God speaks today Sunday | April 28, 2024
Now Joshua was old and stricken in years; and the LORD said unto him, Thou art old and stricken in years, and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.
(Joshua 13:1)For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
(2 Corinthians 4:16) Yes, but not yet!
God's promises should motivate us to continue living in hope, but we need to have faith and trust in God's timing and plans. Even when leaders grow old and are unable to continue leading, the work of the Kingdom continues under the direction of the Lord. We must continue to obey, be loyal, humble, consecrated, sacrificial, and loving towards others. God will fulfill his promises, and we are simply servants and ministers in his work. We have already achieved some goals in Christ, but we must keep dyeing the sky with hope and trust that others will take on our responsibilities and continue the work of advancing the Kingdom.
