One of my favorite movies of all time is Facing the Giants. (if you have not seen it, it is a MUST SEE. You will never be the same) There is a quote from there that I have up in my office. It simply says:
God will send the rain with He's ready. You need to prepare your fields to receive it.
I know this means different things to different people. But, think for a moment...what is YOUR field and what is YOUR rain? Are you believing for children? Then your body is your field and your baby is your rain. Are you waiting for a financial breakthru? Then your bank account is your field and the finances are your rain. You may just be waiting for God to help you with your life in general. Then, your mind is your field, and your faith/belief/answer is your rain.
No matter what your situation is, you will need to have faith. That doesn't change. All of us are believing God for something. All of us. A few months ago, my pastor told us to think of something that we were having a hard time giving to God, and we prayed about it and I gave it to God. Whenever the devil tried to bring it up, I reminded him and me that it was God's issue now. My hands were off. Amazingly enough, that was all it took. Just a month after that, that "thing" I gave God blossomed. I was truly in wonder. God did it!!
Later, I saw how how I had been preparing my fields and didn't even realize it. God is faithful. He loves us very much. AND he wants to bless us. He wants to send the rain....you just have to prepare your fields to receive it.
Go think about that.....
