"The Best is Yet to Come"
Many of us have bought the lie of Satan that our best days of
our lives are in the past, and we find ourselves saying, “Man, I remember those
days. Those were some good times. How I wish I could go back...”
Why do we think like that?
Because at times we feel that, “The floodwaters are up to our
neck. Deeper and deeper we sink into the mire, and we cannot find a foothold
because we are in deep water. We become exhausted from crying for help, our
eyes get swollen waiting for God to help us.
Our problems seem to outnumber the hairs on our head, and even
our own family pretend they don’t know us” (we’ve lost them)... and we feel
that God simply does not answer our prayers… (Psalm 69:1-4,8,16,17).
I know… I’ve been there. And king David has been there too. And
many others have as well. So what have we done?
1) We have chosen to praise the name of God in the midst of our
struggles (Psalm 69:30)
2) We have continued searching for Him because He promised to
answer our cry and redeem us from our tribulations (Psalm 69:32-34).
3) We have made God our refuge (Psalm 71:1).
4) We have kept a worship song in our lips throughout the day
(71:8).
5) We have come to understand and accept that things will
workout in HIS time, and not in OURS (71:14).
6) We have chosen to testify of His salvation (71:15).
Do you know why? Because the best is YET to come!
“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined
what God has prepared for those who love him!” (1 Corinthians 2:9).
So, my friend, I urge you to praise Him in the storm, search for
Him every single minute, make Him Your God, sing songs of worship throughout
the day, testify what He has done in your life, and then you will come to
experience that your best days no longer remain in the past!
Blessings!
