God Works According To His Time Table. by joeysunrise(m): 3:39pm On Oct 17, 2018 |
“Until the time came to fulfill his dreams, the Lord tested Joseph’s character.” Ps 105:19 NLT His timetable God works according to His own timetable. And when you accept that, you’ll be able to enjoy where you are right now, and get to where He wants you to be. Furthermore, God may not answer all your questions; at least not in the way you’d like Him to. But be assured He is working. And since what He’s working on is often bigger than you can comprehend, He won’t bother you with details you can’t handle. Think—if God had told you all the things you’d have to go through to get to where you are right now, could you have handled it? He knows how long it’ll take and how hard it’ll be—that’s why He’s silent. If He showed you your whole life in advance you’d faint. Joseph discovered during his time in prison that when God gives you a vision and you commit yourself to it, there’s no “opt-out clause.” So stop projecting into the future. When you live in yesterday you end up with a case of the “if onlys,” and when you try to live in tomorrow you get a case of the “what ifs.” Remember the popular hit song: “One day at a time, sweet Jesus, that’s all I’m asking of you. Just give me the strength to do every day what I have to do. Yesterday’s gone, sweet Jesus, and tomorrow may never be mine. Lord help me today, show me the way, one day at a time.” What should you do? Trust God to work things out for you according to His timetable. 1 Like |

Which of the Gods ? I am sorry, I am supposed to ask, which God do you worship that has time-table for himself. So, it does not matter if you die, your God must wait for his timetable. Na wa for that God oh. 1 Like |

joeysunrise: That is a very ignorant way of speaking. Obviously I am not a Christian and I do not believe in the rubbish you read from doctored classical history books, and the wonderful thing is that I worship nothing. Nothing is worth worshiping by me. I have deactivated the worship program from my DNA codecs, so the fact that you are a slave or sheep of some God does not mean, I can stoop low to worship another entity. But the Gods can worship me though. 3 Likes |

You know, Yahweh's "timetable" for Samson is quite fascinating...... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRh7W-Bsg5g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8758UW_RjM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9Sjr2lnoLs I swear, christianity will go into extinction by the year 2030. Let the sheeples keep fooling themselves |

God works according to His own ways and a timetable of God's deeds toward men doesn't exist as we portray it. His blessings can be provoked as hinted in Malachi 3. He asks us to pay tithe and watch if he won't pour out His blessings upon us. That tells u there is a part you must play to set God in motion regarding that situation. 1 Like |

joeysunrise:isnt this a scam statement? What is Gods timetable. if you are asked to wait for someone who can come at any time, it could be today, next week or next two years will you wait? If God is working according to his own time table, then he shouldnt ask you to wait on him. its a scam in the sense that he can always claim to be the cause of the result of your hardwork. how can you be happy with where u are when you dont know when he will get u to where he wants u to be? what details can humans handle pls? if God is working why should i be working my ass off too. since u want me to wait on God, should i relax and wait of be doing my own thing? how can i tell if it my hard work or Gods unkown effort that produced result? the whole thing is bizzare.. he wil not answer my questions, i should just wait on him to work out something big but i dont know when, meanwhile i should be putting my own personal effort to get result.... hmm why not? this makes no sense... i am the one expecting, not him. whats his silence meant to acheive? no... i will be happy and plan myself better. the same God that would rather be silent knowing that telling us his plan for us will make us faint is now giving visions that we should commit ourselves to? you said we will faint if we know I said no... i will plan myself better now u are concurring with my statement. and when you know the future u commit urself to it and plan better. this does not stop him from showing u his timetable while u still put ur trust in him... at least u can now hold him by his timetable promises. |

Zoharariel:It is a pity people like OP make some basic mistakes to hand guys like you the opportunity to talk zigzag. God's move towards men are triggered by acts of man. God doesn't have a timetable the way OP is portraying here. Faith itself is a force and can be ramped up for a forceful delivery of our right/entitlement according to God's will. God as a creator or the Chief creator also has the power to mould a vessel of honour out of same material he moulds another vessel to dishonour. In fact the bible is one big book of analogies meant to open us up to things and nature of the spiritual realm/man which is where the true man exists. We have made bedtime stories of some of those analogies and that's why folks like you will type what you typed about Samson. 1 Like |
