Learning From The Past Part IV
As a Christian in the new covenant, you don’t need a prophet to tell you the mind of God for your life, the Christ inside you will reveal all of God to you, because He is God. Our scriptural focus for today states – The son of the slave wife was born in a human attempt to bring about the fulfillment of God’s promise. But the son of the freeborn wife was born as God’s own fulfillment of his promise. {Gal 4:23 NLT}
The promises of God are as sure as His name and humans can be rest assured that if He(God) has said anything to any human, He(God) has the capacity to make it happen. Promising father Abraham and mummy Sarah a child at their old age when obviously mummy Sarah has gotten many ages above the menopause age, was truly something impossible in the human eyes. He who is not a man that He should lie, nor is He the son of man that He should repent, caused the covenant wife of father Abraham to bring forth a man child, who was a fulfilment of God’s unfailing promise to father Abraham and his wife.
We must realize as humans, that God’s promises are guided by His own time and not by human time and no human can induce God by any means to do something whose time has not yet come. At the wedding in cana of Galilee when they ran out of wine and Jesus’s mother knowing His ability, approached Him to say they have ran out of wine with the intention for Him to do something instantly to save that already embarrassing situation, but He said – My time has not yet come. These people were under intense pressure and shame was already steering them in the face yet Jesus said my time is not yet come.
As humans, we must learn how to know and wait for His time. It will be important to state that no matter how intense our pressures may be as humans, it cannot change His time. Hear this – The Lord kept his word and did for Sarah exactly what he had promised. {Gen 21:1 NLT}
He has the capacity to fulfill His word.
Have a Grace filled day – Good News awaits you.
