Psalm 103:2
We often wait for life to slow down before we seek God. But let us be honest. That quiet moment we are waiting for rarely ever comes. The truth is, if we wait for the perfect time to come to God, we may delay the very blessing we need. God is not most honoured when your gift to Him is easy or convenient, but when it costs you something. And that principle applies to your time as well. When you wake up early even though you are tired, when you remain in prayer even when your heart feels heavy, you are choosing Him over your situation. Psalm 103 says, “Bless the Lord, O my soul… and forget not.” It does not say “wait until life settles,” because that pause may never come. Prophet T.B. Joshua reminds us: time for God will not just appear. You have to create it. And when you do, that is where true honour lives.
Create Time For God
“Psalm 103:2, 17-18, “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him, and His righteousness to children’s children, to such as keep His covenant, and to those who remember His commandments to do them.”
When you are caught up in the whirl of everyday activities, it is difficult to make a good decision. In the same way, you cannot think well while on the run.
In the hectic, busy rush of daily life, don’t allow your life to get so full that there is no room for God. We must find room in our hearts to bless the Lord always.
You will never find a convenient time to develop your relationship with God, you must create it. God is most honoured in our sacrificial offerings but dishonoured in our offerings of convenience. All offerings of inconvenience are sacrificial.
While making time to read the Word of God and talk to Him, do not forget that to dialogue with Him, you also need to make time to sit back in faith and listen to what God has to say. Even when He seems to be silent, God is still saying something.”
– Prophet TB Joshua
