SESSION NOTES:

We had a good AM workout. Our new member was there and I got to work with her one on one and help her along her journey. That’s what its about.

Word Of the Day (WOD):

God’s Schedule

How many of us have a schedule of how we want things to be in our lives?

Spoiler Alert: God doesn’t check your schedule.

For that matter, neither does the devil. The Devil doesn’t look and say, “Would it be all right if I stopped by at 3:30 Tuesday afternoon and visit you with depression, anxiety, a panic attack, and shortness of breath?” No. The heavenly realms don’t operate on a human schedule. But we as humans, that’s so hard for us to accept

You have to stay in a place where you know how to breath in the presence of God. A place where you are looking at the presence of God.

The apostle Paul knew this very well. I wrote a post about it, “Paul’s faith”

Paul was aware of the presence of the almighty God with him.

Its written in Psalms as well,

“I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.” (PS. 121:1-2 ESV)

When God comes calling and wants to reset your schedule, will you let him?

You see when God comes into the middle of your life, you’ve got all these things going on and – boom. Your now on His schedule. And its almost like He’s saying “let me make it up to you.” “I’m going to do exceedingly & abundantly above what you had on your schedule.” and He’s also saying “Let me get you ready for what I’ve got in store for you.”

How many of us are in that get you ready phase? Yet we want our own schedule.

If you are really going to trust the Lord, trust Him with all your heart – then you’ve got to move with Him.

When it happens it really doesn’t matter what your schedule is. What matters is what God spoke about you before you were even born. Abraham tried to have a baby with Hagar because He got tired of waiting on God’s schedule.

Its almost like God is saying, “Stop trying to schedule me. Build your own schedule but realize that some of the best things I’m going to do in your life are not going to be on your schedule.”

The greatest blessings in life are unschedulable.

If you’re stuck on what you thought this stage of life would look like or be, or maybe even what you thought your day would be like, you are going to miss the gift. You have to wait on the gift.

God wants you to depend on Him

When God is resetting our schedules, what we’re calling interruptions are really invitations.

When Jesus said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid. Just believe.” When He got to the house, his little girl was dead to the other people. But to Jesus she was just sleeping, because He has His own schedule.

Heaven has a schedule. Heaven has a purpose. Heaven has a blueprint.

How many times have we sent our schedule to the Lord just to say, “Lord, I want to reschedule this.”? That time were so stressed out, or depressed, or so confused. And your trying to control the timing, to control the schedule.

We serve an unscheduable God. And we need to thank Him for unschedulable blessings.

We can’t control how things unfold in our lives, so we just have to wait. Not because we’re lazy, but because we know God loves us.

Some of the best stuff God will do in your life will not be on your schedule.

So when your waiting for the gift. Ask God, say to Him, “You give me the direction, and I’ll supply you with the details.”
