2 Chronicles 29:36 Then Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced that God had prepared the people, since the events took place so suddenly.
I love it when good things happen suddenly and I think God is like that too because He's the God of the 'suddenlies'. Earlier this year we suddenly had a phone call from Australia to say our close family out there, who we hadn't seen for several years, were going to be coming to see us the following week! - it was a wonderful 'suddenly'. I had thought it would be impossible for them to all come to see us but nothing is impossible with our God and He can do the impossible suddenly!
Our verse talks about events that took place so suddenly and it was God who orchestrated them for the people. I believe He's lining up some 'suddenlies' for us too.
Acts 16:25-26 tells us that Paul and Silas were suddenly delivered out of the prison. Things looked hopeless for them but God had a suddenly!
Acts 2:1-2 says the Holy Spirit came suddenly and filled all the house they were sitting in. Sometimes God's suddenlies are huge and life changing!
They were wonderful 'suddenlies' full of blessing and release - I like those kinds of suddenlies don't you?!😊
In Isaiah 48:3 God says "I have declared the former things from the beginning; They went forth from My mouth, and I caused them to hear it. Suddenly I did them and they came to pass.
Maybe we've been waiting a long time for God's promises to be fulfilled, or for a prophecy to unfold and we've been a bit downhearted about it, but be encouraged because God wants us to know He has some of His special suddenlies lined up for us and to be looking for them.
Let's get ready to rejoice because God is about to do one of His suddenlies in our lives too.
Thank You Lord, help us to have believing hearts open to your sudden breakthroughs and blessings, to remember not one word of your promises has ever failed. Amen.😊
