Delays are NOT Denials, but PROTECTION

| Getting ready for work this morning and completely unaware what The Lord was keeping me from, I left out later than what I anticipated. Going East on Business 40 to work, there was heavy traffic (more so than normal), which seemed to be caused by an accident. As I continued to move on slowly, there were two vehicles on the left side of the road in the grass, which appeared to be a minor "fender bender". As an officer stopped vehicles so both cars can move to the right side of the highway on the shoulder, it appeared to be more than what was seen, as traffic was still heavy even after
passing the minor wreck.
As vehicles came to a stop, a police car flew by on the shoulder, followed by two tow trucks, another truck with a sign for closing a lane, one more police car, another tow truck then an ambulance. While approaching the vehicle accident site, there were three vehicles which 'appeared' to have been totaled. Two on the right side of the highway and one on the other; whereas at the 'same time'
on the opposite side of the expressway heading West, there were two cars involved in a minor accident as well; which traffic was backed up on that side also.
While driving through and praying no one was injured, seriously injured or that there were no fatalities, I could not help but THANK THE LORD FOR SPARING ME. You see, had I left at the time that I wanted to leave the house...who knows what could or may have happened. My Mother always spoke of "God's Preventive Medicine" meaning that in times like this, The Lord can delay you to prevent you for harm or even death, while you head to your place of destination.
The Lord spoke to my spirit this morning and let me know that even though there are delays in life.. delays does not stop you from reaching your destination (YOUR DESTINY, YOUR PURPOSE). However, if we "TRUST" IN THE LORD with all of our heart and lean NOT to our own understanding, HE WILL DIRECT our paths and with direction " If
we obey and trust HIM", HIS GUIDANCE can and will lead us out of harms way and we WILL ARRIVE at our APPOINTED Destination safely!
Therefore, be not dismayed but be encouraged for your "delays" are not denials, but PROTECTION AND PREPARTION FOR YOUR DESTINATION, FOR YOUR DESTINY AND FOR YOUR PURPOSE!
Be Blessed and stay encouraged!

Experience a personal day to day Jubilee with THE LORD
God Is
What you have is exactly what others need.
Ever been stuck between a rock and a hard place unsure which direction to take....or simply backed into a corner not sure how to get out of your situation? Or maybe you did not know how to do something and needed guidance. Well, NO MATTER what we face in life, whether simple or complex...THE LORD KNOWS AND HE SEES. There isn't ANYTHING that HE doesn't know or understand. NO Matter what it is, God KNOWS and HE has given us HIS Holy Word to use in time of help, in times when we need comfort or if we just want to commune with HIM to meditate on HIS GOODNESS AND HIS HOLINESS. Everything is in the Word of God that applies to life circumstances. I stand in constant amazement on HOW HE does things...HE JUST BLOWS MY MIND....EVERY TIME...ALL THE TIME! We serve an immeasurable, limitless God that isn't held or controlled by time, situations or limits. We serve a God that is so full of Mercy and Grace, yet because of HIS Love for us, will chastise to protect us, to keep us on the right path (HIS PATH). I THANK GOD for loving me sooooo much! I THANK GOD for calling me HIS! I THANK THE LORD JESUS CHRIST FOR BEING MY ALL-IN-ALL, MY EVERYTHING AND THE LOVE OF MY LIFE. I heard a Minister say that GOD isn't FIRST, because if GOD is First then there is a second and so on....GOD IS OUR EVERYTHING AND THAT GOES FAR BEYOND BEING FIRST! So whatever you are facing, please know that Wisdom and Power IS HE and HE IS LOVE and HE Loves us! THANK THE LORD JESUS FOR AGAPE LOVE that isn't bound by our unrighteous. THANK THE LORD that HE TRULY LOVES US and feels our pain, our joy and is with us DAILY. Be Bless and KNOW that you are NOT alone, for THE LORD IS WITH YOU and HE has ALL Power!
"Mirror, Mirror on the Wall", what you reveal today is not a tell all. Yesterday has come and gone, yet we have survived those pains and struggles to make it through. It has helped to strengthen us for the new things approaching. Many of us are wrestling with what we see now or may be discouraged by our present situation. Please believe me when I tell you that there is a uncompleted storyline for our lives. While we are alive, God has intentions for us. It is our choice to get in-line with His plan for our lives or choose to stay in the defeated image of what may see in the mirror today. I say look hard into that mirror and see the potential of who you are to become. We are BETTER than our yesteryears and yesterday. We're NOT what it may seem like today...We are who God say we are!
