A friend of mine just shared how God has turned their situation around. So much so that like Luke 6:38 said, “good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over.” As I was praising God for the deliverance I was thinking on how God can turn things around “right now!”
Have you ever had a subscription to a cable or satellite service? When the subscription is up there is a period of time that you have to renew the subscription. If you don’t renew the subscription within the allowed time frame the service will be disconnected and cut off. But once you have made restitution…the service is renewed and usually “right then!”
I want to encourage you to know that the devil works hard at disconnecting our service to God. He tries to hinder us from doing what is necessary to keep the service going. He tries to hinder our faith, he tries to discourage us by thinking there is “another” service, he tries to make us think we don’t need the service at all. And when we listen to the devil, we run out of the allotted time and have not made restitution with God through our prayers, praise, worship and word. Our service…from our viewpoint is disconnected!
The good news is that even when I think the service is disconnected, it is not, it just has a “bad signal!” God says He will never leave us nor forsake us.
I leave you with this. When God gets ready to fix your service and when you realize the bill has been paid, the renewal of your service is immediate and restoration is imminent. Paul told the Christians in Romans 12:2, “be ye not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Like the songwriter says, “I am redeemed, bought with a price. Jesus has changed my whole life. If anybody ask you just who I am, tell them, I am redeemed!”
