August 29 “In His Time…” Ecclesiastes 3:11
Good morning from Pastor Glen Brock, Baptist Tabernacle Church, Wendell, North Carolina… “He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.” (Ecclesiastes 3:11)
When we are in the midst of struggles and trials and “Storms of Life,” it is difficult to envision how circumstances will end! In today’s environment, with rampant hatred and acts of Evil motivated violence and Satanic control and, seemingly, arrogant and ignorant responses to this Evil, how are we to envision an outcome that is positive and pleasant? In spite of how things appear, God promises that He will make “All Things Beautiful In HIS Time!” We view all of this insanity and difficulties and Evil in light of the moment and we have a “Temporal” view of life; however, God views EVERYTHING in the LIGHT OF ETERNITY!! God knows what we are going through and He knows what we are experiencing and He offers, through the Blood of Jesus Christ, Hope, Peace and a Holy Perspective. As TRUE BELIEVERS, we have an assurance of VICTORY and we have a PROMISE of ETERNITY and, from God’s perspective, HE HAS ASSURED US THAT “HE HAS MADE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL IN HIS TIME! Regardless of the challenges and regardless of the trials, remember that we have VICTORY over all of this craziness through our FAITH in JESUS and HIS SUSTAINING POWER. Allow the HOLY SPIRIT to lead, guide and keep you through this journey and be assured, that HE will SEE US THROUGH! KEEP LOOKING UP…We are only here, for a season and then, we will be with HIM IN GLORY! I say this again, so that you will understand, I am the son of the King, who is not moved by the world. For my God is with me and He goes before me, I DO NOT FEAR BECAUSE I AM HIS! Lastly, THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME, I AM JUST PASSING THROUGH! When we recognize the temporal nature of these worldly issues and we recognize the promises of God, then we can flourish and walk in victory, because of His Promise to “MAKE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL IN HIS TIME! Stay Strong, Stay Focused…Remember, THE BEST IS YET TO BE!
