It’s Time

I have been standing on a promise that the Lord gave me for about a year now. After so much time it is hard to keep the faith that it is really going to come to pass. The other day He gave me a word, It’s Time. It was a very exciting word, but as a few days went by and nothing happened I started to wonder if that is what He really told me. During my 

Morning Prayer time I was asking Him if it was really Him that gave me the word, because nothing seemed to be changing or getting any better, and this is what he said.

When a woman goes into labor and her water breaks, she goes to the hospital. When the Doctor checks her and sees she is ready to start pushing he says it’s time. At that point it is time to start pushing. It can be very difficult and painful. The Doctor is there to guide you and let you know what to do. It is time to dig in deep and push with everything you have. Just like the Doctor helps you through the delivery, the Lord will guide you to your promise.

We have to be careful because a lot of times it is the darkest right before our breakthrough, and we are tempted to give up. Just like a baby the in the mother’s womb it is dark. As the baby comes down the birth canal it becomes brighter. When the baby is delivered there is light all around them.  It may look dark right now, but don’t give up. God has great things that are just around the corner. Just remember It’s Time!
