11:48: “Do not move. Do not move from where you stand. You stand in ME? Have I given you a promise? Stated what WILL BE? Do you doubt because you have not yet seen it come to pass? Are YOU the author of My plan? Do you tell the Great I AM how things should be? Do you move the hands of TIME? Do you understand what TIME is to Me? Not the hands of a clock, a day, year, month. Time to Me is the balance of Judgment and Mercy. How long did YOU need to change your heart and decide to follow Me? Should I have shortened the Time for you?

“My timing is intricate, with many moving parts. These parts are the hearts of men. My timing requires great patience. Great FAITH. Do you trust in the Creator, or do you not?

“Consider this–an addition to the complexity. Perhaps what you look for in response to a promise of Mine is wrong. So it is not timing that is the problem, but assumption. You need spiritual eyes to see My fulfillment. Your imagination is often too small. My creativity is far above yours. My purposes are far beyond your sights. Spiritual eyes look with FAITH to the FUTURE. Impatient earthly eyes look to the demand of NOW and one’s own command of HOW. Trust Me. Trust the Creator’s creative thinking. I’ll out-think you every time. This is your JOY. Your DELIGHT. For when I come through in ways you never imagined, you will be in AWE. Would you choose a Creator God that you could out-think? Trust Me to AWE you. That is My DELIGHT. Think on this word: ENCHANTMENT.

“Hope deferred makes the heart sick. What does this mean? What is the deferred? The fulfillment, or hope itself? True HOPE never makes the heart sick. For true HOPE KNOWS I will fulfill the promise and trusts in Me. It is only when you set your hope aside and focus on perceived ill timing that your heart becomes sick. My HOPE is perfect. My HOPE is the ASSURANCE of what is not yet seen. Blessed assurance–this is your GOLD and your REST. HOPE, true HOPE transcends time. AMEN.”

2:12: “Power on, power on. The power is Mine, the Victory is Mine. The spoil is MINE. REST is Mine. REST will come. My timing.”

3:00: “Roll on, roll on, church. You are needed in this hour! It will be your FINEST ever.

“Don’t feel fine? Come to Me. In our roles, we shall roll together. As one. Victorious.”

3:15: “For they shall know you by your WORKS. MY WORKS. MY WORDS, My WORKS. Amen.”

Notes:

Regarding the paragraph about hope:

Romans 8:24-25: For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, through perseverance we wait eagerly for it.

Hebrews 11:1. Now faith is the certainty of things hoped for, a proof of things not seen.

The Greek word for hope is elpis, which means not just a wish, as we might use the word hope but an expectation of what is sure/certain.
