A TIME OF RESTORATION

Daily Thought

Your Word for 08 November 2024

Joshua 23:14
‘Not one thing has failed of all the good things which the LORD your God spoke concerning you. All have come to pass for you; not one word of them has failed.’

We are living in interesting days. There are different things taking place all over the world and they are things that oftentimes can be of concern! Many individuals have been through difficult seasons. But God has something new, and I believe it is a time of restoration. A season during which He will do a work of restoring. I received an email from a friend who wrote and said that it felt like the last few years he was in a ‘faith school’ and things had been a challenge. It is during these ‘faith school’ seasons that we learn to trust God and to hold on to Him. Faith is the thing that moves God, and we can look forward to the work of restoration that He wants to do in our lives.

ORIGINAL CONDITION
The purpose of restoration is to return something to its original condition. As we pass through life, we experience things that affect our condition and this in turn blocks us from what God has in store for us. God wants to bring restoration in our lives so that we can be put back on course for His blueprint for our lives. This is something that only God can do. We cannot restore ourselves. God is the One Who can take all that we have been through and undo the damage so that we can be restored to all He had intended for us to be.

WHAT THE LOCUSTS HAVE EATEN

Joel 2:25So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten.

When God restores, He is able to take all the years that have been lost or eaten and give them back to us. Locusts work in a particular way. They swarm in their thousands and descend on crops with military precision and wreak havoc and destruction in all directions in a very short period of time. This is exactly what can happen in our lives and many people who have been through such an experience can identify with this. But God is the One Who can undo large-scale destruction and return things to their original condition.
