DON’T GIVE UP - IT WILL HAPPEN!

Galatians 6:9 So let’s not grow tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.

If you’ve ever waited for something for a long time you’ll know the joy and excitement of when it actually arrives or happens. It was so worth the wait wasn’t it? It’s a hurrah moment!😊

Months ago a lady gave me some cosmos plants to say thank you for finding and returning her Iphone. Well I planted them and they grew huge - but no flowers to be seen! I waited and waited, it looked hopeless and thought about digging them up. Finally there it was this week, out of the blue, after storms and rain battering them - my first flower! A hurrah moment!


A similar thing happened with a friend who my daughter sent some stick insect eggs to
months ago. She waited and waited, nothing seemed to be happening, they looked like little black seeds with no life in them, then suddenly out popped a stick insect at long last! She was thrilled she hadn’t given up on them. Another hurrah moment!


I wonder have you been waiting and waiting for something from God? You feel like it should have blossomed by now, that the seeds of faith should be producing what you’re believing for and you’ve become discouraged. It all looks hopeless, looks like nothing is happening? 

Well I’m here today to tell you to hang in there. You’re right in the middle of our verse doing good, believing, standing in faith, and God says if you’ll not grow weary you’ll reap a harvest. 

Jesus was on His way to heal a little girl when He heard the report that she had died, but He said to Jairus ‘Only believe’. He didn’t say “only believe but if it doesn’t look like it’s happening or it looks like it’s too late just give it up!” No! He said “Don’t be afraid. Only believe!”

If  you’ve asked and believed for something God has promised you then it is on its way. God’s timing is not our timing but it is on time! Your hurrah moment is coming, your prayer of faith is being answered. Concentrate on the promise, not the time it’s taking - what God has said He will do - He will do! Healing is on it’s way, finances are coming, whatever it is you’re believing for, don’t give up - it will happen.😊 

Mark 5:36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, He said to the ruler of the synagogue, “Do not be afraid, only believe.”
