Topic :It Can Never Be Late With God.
Memory Verse :Genesis 21:1. God visited Sarah exactly as he said he would; God did to Sarah what he promised:
Bible Reading : Genesis 21:5-7 MSG. Key Verse : v6.
Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born. Sarah said,God has blessed me with laughterand all who get the news will laugh with me! She also said,Whoever would have suggested to Abrahamthat Sarah would one day nurse a baby!Yet here I am! I’ve given the old man a son! .
Here we see God keep his word in the life of his servant Abraham and his wife Sarah. God had called Abraham out of his father’s house and kindred to the unknown world and unfamiliar terrain, a place God promised to show him. He obeyed the voice of the Spirit, not knowing exactly the particular place God was taking him to. The reason God couldn’t tell him details of his journey at the beginning was because God was looking for a life of deep fellowship and relationship with Abraham. He needed to depend on God continously for the next move of his life. If the entire map of his movement was given Abraham from the beginning, the major thing he will need to navigate the terrain will be his intellect. But God designed man to depend on him, therefore he will keep us at a level where we will always depend on him in taking major decisions of life. “God told Abram: “Leave your country, your family, and your father’s home for a land that I will show you. I’ll make you a great nationand bless you.I’ll make you famous;you’ll be a blessing.” Genesis 12:1-2.
The Lord kept his promises in the life of his servant Abraham. He was blessed with riches and wealth, even Lot who followed him as his nephew became rich and blessed to a point where their servants had issues pasturing their herds, to a point where they needed to part ways for peace to reign. Abraham had everything that made life good from God’s presence, but there was no child from his loins. Despite divine assurance and promises he had to wait for 25 good years for Isaac to be born. At the right time God visited Abraham in the plains of Mamre, where they related as friends. While spending time with Abraham and his wife, God told Abraham that it was time for Sarah to conceive. It sounded unbelievable, but the word of God came to fulfilment. “One of them said, “I’m coming back about this time next year. When I arrive, your wife Sarah will have a son.” Sarah was listening at the tent opening, just behind the man. Abraham and Sarah were old by this time, very old. Sarah was far past the age for having babies. Sarah laughed within herself, “An old woman like me? Get pregnant? With this old man of a husband?”” Genesis 18:10-12.
Because it was God’s time, the mistakes of Abraham who thought he could have a child his own way, the doubts, unbelieving laughter and denials of Sarah couldn’t stop God. When Isaac finally landed as promised by God, the laughter of Sarah became louder and contagious because she was amazed by the deeds of the Almighty. At this point of the year, when we are into the last month and it’s just a matter of weeks and days before the year winds up, God is about to fulfil that which he had spoken concerning you. The Lord is about to visit you just as he did to Sarah to take away every reproach and replace them with testimonies. Whatever you can believe God for between now and 31st of this month is possible by divine visitation. “It seemed like a dream, too good to be true,when God returned Zion’s exiles. We laughed, we sang,we couldn’t believe our good fortune.We were the talk of the nations—”God was wonderful to them!”” Psalms 126:1-2.
Prayer : Thank you Father God because no man following you fails in life. Thank you for your promises over my life can never fail. Thank you because my expectation in you won’t be cut short. Thank you because of testimonies that will make me laugh and rejoice in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Ephesians 6:10-20.
