0:39 Gifta International. Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John GIFTA. Yes,

0:53 we've stepped into the eleventh month of the year of twenty twenty three, and

0:57 you may be in a place you're saying, John, I had a lot

1:00 of expectations and hope over this year, and I thought God would show up

1:04 in this area of my life, maybe in some area that you thought God

1:07 would do this or do that, And here I am, John. Twenty

1:11 twenty three is almost over, I guess because October is over, but I

1:15 want to share this word of encouragement with you. October maybe over, but

1:19 God's plans and promises over your life over twenty twenty three is not over,

1:23 because God is a faithful god. He knows what he's doing with their life.

1:27 No, I want to share some scriptures and encourage you today. First

1:32 things first, Isaiah fifty five, verse eleven. This is what it says.

1:34 So shall my word that goes forth from my mouth, It shall not

1:38 return to me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it

1:44 shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. This is what the

1:47 Lord is saying. You know, the word that I gave over this year

1:49 for you. Maybe he gave some word in your spirit, Maybe he puts

1:53 some promises in your heart. Maybe they were desires that He placed in you.

1:59 You know, the scripture talks about how He gives you those desires of

2:01 your heart so that by fulfilling those desires, you are able to fulfill your

2:06 purpose. You know, I've shared so many teachings on those things, but

2:08 just paraphrasing it to let you know that you know those things that God placed

2:13 in you, the things that you were hoping you know, I thought,

2:15 you know, but now it should have happened, and all of those things.

2:17 But you know, the scriptures reminding us and saying, you know you

2:21 shall accomplish what I please. You know, whatever the Lord has planned over

2:24 your life, what he wants to make sure to make it happen. Over

2:30 twenty twenty three, he's found to happen. It may not have happened in

2:34 the first part of twenty twenty three, but it doesn't mean it's not going

2:37 to happen. You know, what God has ordained is going to happen in

2:39 his time. You know, come to the place of trust, Come to

2:43 the place where you say, God, you know what. I know you're

2:46 a God who can turn the tables around suddenly. I know you're a God

2:49 who can do them impossible in my life. Like you can quickly turn the

2:53 tables around, it doesn't need to take a long period of time for him

2:58 to make that miracle to become reality in your life. You know, I've

3:00 shared so many scriptures with you, even a couple of episodes back I was

3:05 sharing with you how you know the scripture says in John chapter five about a

3:08 man who have been a cripple for thirty eight years, but the one touch

3:13 with Jesus and the bible'sca is at once the man was healed. You know,

3:16 I'll shared this before, even about Joseph. You know, he went

3:20 through heroes of disappointments, years of hurts, years of his life never turning

3:23 around for good. But one meeting, one glorious day, he gets up

3:28 and realizes his life is changed completely. You know, I pray away you

3:31 guys today, even as you step into November. You know, even if

3:36 you're hurt, even if you're disappointed, even if you're dealing with questions in

3:39 your heart, will this really happen? Can I tell you something? Listen?

3:44 There may be certain things you may be hoping to happen, but maybe

3:47 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,

3:54 what is it that you want to do in twenty twenty three? Not

3:58 what I want to see happen, not what I expect to get done,

4:02 not when the society or my family pressurizes that I need to get done in

4:06 this year. But what do you want to get done in twenty twenty three?

4:12 You don't get to the place of trust upon the Lord and say,

4:15 God, I know that you know what is the right time to do the

4:17 right thing in my life. You know. That's the place of trust,

4:20 that's a place of hope. That's the place I challenge each one of us

4:24 to get to where you say, God, not my will, but let

4:28 your will be done, not my timing, but let your timing prevail over

4:31 my life, you know. And not when you want things to get done,

4:38 not how you want things to get done, but coming to that place

4:41 of trust upon the Lord and say, God, you know what you control

4:46 my life. You run my life. You have a good plan for my

4:48 life, and you're an on time God. I don't want I don't want

4:53 to run ahead of your timing. I don't want to be delayed. But

4:56 I know, but I'm in the center of your will and I know that

5:00 at the right time, you'll make all things beautiful. You know. Can

5:02 you get to that place of trust today? And this is just to encourage

5:05 you, even if you're discouraged God, I pray that just word will encourage

5:09 those are listening, reminding them that you know, you know, I love

5:13 how the scriptures talks about you know, even I've shared these scriptures so many

5:16 times, so I just want to remind you and encourage you that you know

5:20 it says at the right time. God made sure that everything he promised Abraham

5:26 and Sarah became a reality. You know, in your life, every word

5:30 got placed over you at the right time. It's going to have come to

5:33 pass. It may be scheduled for twenty twenty three, it will happen in

5:40 twenty twenty three. But if it is not schedule for twenty twenty three,

5:43 no matter how much you pray, no matter how much you worry, no

5:47 matter how pressurized you get, it's not gonna happen in twenty twenty three.

5:50 Get to that place of absolute trust upon the Lord. And I'm telling you,

5:55 when you get to that place of trust, hope, and reliance upon

5:58 the Lord, he will never put you down. Amen. God bless you.
