2 samuel 7 v 3 says: "Nathan replied to the king, "Whatever you have in mind, go ahead and do it, for the LORD is with you."
When the Lord gives us a promise, it does not mean that things will happen smoothly. On the contrary, too often the reason why the Lord gives us a promise is to let us know that although there will be adversities, although odds will be against us, He can still make it happen if we believe in Him. Think of it, there is no point promising someone that one will do something that obviously can be done.
Too often God's promises really signal challenges ahead and He gives them to us because He expects us to trust Him through it all.
As the Children of Israel left Egypt because God had promised them to take them the promise land, they came to a point of transition in their *FAITH* as they found themselves stuck in between a great army behind them, pursuing them to destroy them, and the Red See being right in front of them. When it occured to them that they were in an impossible situation regarless of God's promises, they begun to panic and cry. But God's response to the situation was even more shoking as it even seems uncaring.
Exodus 14: 15 says: "Then the LORD said to Moses, "Why are you crying out *to me* ? *Tell the Israelites to move on*."
God never came and showed them compassion for their trouble and He never even came with a clear solution for them but *HE EXPECTED THEM TO COME UP WITH THE SOLUTION THEMSELVES* just knowing that He was with them.
In the school of *FAITH* God will not always tell you what to do, neither will He always give you the direct answer because He expects you to grow from not just having *FAITH IN HIM* but to now *EXERCISE YOUR FAITH*.
God simply told them: "Keep on moving forward regardless of all that is happening".
Children wait for God to perform *MIRACLES* but as one matures, God expects them to *MAKE MIRACLES HAPPEN*.
When a person recognizes that they have entered a season of fulfilment, challenges may still be there, but having the promises of God means that no matter what we face, *GRACE* is already available to overcome it if we engage any situation with *FAITH*.
In this realm, *CREATIVITY* becomes the means to access the *MIRACLE OF GOD*. You do not stop and cry when you face a problem but you do whatever comes to *YOUR MIND* and you keep on doing that until something produces the intended result. *MIRACLES CAN BE AS BROAD AS YOUR LEVEL OF IMAGINATION* when you are certain that no matter what, *VICTORY* is already your portion in the end because GOD is with YOU.
This is what we call *WORKING OUT A MIRACLE THROUGH ACTIVE FAITH*. God bless you 🙏🏽
Pray with me:
Heavenly Father I thank you the privilege of having you by my side and knowing that you are there to work out everything for my good.
I thank you because in Christ I am already a champion no matter what happens around. On this day let *COURAGE* be my portion as i believe in you to *WORK OUT MIRACLES* for every situation I face.
In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
