Great insight and application on allowing God to operate in time to get us on time with Him. Also great thoughts on moving with God when we don't feel like we ready.

In this episode Pastor Jacob adds insight to what it means to serve and "On Time" God who owns time. Such great insight and information on why we should trust that God is in control and is working in time for our benefit because He in "On Time".

What do you when it is time but you not ready. Well you have to really trust the word and direction you got from God. We have to remember that when it is time, rarely are we going to "feel" ready, regardless of how ready we think we are. We also have to realize that whatever God is calling us to will be beyond our ability. This is why it is so important to stay in faith and move on what God said as oppose to what we feel. When we do, we can access His great ability on our behalf to accomplish all He has called us to.

Our timing and God's timing is often out of synch. But we have to be honest, God is not wrong. This is where we have to work hard to trust God and give it time to happen. What do you do while you waiting? You trust, you develop and you obey. Doing so will prepare us for when the time comes.

As Christians, we have to learn that our concept of time is not the same as God's concept of time. God is over time, above time, in charge of time because He created time. His Idea of time is seasonal, overarching and all encompassing. Our idea of time is linear or Chronological. Our task is to get "On Time" with God so that we can walk in and receive all the things He has ordained for us in time.

Honestly, sometimes it hurts and it hurts bad. The question for Christians is how do we maneuver through those times. The truth is, we have never been guaranteed a life of ease or a life free from disappointment or distress. As a matter of fact Jesus explains that in this world there will be trying and difficult times. He also says to be of good cheer because He has overcome the world. He is telling us that we can rest assured knowing that He has overcome and will bring all things to a positive end for us no matter how it looks right now. So what is our response. Well, in a word...Worship. The more we learn to worship through what we are going through the stronger we get, the closer we get to Jesus and the better we are able to navigate what is going on. So no matter what it is or how bad it seems, worship through it all.

God proclaimed that it is not good for man to be alone. This indicates that as great as it is to have God, and we must, God also created us human and intentionally created us to have needs that would have to be met by other humans. We are not meant to be alone. And we are not meant to handle things alone or only by spiritual means. The Spirit should lead us to a better human existence including rest, relaxation and therapy. Rely on God?...yes. Put your trust in Jesus for salvation?...yes. Realize you are human and that you will also have to rely on God, trust Jesus and learn to take care of your "humanness" through therapeutic means that God has allowed?...yes. So let's explore the full range of godly means to grow and be the best we can be. Jesus...and therapy. Not just counseling but rest, relaxation, restoration and revitalization in all acceptable forms.

Obstacles are inevitable, and they are often used by God to strengthen us and draw us closer to Him. Sometimes those obstacles include loss, disappointment and in some cases disaster. And on top of that, it often requires that we recover and rebuild. And if we are going to have to do so, lets do it better, bigger, stronger than ever before. The blessing of it all is that we have God as our source, as our guide, as our protector and as our companion every step of the way.
