You are still waiting for what God has promised you. What looks like a delay is God preparing the final touches to what is coming your way. Don’t give in to the lingering discouragement in the air trying to plant “seeds” of doubt and hopelessness. Rest assured that some things take a little longer to birth. You are in the middle of birthing what seems like a “forever labor.” You have been “pushing” and “pushing” yet still no “baby.”
The contractions have increased as you await your final push to delivery! It feels like this time will never end, but it will!
Your “delivery date” is right on time!
Like a new mother in labor, although she has never physically seen her child in person, she knows soon she will after the labor. She knows she must endure the hard push and pain before receiving her baby. Although you have never seen your promises in the physical, you know in the spiritual they are awaiting to be birthed at the right time. Push through the resistance, the opposition, and discouragement so that you can focus on what is coming.
Submit yourself to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. James 4:7
Whatever the enemy is trying to throw at you, resist him! You know what God spoke to you. Keep expecting. Keep anticipating. The Lord knows you are wondering if it will ever happen. Don’t entertain thoughts of hopelessness. It is hard to hope when you have been disappointed multiple times before. Don’t close the door in your heart to hope.
Don’t try and figure out what your “delivery” will look like. Begin enjoying your life as you wait for what is to come, for surely, it’s coming. Put all your hope and expectation on the Lord. For He surely is good, and He does have good gifts to bestow to His children. Your years of lack and want are coming to a sudden end. The tears that you have sowed over the many years, will be transformed into a beautiful flowering garden where blooms will abound. What was seemingly dead in your life will come alive again suddenly. The graveclothes are coming off, and you will leap will joy like an expecting mother would.
You will give “birth” multiple times this time without any “stillbirths” or “miscarriages.” You will carry these “babies” to full-term. Although you may have not had the biological children that you so desired, God is birthing life all around you and many will feed from this life. Spiritual children will arise out of your lifeless womb.
