And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.- Hebrews 6:15
"After he had patiently endured" this referring to Abraham, we know that Isaac did not happened immediately, not a year after the promise, not two or five, not ten or twenty, but twenty-five (25) solid years. To many this is just a story, but it is not.
Everything stated in the Holy Bible is true and they are for our example, 1 Corinthians 10:11.
Today, with the rise of technology and fast food companies, people think there is no need to wait that long for anything anymore, if God is not responding fast enough... just Google it and seek alternatives.
This has led to many self afflicted calamities, situations and challenges that many are confronted with today. Abraham and Sarah tried to help themselves out, the result was Ishmael, the world have not recovered from that error yet. So imagine what seeking alternatives outside God can cause for the generations unborn.
It pays to wait on Him, He alone knows the end from the beginning.
When many do not get the promise they were promised, then they turned from following after righteousness, in Jeremiah 18:9-10 the Bible speaking said,
"And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
If it do evil in my sight, THAT IT OBEY NOT MY VOICE, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them." this also refers to individuals.
From the above scripture we see that though God has promised us, we must remain in righteousness, "IF" we intend to enjoy the manifestations thereof. Many run with promises, lived like the devil and wonder why nothing happened; then they blame God for not keeping His WORD.
God is ever faithful, its you and I that need to examine ourselves "if" we were ever in faith on the subject matter, 2 Corinthians 13:5.
Ones we are in faith with Him, God’s word will always come through, and you shall laugh (have your Isaac) at last.
The peace of God be with you, in Jesus name!
Jesus is Lord!
