The Promised Land

[songz777]

How many times in life have we uttered those words “How much longer Lord”?

The children of Israel were in the desert for a short season of much testing, and countless times they didn’t trust God.

Surely how much more quickly would their trial have past if they had trusted God and soon the day of glory of the promised land would have come.

We to are like this:

Many of us have a promise from God, but He is greatly trying and testing us. Not once but it seems, time and time again. How often we may say “Lord when will you finally believe that I love and trust you” and “when will that promise come true”?

How many times have I been tested over and over again concerning a promise and still I must wait?

Yet, it is the testing that brings us close to God and God shows us glimpses of His glory and beauty, and thus we fall face down in awe of Him.

God says “Don’t give up on Me and don’t throw away that hope you have in me, the promised land will come in My time”

The promises I have made to you will happen, don’t give up and loose faith in Me.

Gods promises always come true, and when we are tempted to give up we must fall at His feet and seek His power to carry on, for He surely will help us.

Thank you, thank you, Song, for this post. It was exactly what I needed right now. A reminder that God is still working this out in me, and what He promised years ago will come to pass. Lord, forgive me for self-pity and stubborness. Continue to teach me in the desert.

Ditto!

John 16:33
I've told you all this so that trusting me, you will be unshakable and assured, deeply at peace. In this godless world you will continue to experience difficulties. But take heart! I've conquered the world."

I have found lately after waiting a long time...that I am forgetting what it is I am waiting for. Also feel like letting go of what I was seeking the Lord for...are any of you just "tired?"
