Happy New Year! May our Lord bless you in abundance this year! Now to the post....Delays, delays delays...that's been the story of my comic for some time now and now I can say it's good to have delays. Huh? I admit I prefer to not have them, but God has revealed a truth in me. Delays can settle you and mature your faith. This Wednesday and I'm praying for this week I should be getting demo copies of Volume 1. Which means I can set up to sell Volume 1 in a month or so. How long have I been waiting for these demo copies? Over 6 months. How long I have been waiting to publish my book with my current publisher? About over a year. How long have I been working on Allegories? 10 years. And it's been rough in the waiting department. There's been some ups and downs and fighting against our enemy. And the fight isn't over. The difference now is God has matured me where I can wait without griping, complaining and losing faith. Now it has taken years to get me to this point, but God is faithful. And faith in Hebrews 11:1 is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. We have everything already given to us by Jesus. We have all financial, physical and spiritual gifts and blessings. We are taught that we have to beg or plead to God for whatever, but that is not what the bible says. We are complete in Christ. We just have to have faith, take our authority and sonship. Yet, for our faith to enlarge may take time. However, in Matthew 17:20, Jesus tells us to speak to the mountain. In Luke 9:2 and Mark 3:15 we are told to heal and cast out demons. We have been given the power, authority and responsibility to change our circumstances and others through our tonge and prayers. Jesus tells us TO DO IT. We have the authority through Christ, we just have to claim it and believe it and speak it out. To get a better understanding I recommend going to this link at Andrew Wommacks site and listen to all his sermons about Grace and Faith http://www.awmi.net/tv/2009/week42. He explains and goes into way more detail.Knowing this truth has really blessed me and it works. I've just had two financial and physical miracles happen in the past month. Now I'm not saying everything is instant. It's not, that is where delays come in. I've been hearing about speaking out in faith for over a year from different ministers and only recently has the seeds bloomed. I wish I knew these truths earlier in my life, but I neede to mature more to understand them. But also I searched for this truth and went after it though I was ignorant to it. That is where we have to respond to God and any revelation he gives to us.Also we are fighting against Satan and his minions. That why you just don't give up and stop speaking and believing in what God has for you. In Daniel 10:12-13 an angel told Daniel when he first prayed it was heard and answered, but a Demon had delayed the angel to answer the prayer. So with us, though we are complete in Christ, have all spiritual authority, giftings, healing and financial prosperity it can take time for that to manifest for different reasons. So you got to keep the faith and fight and fight and fight.Am I preaching? Yes I am to you and myself. I'm not there yet, but I'm willing to learn and I'm not where I use to be. I feel I needed to share this with you out of love. And I want all of us to get to the fulfilment of the dreams God gave us. Take care.
