Restore the Beauty

Text: Joel 2:25 (KJV)

And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.

I believe God is doing a whole lot of things in us because he is restoring us by making up for our inadequacy. The truth is certain times, we feel like we have lost everything because we are either facing delays or challenges, but I bring good news to you that whatever we have lost God will make-up or restore all of it even in multiple folds. In our text of today, we can see terms like locust, cankerworm, caterpillar and palmerworm are used, they all refer to delays and challenges because these insects gradually eat up leaves until there is nothing left, but the good news is God will restore all of it no matter the level of damage. Sometimes, the circumstances of this world slow’s us down and makes us feel like we are not led by God, but I encourage you to cheer up, because you have God of restoration. Although, those issues come to delay our dreams, we must remember, God is making up for us. Jeremiah 27:22- They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be until the day that I visit them, saith the Lord; then will I bring them up, and restore them to this places, I encourage you to have faith in God, because He will not only restore (or make-up), but He will also repair, so no matter how long the delays have lasted, the story has changed today. Hallelujah!!!

The truth is, I do not know what delays you may be facing, either it was out of carelessness or it was unintentional.  But I encourage you, please do not give up because your restoration has already started due to the coming of Jesus as our savior. Matthew 17:11- And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. The amazing part is that God will not only restore double, fourfold, sevenfold, but He will restore all the lost years even from generation to generation, and I tell you, you have nothing to pay back except a “thank you God”.Proverbs' 6:31- But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.All we just need to do is to Accept, Believe, and Confess that He is your savior today and see all your possession return to you in Jesus name.

PRAYER POINT:

1.      Oh Lord, please make-up for me in areas of my spiritual weaknesses and otherwise, so as to be useful in life, in Jesus name.

ACTION QUOTE: Remember, God can fill up every emptiness as to restore His glory.
