Staying encouraged through the process. Life is a journey filled
with ups, downs, and unexpected detours. Sometimes the process feels overwhelming,
waiting for a breakthrough and enduring setbacks and facing uncertainty.
But remember this, God is working even when you don't
see it. Key scripture. Being confident of this that He
(00:21):
has began a good work, and you will carry it
on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus Philippians
one six and IV. If God started something in your life,
he will finish it. Your job is not to figure
out every detail, but to trust the process and stay
encouraged along the way. One The process is necessary for
the promise. We love the promise, but don't always love
(00:43):
the process. We want the blessing without the waiting, the
growth without the struggle, and the testimony without the test.
But God uses the process to strengthen our faith, prepare
us for the next level, and refine our character. James
one three says, because you know that the testing of
your faith produces perseverance. Romans eight twenty eight reminds us,
(01:04):
and we know that in all things God works for
the good of those who love him. Isaiah forty eight
ten declares see I have refined you, though not as silver.
I have tested you in the furnace of affliction. Every
delay has a purpose. Every hardship is shaping you. The
process is not punishment, it is preparation. Two. When you
(01:24):

promises instead of fear and doubt. Surround yourself with encouragement
(02:07):
and connect with people who speak life into your dreams.

perseverance brings the reward. Galatians six x nine says, let
us not become weary in doing good, for at the
proper time, we will reap a harvest if we do
not give up. Four. Trust God's timing. The delay is
not denial. If it hasn't happened yet, it is because
(02:30):
God is still setting things up in your favor. Delays
do not mean you are forgotten. Sometimes God is protecting you,
preparing you, or positioning you. Isaiah sixty twenty two says,
when the time is right, I the Lord will make
it happen. Instead of asking God, why is this taking
so long? Ask God? What are you teaching me? In
