Peace Be Still!

You have done so much work. You have been diligent in the preparation of getting closer to your destiny. You can smell success lingering in the distance. The feeling of anxiety is growing so great that you can't stand it any longer.


Then you wait. And wait. And wait. Still nothing. What is taking so long, you wonder. My harvest should be here by now. Have I done something wrong? And you wait.


Eventually you begin to see yourself dwindle. You faith is wavering and your hope is now, almost non existent.


Weeks have turned to months and months have turned to years. 'Surely I have taken a wrong path. I see no return on my sowing and hard work'.


The thing you were once passionate about seems as if it has become hard work. 'God what is going on? Why has my situation not changed?'


Statements of faith and assurance have become questions laced with doubt. Doubt then turns to fear. Fear that what you believed will never be.


It has become a nightmare turned reality. Once where there was rest and peace, now lies sleepless nights and the gut bending need to want to speed up time just to get to the breakthroughs of life that you longed for.


Now here you are, years later. Fighting for hope and tugging at God's hand for a glimpse of time. The exact time frame that things will start looking in your favor.


What do you do now? You keep standing! Keep believing. Keep hoping and declaring God's word over your life and know that he does not lie.


Your hard work will not be in vain. The greatness in you will be seen. You are a conqueror and you will make it through this. This too (this season) will pass! And you will begin to see the manifestations of God in your life.


Embrace the process and know that everything will work in your favor, but in his timing. Be anxious for nothing. You can not and will not lose. Fear has no hold over you because someone greater than you knows your path.


The path is the plan. And his plan is to prosper you and not harm you. You can make it. You will make it! And when it comes you will be ready for the promise (inheritance).


You will be mature and complete, not lacking anything. YOU ARE GREAT! You are a winner! And you already have the victory!


So when doubt and fear and anxiety try to creep up on you, you say to that storm "Peace be still".
