There’s so many ways that GOD prepares us before HE promotes us.
When we pray specifics, HE may not answer those prayers exact. HE knows what we need, and will first help us build our character, so we can sustain the blessings HE has for us.
When we pray for peace, GOD will send you storms so that you can learn how to speak to your storms and create your own peace.
When we pray for wealth, HE may first send you poverty so that you can understand value, before blessing you with financial stability. HE also wants to make sure you can be trusted with the little before HE hands you greater.
You may have prayed for love, GOD will have us go through heartbreak first so that you understand it’s important to love yourself first before HE sends you the love you deserve.
When praying for wisdom, you may face problems that require you to figure out how to solve them. You may fail a few times but don’t worry there are blessings in the lessons.
Sometimes we may complain about traffic, about work or not wanting to go to work, having to cook, household chores or maintenance, spending time with our spouses or how they can feel needy or smothering or sometimes we may even complain about going to the gym. Just remember you once prayed for, a car of your own, a job to go to, food on our tables, our own home or a home of our own, a family, someone to love and be loved and the ability to work out or have the time, or desire to get healthy.
Don’t take for granted the nights you prayed to GOD, sometimes in tears, for the very things you are complaining about. There might be someone praying for exactly what you have been blessed with.
You see Brothers, GOD will always work everything out for our good. HE wants to know we are worthy of every answered prayer before HE answers them. So make sure you don’t forget those nights of prayers, because if GOD can give, HE sure can take it away.
