25 The Lord says, “I will give you back what you lost to the swarming locusts, the hopping locusts,the stripping locusts, and the cutting locusts.
It was I who sent this great destroying army against you.
Beloved,
God knows how to make up for years you’ve lost in your life. Though it’s impossible to relive your youthful years, God can make the rest of your life very fulfilling, so enjoyable that you don’t even miss what didn’t happen in the past.
You may feel like you wasted years in a relationship that didn’t work out. But God can bring somebody into your life so great, so fun, so friendly, very attractive that you don’t even remember the years that you’ve lost. You may have spent years on a job that turned out to be a dead end. You were working your way to the top, things didn’t turn out like you had hoped, and now it looks like there’s a big waste of time.
You may not see how you could ever get to where you want to be, but don’t believe those lies. God knows how to make up for lost time.
Beloved, God can fast-track things. God can bring opportunities back across your path that you missed that will push you years ahead. It may not have happened the first time, but God will always give you another chance. He’ll make up for the lost time and bring you out better and stronger than ever before!!!
