It’s Not Too Late
It’s Not Too Late
ByOne of the greatest deceptions we fall prey to is believing that it’s too late to achieve our goals. The greatest trick of the enemy is to cause you to abort the divine appointment God has for your life.
Too often, we tell ourselves that our dreams are too far out of reach. We think that we’re too old to achieve them, or we don’t have the talents, or we don’t have the motivation. And many people even go as far as to make up excuses for why they shouldn’t achieve their goals.
But you should know that if God has given you a dream and a destiny, it’s your job to fulfill it. He may give you an assignment early on in life or He may reveal it to you at a much later age. But know that if God has given you a goal to shoot for, you should defy all the reasons why you shouldn’t do it. Instead, be bold and courageous enough to take a step of faith!
Remember, Moses was eighty years old when God sent him back to Egypt to deliver the children of Egypt out of bondage. Abraham was ninety-nine when he had his first son, Issac. Noah was over five-hundred years old when God told him to build the ark. So my friend, it’s never too late for you.
That business that you’ve been wanting to start, it’s not too late. That house that you’ve been looking for, it’s not too late. Maybe you want to lose weight and get in shape, it’s never too late. Perhaps you want to travel the world and see the sights, it’s not too late!
Whether God gave you the vision or it’s a desire that you have- if it’s edifying and worthy of praise, then know that God is backing you up. And when God is backing you up, then nothing can stop you. If God be for you who can be against you. In Philippians 1:6, Apostle Paul says, “I am confident of this one thing, that He who has begun a work in me will carry it on to completion until the day of Jesus Christ.” That means, if God started it then He’s going to finish it. He won’t allow you to fail, He’ll cause you to prosper!
There may be some difficult challenges along the way. There may be some burdens or hardships or obstacles to slow you up. But take courage in the Lord and keep hoping and believing. Know that with man nothing is possible but with God all things are possible. Know that you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you as you charge forth on your journey of life!
