Prophecies are words that are seeds that are sown in your heart but do not manifest instantly, it takes time to walk into what was sown. If you want instant answers, instant fulfillment, instant anything in the kingdom of God you are going to struggle. Time is not your enemy but your ally in the kingdom of God and time builds things in you that are unseen until time has finished its work. Oh the gift of time in the kingdom of God.

One prophetic word I have heard and been told over and over again is Amos 9:13 “”Yes indeed, it won’t be long now.” GOD’s Decree. Things are going to happen so fast your head will swim, one thing fast on the heels of the other. You won’t be able to keep up. Everything will be happening at once—and everywhere you look, blessings! Blessings like wine pouring off the mountains and hills.” It such a great word, it preaches really well, but the words “It won’t be long now…” can taunt you, can tempt you to quit, can make you say, why the delay, or did God really say. My friends, time is not your enemy it is your ally. But it takes time for us to walk into this word, but I can tell you and will tell you more soon, when this word happens in your life, it truly makes your head swim with how fast things happen.

We call the faith walk, crazy, because we have no control over when, where, and how things are going to happen. Our need for control, predictability and understanding keeps us from walking by faith. The reason being we don’t really believe God will take care of us; that He hears us when we pray; and that He will answer us. Jesus said there is one thing He is looking for on earth…faith. Faith is the substance, the evidence, the one thing Jesus looks for, yet it is the one thing we don’t operate in; we don’t exercise it; we don’t have. Faith doesn’t come natural; faith isn’t instant; faith is a long-term relationship with the living God.

Faith is the master key that unlocks everything on earth. No wonder Jesus said to the disciples, where is your faith and oh, you of little faith. He also said to the Centurion, I have never seen such faith in all of Israel and to the woman who had the 12 year issue of blood, go and be made whole, your faith has healed you. Faith is what we are lacking, which is why we don’t experience God activity. To see God in our lives, we must walk by faith and not by sight. Faith is what Jesus is looking for on earth!
