever be a mother at all. After we got married in 2001, we waited for a few years and then we were pregnant with our first child in the spring of 2005. We were elated because we had finally saved enough to move out of our 1 bedroom apartment and become real homeowners!  Our happiness quickly took a turn for the worse just a few short months later when I began to have periods of cramping, then spotting. I had been working full-time throughout my pregnancy in rehab. It was heavy work, but I thought nothing of it. I was also very ignorant about heavy lifting while pregnant and monitoring my out-of-control mood swings. I took a lot of my frustration out on my husband. We had told our families and then we lost the baby to a miscarriage. Incompatible genes they told us. Incompatible?? Bind the Devil!! Now, I was no midwife or OB/GYN nurse, but I figured two healthy people could have a healthy baby together without complications. It's b...
