Trust God At Every No

Scripture reference: Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV)

Transcription:

Today, I am encouraging you to trust God at every no.

Once I was told a story about an author who was rejected thirteen times before being published. While her story ends with a “yes,” her testimony is her perseverance through thirteen difficult “no’s.” 

When I turn to the Scriptures, I think about Moses going before Pharaoh to ask him to release the Israelites from slavery. Moses’ situation was worse because on several occasions Pharaoh would actually respond with a “yes” before ultimately saying “no.”

It can be so discouraging when you are told “yes” and get your hopes up, only to eventually be told “no.” This happened to Moses ten times.

Yet Moses trusted God at every “no.” That is how he finally got to his “yes.” He trusted that God would grant him that “yes” in his divine time.

Stay the course for your beautiful testimony by holding onto these words: “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!” Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV)

This has been your B Moment. Your moment to be still…to be fed by the Word of God…to be grateful.
