“It is a matter of timing. My Timing is Mine, not your own. There is more than one aspect contained within My words to you, My People. In speaking of events, I tell you what is to come. Seldom do I tell you when. The Time has come for you to better learn My Timing, My People. Too often – most of the time – you who listen faithfully to My words and heed them insert your assumed timing into My statements and Promises. Let me ferret this out for you.

“First, look to what you know about Me. You know that I AM everlasting. You know that to Me a thousand years is but a day. This is a concept of My everlasting nature written in My Book. I want you to remember this concept of Me as I tell you of things to come. Think not only of the literal words of this statement, think also of their opposite. A day to Me is as a thousand years. Do you grasp the difference?

“I AM outside of your time. I created time for you – and one day I shall end it. What is important in My spoken Promises to you is the absolute assurance that I will bring them about. I do need your participation in the matter. Why do I even tell you things in advance? I tell you so that you may join your words of prayer in agreement with My Will – and pray for My execution of these Promises. Your faith is built as you come alongside what I AM doing and stand in agreement with Me amid the process – whether the fulfillment comes soon or takes many years.

“I want you to adjust your understanding regarding this. I want you to focus on My calling out to you to join your declarations with Mine regarding My Promises. Yes, rejoice in the ultimate Victory of such Promises brought to fruition. Rejoice in the ultimate fulfillment of My words. But understand that your greatest focus is not even to be on the fulfillment, but rather your assignment in bringing these promises to fruition. Your daily assignment is to pray and declare these Promises shall come. Even if you in your own life on earth do not live long enough to see the fulfillment of a certain Promise – you still have a great responsibility for future generations to stand and declare its fulfillment with Me.

“Do you understand what I AM telling you? Praise Me and rejoice in My ultimate fulfillment. But focus on your part in the fight to bring about such fulfillment. As long as you do this, you will be able to stand in Victory and Joy – even as the fulfillment seems in your eyes to delay. Perhaps there is no delay at all. Perhaps your assumption of My Timing was never correct.

“I spoke to you a few days ago, My People, regarding your place along the continuum of My timeline of TIME. This word to you today sheds more light on that concept. You fight with Me for the tomorrow of My Kingdom – while keeping your eyes on your fight of today. Remembering that I have called each of you to a destiny, a purpose and a place in My Kingdom that only you can fill. Think on your walk with Me as a daily fulfillment of that purpose. Herein lies your Joy and Victory, no matter the present circumstances surrounding you.

“To God be all the Glory. For He and He alone holds TIME in His hands.”
