Topic: Give It A Date
[Seeds of Destiny 27 October 2019 Devotional]
Whatever does not have a date is not permitted to come to pass
SCRIPTURE: To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Whatever does not have a date is not permitted to come to pass
Some years ago, while I was in courtship with my wife, we visited my mother and she called me aside and asked, ‘My son, when are you both thinking of settling down; when is the wedding?’ I told her, I wasn’t sure yet. Then, she looked at me and said, ‘Give it a date; whatever does not have a date is not permitted to come to pass.’ Incredible! That statement hit me like a bomb.
Get this: Vision alone is not enough; purpose or pursuit is not enough. It is when vision is married to timing that it delivers achievement.
Beloved, there must be a specific time or date allocated to every agenda or purpose on the earth; not to do that is an invitation to frustrations and regrets. Give a wedding date to that courtship; give that business plan a date for its commencement; give that desire to go back to school a date, etc. It is when you give it a date that God will know that you are serious. When you have given it a date, God will supply all you need to make that dream or vision a reality.
REMEMBER THIS: Whatever does not have a date is not permitted to come to pass
