Topic: Harness The Force Of Patience
Devotional
Everyone goes through a time of isolation in different areas of life and we need to understand that God planned it, not to break us but to build us and prepare us for the great things He has in store for us.
Patience is not a passive word, rather, it is an active word.
We see it in the life of Joseph when he found himself in painful isolation in prison. He used that time, or rather; the Lord helped him to use that time to prepare for the exceeding fruitfulness that was waiting for him in Pharaoh’s court.
The Lord has spoken to us that great things are spoken concerning us and concerning you. He also said that it is going to be a time of His exceeding fruitfulness.
God was aware that the COVID-19 pandemic would occur, and He has made arrangements for you and I to be prepared during this time of self-isolation, and to step into exceeding fruitfulness after the pandemic.
Can you see that God has not changed His mind? Can you comprehend the fact that it is still going to be a time of exceeding fruitfulness for you, if you allow God to prepare you?
Think about that today and we will talk more tomorrow.
