I can remember my daughter coming to us to inform us that she was getting married. She was an active Christian and she was undoubtedly overjoyed. I wasn’t as jubilant – my “Baby Girl” all grown up, and as a Dad it was very hard for me to release, but I had to look past may emotions. So, I was happy for her. My wife and I did ask her why the rush in tying the knot because they had only been dating for about ten months. She was expecting, and I felt she was feeling pressured because we taught along with our other children the Christian faith, and she also told us that the baby’s daddy expressed his wishes to marry her. She wasn’t in favor of counseling before marriage because he wasn’t a Christian. So, I had to let go and allow her to “run her own race at God’s pace.”

“God’s Pace Is Proper”
My intention wasn’t to discourage them during a pre marriage counseling I wanted to enlighten them that they were young, and she was brought up in the Christian faith and had done very well. Since my experience with my daughter, I have over-hauled my my approach on many topics when it comes to individual agendas.Beloved, each one of us has our own race to run. Each race is unique. We can’t run the race of others and they can’t run ours. With God, there’s no late or too soon. Everything with God is on time and in His time!!!To God Be The Glory” -
“Run Your Enemies Off”
Psalm 68:1 (NLT)
1 Rise up, O God, and scatter your enemies.
Let those who hate God run for their lives.Happy Sunday to you Beloved,
Beloved allow me to ask you a question: What are you letting stand up against you in your life? In other words, what are you directing your words, energy and thoughts on? You might say, “Oh, it’s just so hard right now. My finances are tight.” “My health doesn’t look good.” “Somebody walked out on me.” No Beloved!!! 😀 You’re concentrating on the wrong things. You’re letting downfalls, dissuasion and self-pity rise up. Why don’t you turn that around and say, “God is still in control!!!
Somebody may have walked out on me, but I know God is going to bring me somebody better.” “I may be hurting right now, but I know God is the restorer of my soul.” “I may have an unexpected debt, but I know God is my provider. He’s supplying all of my needs. He’s fighting my battles.”
Beloved, when you give God glory and let Him arise in your life, you can’t stay defeated. 😀 No foe can stand against you in the presence of Almighty God. Your enemies will run off in all directions trying to get away!!! They’ll tremble at your words of faith!!! Beloved, let God arise and embrace the blessing and victory He has prepared for you!!! 😀
Will you Pray with me?
Dear Heavenly Father, at this time I release any undesirable, self-defeating opinions or attitudes. Instead, I select to let God arise in my life. I affirm that You’re worthy, You’re holy, and You’re the center of my joy, peace and strength.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen and Amen.
Have a blessed Sunday Everyone. 😀
