Embracing your Breakthrough!
Habakkuk 2:2-3 ESV
And the Lord answered me: "Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it. For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay.
EMBRACING YOUR BREAKTHROUGH!
Life is a big maze, at times, we feel we have attempted to use every path but none have led to the happy ending, that exit door we seek...
Do you ever feel this way?
Do you ever feel lost and discouraged in the midst of the maze?
You are not alone, we all feel the same.
The solution is to realize that not everything is within our control and to first seperate what we control( our reactions) from what we do not control (our circumstances)
Yes it's easier as a concept than it is in reality, however, if we must find a way out, first lets agree that ,most things in life ,are not easy anyways!
We must embrace each setback, difficulties, obstacles and time of mourning with a look at the future in mind.
For example ,when we were children, we dreamed of becoming adults and be free of the rules imposed by the adults in charge of us, it seemed to be a long wait, today we dream to go back to a time with fewer responsibilities and more freedom.
Eventually, every bad moment and bad feelings becomes the past.
Prior to it, how to address the present?
By embracing every positive thing within reach, read a good book, watch a good movie, speak with amazing people, exercise, eat what you love, drink what makes you smile, sleep an entire day, get into a bubble bath, do whatever makes you feel happy and accumulate moments of happiness.
You can't fast forward your life, you can only enhanced its quality by the input you wisely pick.
Prayer is made to assist you, tell God everything , talk about how difficult certain things are, talk about how no one understand you, express your feelings until you feel you have talked about everything, ask God for victory and thank him in advance.
Then go do what you love, be nice to people around you, help anyone you can and as time flies while you are busy praying, helping and enjoying life in the midst of your situation, God is busy solving your problem.
Habakkuk 2:2-3 ESV
And the Lord answered me: "Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it. For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay.
God is saying write on a paper how you imagine your life in victory, and even if it has not happened yet it will happen.
When God said: so he may run who reads it.
He means so that your problem will run away from you.
When God said:For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie
It means God has the perfect timing, it may not fit in your timeline, But God will make the perfect solution for a perfect time. It is a promise.
Do not get discouraged when you wait and it seems very long, Proverbs 3 says not to lean on our own understanding.
When the doctor provides a prescription most of the time we either don't understand the handwriting or we don't understand the content, the names are very complex and out of the ordinary.
We Trust it will heal us, we trust that the pharmacist will give us exactly what is written and we buy it right?
This means that we are not leaning on our own understanding rather on the experts in the field ( doctor, pharmacist)
When it comes to timelines, do the same, trust God, the expert in the field.
All that matters is the result, we don't need to know everything, but only one thing, all will work out ,God never lies, and God promises, that it will come to pass.
Embrace your breakthrough by Trusting God with his timeline to solve your problem, praying, helping others, and being happy and busy while you wait for the breakthrough.
