0:43 Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John GIFTA. Yes, we've stepped into the eleventh month of the year of twenty twenty three, and you may be in a place you're saying, John, I had a lot of expectations and hope over this year, and I thought God would show up in this area of my life, maybe in some area that you thought God would do this or do that, And here I am, John. Twenty twenty three is almost over, I guess because October is over, but I want to share this word of encouragement with you. October maybe over, but God's plans and promises over your life over twenty twenty three is not over, because God is a faithful god.

1:25 He knows what he's doing with their life. No, I want to share some scriptures and encourage you today. First things first, Isaiah fifty five, verse eleven. This is what it says. So shall my word that goes forth from my mouth, It shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. This is what the Lord is saying. You know, the word that I gave over this year for you. Maybe he gave some word in your spirit, Maybe he puts some promises in your heart.

1:55 Maybe they were desires that He placed in you. You know, the scripture talks about how He gives you those desires of your heart so that by fulfilling those desires, you are able to fulfill your purpose. You know, I've shared so many teachings on those things, but just paraphrasing it to let you know that you know those things that God placed in you, the things that you were hoping you know, I thought, you know, but now it should have happened, and all of those things. But you know, the scriptures reminding us and saying, you know you shall accomplish what I please.

2:22 You know, whatever the Lord has planned over your life, what he wants to make sure to make it happen. Over twenty twenty three, he's found to happen. It may not have happened in the first part of twenty twenty three, but it doesn't mean it's not going to happen. You know, what God has ordained is going to happen in his time. You know, come to the place of trust, Come to the place where you say, God, you know what. I know you're a God who can turn the tables around suddenly. I know you're a God who can do them impossible in my life.

2:51 Like you can quickly turn the tables around, it doesn't need to take a long period of time for him to make that miracle to become reality in your life. You know, I've shared so many scriptures with you, even a couple of episodes back I was sharing with you how you know the scripture says in John chapter five about a man who have been a cripple for thirty eight years, but the one touch with Jesus and the bible'sca is at once the man was healed. You know, I'll shared this before, even about Joseph.

3:19 You know, he went through heroes of disappointments, years of hurts, years of his life never turning around for good. But one meeting, one glorious day, he gets up and realizes his life is changed completely. You know, I pray away you guys today, even as you step into November. You know, even if you're hurt, even if you're disappointed, even if you're dealing with questions in your heart, will this really happen? Can I tell you something? Listen? There may be certain things you may be hoping to happen, but maybe this is not what God wants to do over your life in twenty twenty three.

3:51 You know, get to that place like, ask the Lord, Lord, what is it that you want to do in twenty twenty three? Not what I want to see happen, not what I expect to get done, not when the society or my family pressurizes that I need to get done in this year. But what do you want to get done in twenty twenty three? You don't get to the place of trust upon the Lord and say, God, I know that you know what is the right time to do the right thing in my life. You know. That's the place of trust, that's a place of hope.

4:21 That's the place I challenge each one of us to get to where you say, God, not my will, but let your will be done, not my timing, but let your timing prevail over my life, you know. And not when you want things to get done, not how you want things to get done, but coming to that place of trust upon the Lord and say, God, you know what you control my life. You run my life. You have a good plan for my life, and you're an on time God. I don't want I don't want to run ahead of your timing. I don't want to be delayed.

4:56 But I know, but I'm in the center of your will and I know that at the right time, you'll make all things beautiful. You know. Can you get to that place of trust today? And this is just to encourage you, even if you're discouraged God, I pray that just word will encourage those are listening, reminding them that you know, you know, I love how the scriptures talks about you know, even I've shared these scriptures so many times, so I just want to remind you and encourage you that you know it says at the right time.

5:22 God made sure that everything he promised Abraham and Sarah became a reality. You know, in your life, every word got placed over you at the right time. It's going to have come to pass. It may be scheduled for twenty twenty three, it will happen in twenty twenty three. But if it is not schedule for twenty twenty three, no matter how much you pray, no matter how much you worry, no matter how pressurized you get, it's not gonna happen in twenty twenty three. Get to that place of absolute trust upon the Lord.

5:53 And I'm telling you, when you get to that place of trust, hope, and reliance upon the Lord, he will never put you down. Amen. God bless you.
