If you read my previous blog, “It’s Already Done”, you know that for the past week or two I’ve been really anxious and quite weary. The Lord made me a promise and I’m learning to be patient and wait on the Lord. However, it seems as though I’ve allowed myself to get impatient and take things into my own hands –knowing I shouldn’t. I’ve allowed myself to second guess what God spoke and asked Him to reconfirm what He said and to lead my paths. Well lately, the Lord has been telling me that what He’s spoken is already done, but there’s a time and season for the manifestation of that promise to take place.

Though this was the case, God had a greater plan for David and sent Samuel to anoint David king over Israel. Although David was anointed King at such a young age, the manifestation of God’s spoken word over David’s life as King didn’t take place until many years later; as the Bible states he was appointed king over all of Israel at age 30.
As you see, when God speaks a word into your life, it’s already done; however, we’re now just waiting for the manifestation of that word to take place in our lives. God can anoint a new born baby to be a prophet, but doesn’t appoint that child to take its position as a prophet until there adult life. There’s a season for everything. The timing of our promises is in God’s hands. Wait on the Lord and trust Him. Don’t be anxious or weary in well doing. Trust and believe the Lord for whatever was spoken over your life and decree and declare the promises of God. God tells us to put Him in remembrance of His word (Isaiah 43:26). Do it. Doing so encourages and strengthens our faith when we confess God’s promises.
When Satan comes to tell you lies, take your authority as a Christian and bind Satans mouth in the name of Jesus. Silence him and don’t allow him to feed you lies because eventually you will begin to believe those lies and begin decreeing and declaring those lies over your life. Avoid this by defeating Satan and choosing to believe God on His word knowing that when God says it, it’s already done. Believe, receive and wait on the Lord. At its appointed season, those promises will manifest.
God bless you and may you be encouraged in Jesus name, Amen.
