There are many instances that almost everything in your life appears unpromising. Other times nothing will work out the way you will like it to work out. As humans, we have very limited sight and for that reason, we cannot see what the future holds and that alone can at times cause you to lose hope. I want to encourage you to keep your hope and your trust in God and have faith in His abilities. It’s ok that you don’t know what the future holds because you serve the one who orchestrates the future and He has your very best interest at heart. God gave Abraham and Sarah a gift that was beyond their reach and their imagination. He definitely has something great planned for you. Though everything may be out of place at this very moment in your life know that you serve the living God and everything will work out.
God gave Abraham everything when he had nothing in sight when nothing looked promising God came in and changed his entire destiny. He went from being childless to fathering offsprings as many as the stars! Do not put your focus on the things going around and in your life, rather set your gaze on the Lord and do not lose sight of Him. He has a plan for you but you need to be ready to obey everything He says to you and walk in that obedience!! We have to be ready to take a step of faith with the Lord and do as He says Ama god where He leads. Do not look at your circumstances or even your limitations but rather look to God, He is more than able and is always ready to stand up for you.
Genesis 15:4-5 NIV “Then the word of the LORD came to him: “This man will not be your heir, but a son who is your own flesh and blood will be your heir.” He took him outside and said, “Look up at the sky and count the stars—if indeed you can count them.” Then he said to him, “So shall your offspring be.”
