I will restore to you the years
that the swarming locust has eaten...
You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied,
and praise the name of the Lord
your God,
who has dealt wondrously with you.
There will be times in our lives when we slip, when
we think we've listened to God guiding us, but we get it wrong...
When that happens let's not make the mistake of allowing
the enemy to convince us that we’ve suddenly become second class Christians.
God’s grace is sufficient!
You see the devil will spin a tale something like
this:
Your life is planned out for you by God, who acts like some kind
of cosmic travel agent. So as long as you turn up in the right place at the right
time and stick to His itinerary then you’re fine… But the moment you miss one
of the connections God has sent you to the plan is ruined. Yes if you ask Him,
God will draw up another one for you, but it will always be a bit second best,
it can you can never really recover, not properly…
Don’t ever believe that; don’t believe the
lie that God doesn’t have the wisdom or the resolve to, immediately you ask
Him, pick you up, dust you down and set you on the best, the perfect, path for
you. God can and does graciously restore us, when we let Him…
