Don’t close the book on me too soon
This past watch night(New year’s) service, definitely felt God through Pastor Billy was speaking to me in “writing down his 2025 and getting to April feeling himself falling into depression. How the enemy only sees the bad that doesn’t even come close to outweighing all the good. When God is placing those things in the rear view, they’ll attempt bring them to the floor front. Forgetting that in Joel 2:25 “ I will restore to you the tears that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palm worm, my great army which I sent among you.” If you can’t get past the tongue I used to use, drinking I stopped, past relations, friends, how I used to handle disrespect, don’t speak.
To be honest I’ve fell to silence/being mute again, as that only has me in a state of depression, in a season where God has been silent. Leads to Apostle Ken Bennett speaking on some of us are in a season where we’re trying to hear God but he’s silent. I’m not writing off 2025 because God has been good to me amen. I have slowly got here following my mother’s passing and didn’t have time for anything, especially processing losing someone I never had (my mother). To worrying about my pops and his health. Now I remind you that just because God is silent doesn’t mean he isn’t moving. God has given me Joy, 365 days of life, peace and experience of feeling something I dreamed and want for throughout my life. I heard Apostle Bennett say 2025 was a setup year. In other words 2025 was a setup for you to receive that movement of God you’ve been praying and waiting for. Want you all to know “God Remember “-Genesis 8, doesn’t mean He forgot as the WORD says He’ll never leave you nor forsake you. God persevered Noah for a reason bigger than survival. Until what’s in you comes out, you can’t die. Genesis 4:25, what the enemy thought he killed, God brought up another chance. You can kill the man, but you can’t kill the plan. What Can took through wickedness, Elohim(God) restored through omnipotence.
My survival is proof that my assignment isn’t finished.
There’s seasons in our wave of Faith, where God doesn’t say anything. God will move and tell you after He did. John 5:6 “ Do you want to be made Whole “ In other words are you sure you want this(Movement of God), it’s going to take some loss, pain, sacrifices and more. Reasons why I’ve made decisions like asking God to make me over, the cursing must cease, drinking/clubbing must cease, evolve my heart, I must move as the example and represent God well. For some of us we’re struggling because God is quiet. In Genesis 7 God was silent, That’s why you shouldn’t close the book on people so soon. Verse 24, 150 days equates to about 5 months or so that God hasn’t said a word. You close the book too soon and you’ll miss the movement.
The silence of God isn’t the absence of God. Chapter 7 doesn’t get the last word because Chapter 8 of Genesis begins with but (a conjunction) “But God”. When a sentence begins with a conjunction it cancels out what was said prior. In the English context “ remember “ suggest God had a memory lapse, recalled and well as stated before God will never leave you. In the Hebrew remember comes from the term Zakar( means to turn one’s attention toward someone with the intent to act on their behalf). When God remembered Hannah she conceived, When God remembered Rachel she conceived and When God remembered Abraham He delivered his people out of Egypt. God remembered is saying my(your) season of silence is over.
Psalms 126: 1-3 “When the Lord restored the fortunes of Zion, we were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of Joy . Then it was said among the nations, The Lord has done great things for them. The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with Joy.” The same God that remembered Noah is the same God that’s going to remember me(you). Get Ready, you said this what you want. This will be the year God remembers Hallelujah.
