FORWARD, MARCH

 
 
Hebrews 11:39,40
 
"And all these, though commended through their faith, did not receive what was promised, since God had provided something better for us, that apart from us they should be made perfect." ESV
 
 
All of the great men and women of the Bible lived their lives looking forward to the Savior who would redeem them and bring eternal life. They did not see the promise in their lifetime. We live our lives looking back at the cross of our promised Savior. We all, ancient and present, look forward to the rest of the promise, when we will enter into His presence together. Let's keep looking ahead. The promise is about to be finalized.
 
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your great and precious promises. Even though we may not see it all come to pass in our lifetime, we know the fulfillment of Your promise is coming. Help us to remember that and keep looking ahead. In Jesus' name, Amen.

PERFECT TIMING

 
Habakkuk 2:3
 
"For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end--it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay." ESV 
 
We all have prayers we are still waiting for the Lord to answer. It's human to want to give up when answers don't come in our time frame. When we get our minds off when God should move, and focus on Him and His great plan, we see a much different picture. The answers we are waiting for are already on the way. They will come just at the right time, in just the right way, His way, not ours. We can count on it.
 
Heavenly Father, forgive us for becoming impatient when our prayers are not answered when we think they should be. Help us remember that You are in control, You are God, and You always hear us. We pray in the name of Jesus, Amen.
