HIS TIME NOT OURS

God, time is the right time. At the right time, Christ was born. At the right time, He died. At the right time, He pulled us out of the pit of darkness.  We should not run ahead of God's timing 

1 Peter 5:6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

So, if your prayer request has not been answered, maybe it's not time yet. Maybe there's a lesson that comes with the blessings you need to learn. Maybe God is trying to redirect you or remove something or someone from your life. God is not slow to fulfill His promise as we count slowness. But

He's patient toward us, hoping we will receive Him, as well as the blessings. 

Father, we pray that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be made for all people.  Lord, baptize us in the Holy Spirit, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. Let our time in study and prayer, give wisdom and knowledge that helps us be pleasing in Your sight.  For we know, there is one God, and there is one mediator between You and men, Christ Jesus. So, we come before You with the willingness to confess our sins and acknowledge how much we need You.  Lord. Strengthen our faith and help us overcome our unbelief, give us a strong desire to spend more time with You in study, prayer, worship, and praise. Let us not get weary of doing good because, in due time You will, keep Your promises, and we will reap our harvest; in Jesus' name Amen.
