Your change will surely come!

“If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come. Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.” Job 14:14-15KJV.

Job's story exemplifies the steadfast faith required to wait for divine intervention and transformation. Despite enduring immense suffering and loss, Job remained faithful, trusting that his circumstances would eventually change through God's intervention. His unwavering patience is echoed in Habakkuk 2:3, which reassures believers that "the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry."

When the anticipated change seems delayed, it is crucial to maintain and even deepen your spiritual practices. Increasing your personal time with the Lord, with a focus on worship, asking for wisdom, and meditating on God’s word, can provide strength and clarity. Speaking directly to your situation, as Jesus did when He calmed the storm (Mark 4:39), can reinforce your faith and authority in Christ. Becoming more liberal in giving reflects the principle that "it is more blessed to give than to receive" (Acts 20:35), and can invite God's favor. Finally, adopting a resolute mindset to wait until your change comes, as Job did, aligns with the biblical promise that those who wait upon the Lord "shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint" (Isaiah 40:31). By following these steps, you align yourself with God’s timing and purpose, ensuring that your change will indeed come in His perfect timing.

Prophetic Word: Dear friend, the Lord is telling you that your waiting is worthwhile. Just as the dawn breaks after the darkest night, your change is coming. Hold on to the promises I have spoken over your life. The delays you have experienced are not denials, but divine setups for a greater manifestation of My glory. Just as Job waited and received double for his trouble, so shall you see an abundance of blessings and breakthroughs. I am refining you, preparing you for the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). Trust in My timing, for it is perfect. Your change is imminent, and it will come suddenly, like a flood, overwhelming you with My goodness and mercy.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your unchanging love and faithfulness. We come before You with hearts full of expectation, believing that our change is on the horizon. Just as You were with Job in his trials, we know that You are with us in our waiting. Grant us the strength to persevere, the wisdom to understand Your ways, and the patience to wait on Your perfect timing.

Lord, we speak to every situation that seems stagnant and declare Your life and power into it. We thank You for the promises You have given us, and we stand on Your Word, believing that what You have spoken will come to pass. Help us to increase our time in Your presence, to worship You with all our hearts, and to seek Your wisdom and guidance.

Make us vessels of Your generosity, reflecting Your love through our giving. Strengthen our resolve to wait with faith and hope, knowing that our change will surely come. We thank You in advance for the breakthroughs, the blessings, and the fulfillment of Your promises. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.

Your expected change is now in Jesus name.
