December 29, 2014
When people have someone lying in the hospital
theatre going through surgery, whether the procedure lasts for ten hours or
twenty four hours, they keep waiting since the surgeons aren’t done yet. I have
a word for someone today that even as we are getting closer to the end of 2014,
I’d like you to know that God hasn’t finished with you yet.
Sometimes we feel there really isn’t any future
again. We look back at the mistakes we have made and then we conclude that it’s
all over – ‘God is done with me.’ Sometimes we feel our greatest days are
behind us and as such we start living life as it comes hoping that maybe
someday, things will get better. But let me assure you this morning that your
happiest days, greatest days, lie ahead. I guarantee you that!
Jonah must have thought God was done with him when
the fish swallowed him after he had successfully disobeyed God, but he didn’t know
that God was using all of that to shape him up for what was ahead. I don’t know
what you are going through, but I’d like to let you know that your case file is
still before God – it isn’t closed yet. God is still working on your matter. Jacob
felt bad when he heard that Joseph was dead. At that point he must have been
the most miserable man in Israel.
However, one day, another news came that the dead
boy was now alive. Maybe your business died sometimes ago, or that dream of yours
has since been buried, or the doctor has said your case has no remedy, listen, I
stand upon the word of God this morning to proclaim to you that there is hope
for a tree that if it be cut down, it shall sprout again. Sir/ma, you are still
in the race. Your best is yet to come. Don’t dare give up.
Keep on holding on!
