Speaker 1 (00:00):
In my clothes remarks. I'm going to share it with
you something I've had to learn. Okay, you know, I
decided last year that I was going to trust in
God's timing. And in making the decision to trust in
God's timing, what I was doing was I was saying,
I know that I have a plan, and I know

(00:22):
I have goals and aspirations, but I wanted to be
done as long as it's in line with God's will.
So I made that a mission in twenty twenty four
and I was doing really well with that for a while,
but I hit a spot where I really wanted something

(00:43):
to happen immediately. Now I want you to know something
that immediately that I wanted it to happen was back
in September. It's almost end of January now and it
still hasn't happened. But remember, now, I had resigned myself

(01:03):
to truck in God's timing. Any time you would to
do better or become better or become more faithful, there's
going to be a test to see if you really
are committed to that. And I got to tell you something.
I'm being tested right now. You may be under the

(01:27):
same test. So what I'm learning, and what I'm sharing
with you right now is stay the course. What I've
learned about trusting in God's timing is I've really learned
that his timing and my timing ain't ever the same.
That's been the tough one for me, because I've set

(01:51):
up here and said, you know what, God, it just
seemed to me like it was gonna happen. You come
on and make this happen, because you see me down
here and I'm struggling a bit with this whole thing,
and you know what, something just keeps telling me it's
just the test of your faith. And keep trusting in
my timing because when I make it happen, it's going

(02:12):
to be better than the way you wanted it to happen.
But I gotta tell you something, y'all, it's hard to
do that. And then the devil comes into play, because
the devil's mission is to rob you of your destiny.
So then here comes the devil. It ain't meant to be.
The answer is no, do something else, change your plans,

(02:36):
give up, lose your faith. He ain't listening to you,
he don't hear you. And that's the devil's job. And
the devil wins so many times, man, because we just
get tired of waiting. But if you stay the course,

(02:57):
God has never been too late, as trying, as testing
as this moment is for me. I'm okay, I'm still healthy,
I still keep waking up in the morning. I still
got hopes and dreams and aspirations. My blessings are in abundance.
I mean, man, if you write down everything God has

(03:18):
done for you and everything God is doing for you,
it's really overwhelmeding. Now. I know the thing you want
might not be happening at the time you want it
to happen, and I know that feeling because it's happening
to me now. But don't you know he coming, man,
But the fact that you still have stuff that you're
aiming for, that's a blessing. Man. Do you know how

(03:41):
many people have just given up, lost hope, ain't got nothing.
If you can wake up and still hope, if you
can wake up and still have aspirations, if you can
wake up and still want to make it no matter
how it looks, you still want to get there, that's
a blessing, y'all. If you are waking up and you

(04:03):
still holding on that's a blessing, y'all. If you're waking
up and you have managed somehow to muster the stript
to put your clothes on, get out of bed, and
go ahead on anyhow, that's a blessing, y'all. If you
have muscled up the strift to put another footstep in
front of the other one, that's a blessing, y'all. Don't
let the devil fool you. You're doing the things that's

(04:26):
necessary to make it. And it might not be happening
for you right now, but that don't mean it ain't happening.
For all you know and have you've learned in your past,
God is in the background making moves on your behalf now.
The reason it ain't happening right now because God is
working some things out. Because when you ask God for something,

(04:48):
you gotta remember it ain't just you. It's a whole
lot tied to you. It's people that's got to be blessed.
It's people that's got to hear it, people have got
a co sign off on it. It's people that's gonna
benefit from it. And sometimes God holds us up because
God saw things you didn't see. God heard conversations you

(05:09):
didn't hear, and God got to show somebody. He teaches
somebody else a lesson, but he using you to get
it done. And the reason he using you because he
know he can trust you, but because he know you
got the strength to endure, because you've shown it to
him time and time again. God only uses the strong
to make demonstrations to the weak. And God takes you

(05:31):
in your weakest moment where you have to then require
on him and depend on him one thousand percent, and
then He show up and he show out. So keep
your faith, y'all, no matter how dark or daunting it
might seem, keep your head up and keep your faith,
because I promise you God is working on your behalf.
He is man, he really is. And I'm talking to

(05:55):
myself right now because I know He got to be
working on my behalf because it's out of mind hands.
And let me tell you something, when the decision that
has to be made is out of your hands and
you to turn it over to God, you can't put
it in no better hands than his. Keep the faith,
keep moving on, keep praying, and stay prayer for stay faithful.

(06:15):
God got you. Those are my closes remarks today. Hey,
y'all have a good one here. Talk to God today.
You would have here. I appreciate you say I need.
