Trust God’s Timing

“In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Phil 1:4-6 (NIV)

God is working. His purpose and plan will be accomplished. Satan cannot thwart God’s will. Even when you experience doubts, delays, and distractions, God is still fulfilling His agenda. God is sovereign. He rules and He reigns. God factors in our sin. God factors in the reality of demonic opposition. God is not surprised by our surprises.

God’s master plan includes you. It is God’s will for you to be saved, to grow spiritually, and to join Him in His redemptive activity. Jesus took on the full wrath of God for your sin so that you could be set free to have a vibrant love relationship with God in Christ. You were filled with the Holy Spirit at the moment of your conversion so that you could continue the ministry of Jesus on this broken planet.

God will complete the good work He began in you. What God starts, He always finishes! God is not through with you. You are still in the process of becoming who God has made you to be. God is molding you and shaping you into the man or woman of God He created you to be.

Will you allow God to continue His work in you so that He can accomplish His work through you? Are you willing to trust God’s timing? God knows where He wants you. God knows what the finished product of His character development in you looks like. God’s timing is perfect. Entrust your life to His care.

Pursuing God,

Sometimes we need to be reminded over and over again. I was feeling very unworthy and doubtful last Wednesday morning listening to my Bible study leader lecturing. She mentioned Phil 1:6 that happens to be my life verse. I felt God’s grace pour over me. Then Wednesday night, again. Then today. It’s like God is saying “Don’t forget that I am working in you, even when you don’t feel it is happening. I am here and I am not sleeping!!!”.
Thank you for your faithfulness in writing these devotionals. They are used by God to deliver a personal word to me very often.
Blessings,
Geri Collins
