When all hope seems lost

by -
Job  19:10 He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.  19:11 He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me unto him as one of his enemies.

Many people, at one time or the other, have the nagging thought that God had offended them, so to say. Far be it from Him. The infallible God cannot cheat on anyone. Most times, one needs to objectively examine him/herself where things have gone wrong, to facilitate one's journey of recovery. 

At times, God might delay certain blessings or breakthrough for the reasons best known to Him. We should know that He doesn't need to consult us to make sure His plans align with our schedules, plans, or timetable. 

Sometimes, He shakes our foundations in order to develop us, He would allow tests to visit the believers in order to prove the believer's worth and promote him accordingly. 

Therefore, when your hope  seems dashed or when that desired miracle seems delayed, God is strengthening your faith and teaching you to stay balanced under the pressure or storms of life. 

Job finally overcome and was rewarded for it, the Lord blessed the latter part of Job's life more than the first. He had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen and a thousand donkeys  and he also had sevens sons and three daughters. 

Have you taken your time to calculate the number of years that Sarah had to wait before her barrenness was removed?, Elizabeth also waited for years, Hannah's womb was purposely closed by God for close to twenty years. Yet, their times came  Sarah gave birth to Isaac when all hope seemed lost, Joseph had thought he will be a prison for the rest of his life but help came. 

Don't be discouraged, hope is not lost. Your miracle is one the way.  Trust God in all areas of life and in every situation. You will never be disappointed. 

God bless you.
