First, let me say, I just took a snapshot of the time on my phone. Currently at this writing, my clock says 3:37am. But, when I first wrote the title of this writing on paper so that I could stop saying it over and over again in my head in order to not forget it, the time was 3:34am.

Why does the time matter? At the moment, the time matters because I cant remember what time it was that I went to go to sleep. I am seriously thinking that it was after midnight. Yet, I was clearly awakened a little after 2:30am, and while I was feeling some type of way (not about being awakened, lol) but about my health, and while I was feeling that my body was fighting me (a health issue that I am leaving in the hands of the LORD), I found myself singing a song that I first heard sung at my husband’s choir rehearsals. Here are the words I was singing…

“He is there, ALL THE TIME. He’s there, ALL THE TIME. When you feel like your problems are more than you can bear HE IS THERE ALL THE TIME.”

While laying my own burdens before the LORD and just worshipping the LORD so early in the morning, I next found myself talking to the Lord about a lot of random stuff. I couldn’t even tell you why some of the things I found myself talking to the Lord about was coming up. It was a lot of what I had been conversing with others about during the previous day. (I tend to review my conversations before the Lord in prayer.) All I know is that I clearly remember saying, “I really need to STOP judging.”

You see, sometimes people send to me videos of different situations that I otherwise would not be aware of and I am asked about it – most recently is this KEION HENDERSON issue with the $4 million dollar request to help him rebuild his church. Actually, that is exactly what I found myself talking to the Lord about at 3 something in the morning in my prayer closet. He is whom was on my mind when I said, “I really need to stop judging.”

You see, I kept seeing Exodus chapter 35 where God told Moses to ask the people for gold, silver, and bronze; blue, purple and scarlet threads; goats hair and linens and more, and I was being asked what made what Keion Henderson asked different. I thought I was being corrected for some of the things I shared from the Word of God in reference to what little I knew based upon what I was shown. So I responded to the Holy Spirit that “I really need to stop judging”. I was repentant, but the Holy Spirit was not letting me loose with that one, and I literally found myself before the Lord considering the request of Keion Henderson as it relates to the amazing problem that happened in Exodus chapter 36. But it was the next thing that I was made to look at that let me know that I needed to write what I was being shown.

You see, I still find it crazy that I was awakened from my sleep and brought into my prayer closet to sit in prayer before the Lord about someone I did not know. I was paying attention to everything that I was hearing and speaking, as I was being shown the amazing problem that Moses had to deal with when it came to the building of the tabernacle in the wilderness. But, what I was shown next dropped me into my next problem – do I write this out or do I do a YouTube video?

Keion Henderson was clearly on my mind when I found myself remembering a conversation I had at the beginning of the week (or the end of last week) about Sarah, the wife of Abraham, and her suggestion to him to sleep with Hagar. I said, “If I am supposed to write this, I need a title for it”. That is when I heard “The Possible Impossible”. I began repeating that over and over until I was able to get to some pen and paper to begin recording everything.

---

Now let me make this clear before I get started sharing what I was shown. I am nobody, and this that I am sharing is not a judgment of Keion Henderson at all. I keep mentioning him because he is who was used to teach me the lesson that I am about to share here – a lesson that might just bless him also.

Remember, I started by saying that I said to the Lord that I “need to stop judging”. God said that HE will clean HIS house first and I believe that is what was happening to cause me to say that I need to stop judging. I was getting ready to receive something, unbeknownst to me at the time, and I was first being reminded that what I was about to receive was just as much a lesson for me as it is for everyone. So, I was reminded of the woman caught in the act of adultery and how Jesus said, “He who has no sin cast the first stone.”

LISTEN, I have no stones to throw.

NONE!!!

I am not even qualified to stand next to a rock quarry where stones and pebbles can be found. So, off the top, I want to say that what I am preparing to share is not my throwing stones at all. I am here because of a conversation that happened between the LORD and I that the people need to hear and that Keion Henderson needs to hear.

So, if you know him, or know how to reach him please share this with him. Really. He needs to hear this.

Why?

Because the day before I even knew a Keion Henderson existed, I saw a YouTube short that he did where he said that “no weapon formed against him shall prosper.” Here is the link to the short that I saw, on YouTube, not knowing who he was, or what he was in the news and conversation topics about – that revelation came later.

As I already stated, at the time I first saw this I knew nothing about him or his wife. I still do not know them personally, and not even casually via social media. I am not on Facebook so I had no idea what was transpiring. What I know of his wife is what I heard, which is that she is the ex wife of a former sports figure (I don’t know who, and I am really not about to look it up to find out). I also was told that his ex wife is on some tv reality show about wives or ex wives. I honestly don’t know the name of it and I am not about to look that up either for this writing. If you know, you know. If you don’t, it really has no bearing on what I am about to write about.)

Yesterday, I was sent a TikTok link (that I could not open because I do not have a TikTok account) about him asking his church for $4 million dollars to rebuild his church.

“WHAT?!” was my initial reaction when I saw the title of the TikTok. So, I proceeded to search YouTube to see if I could find something about it there. That is where I found the YouTube that had been posted of him on a stage asking 2100 people to sow $21,000 for the rebuilding of the church. (Did I hear that correct?)

That became a short conversation between myself and the one who brought this to my attention. While the conversation of this request was short, it was this conversation that led me to say to the Lord at 3 something in the morning that I really need to stop judging.

[You must understand, I was awakened from my sleep, made to get up out of my bed and get into the presence of the Lord, where I was first corrected before being deposited into regarding someone whom I did not know and whom do not know me.]

Did you ask, “How did I judge?”

Well, later that night, before retiring, I was sent another video wherein there was someone doing a commentary on yet another video that Keion Henderson did. Mr. Henderson was walking around the construction site with a hard hat and he was describing all that needed to be done. While listening to the video of Mr. Henderson speaking, as well as the interjections of the commentator, I found myself reading the comments of the MAJORITY. None of which was favorable. All of which was concerned with the fact that he was asking people, who didn’t have that type of throw away money, to give to pay for a project that he and his wife (assumedly) could afford on their own. There were lots of comments, of which I will not be sharing here either. But, trust me I understood.

Did I somehow agree with all of the comments? Is that what caused me to be awakened from my sleep and thrust into the presence of the LORD regarding judging, and then shown this amazing share that I have for everyone on the matter?

Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. I feel as if I am hearing that those reading thus far think they know what I am about to say (lol). I feel like there are some who think that I am writing in support of Keion Henderson. Don’t assume. I keep mentioning Mr. Henderson because he is the vehicle that was used to deposit into me what it is that I am about to share with you – a mirror.

I keep mentioning that I was awakened because I had not been sleep for long (though when I was awakened, I felt like I had a full nights rest). I didn’t even get a chance to feel any type of way about the fact that I was wide awake while the world sleeps, for immediately I am reminded of Ezekiel 3:14…

I remember thinking to myself that I totally understood how Ezekiel felt when he said, “I went in bitterness”. But given the chance to think about how I was feeling at the moment, I realize that I didn’t feel bitterness because, ironically, this past Saturday I had the conversation with the Lord (and shared with some of the members of my family), that I want to do as Jesus did whom said, “I have come to do the will of my Father who sent me.” (John 6:37-39) So, the attitude that I have right now is, let me make myself some coffee and grab myself a bowl of cherries and get ready for this journey in writing which I know will be amazing.

Ok, so that is my little introduction on how it is that I found myself here writing about that which I am getting ready to share with you, The POSSIBLE Impossible, and what inspired it – Keion Henderson’s asking for $4 million dollars to build a church.

Now, let me also put this disclaimer out here at the onset: If you think I am about to make Keion Henderson and his issues my focus, you are on the wrong platform for that. My focus is and will be the word of God. Mr. Henderson is simply the vehicle that led me to sit before the LORD and receive this amazing mirror that I am about to share. That’s it. That’s all. (Yes I meant to say mirror and you will soon see why.)

---

So, with that being said, if you know me you know that you need to go and grab your bibles. LOL.

Let me start by saying that while I am predominantly using the NKJV (New King James Version), I am known to use all types of translations and versions so I encourage you to follow along in the translation of your choice.

Let’s start by looking at the foundational scripture from which we will build.

Please Turn Your Bibles to Matthew 19

I am starting here first because this is where I realize that the title I was given comes from.

As I prepare to share with you, that which I spoke with the Lord about this morning, I find myself now sitting in Matthew 19 and looking at the conversation that this young rich influential man (the Bible calls him a “Ruler”) had with Jesus.

He asks Jesus the question of what does he need to do in order to have eternal life and Jesus answers him by reminding him of the Ten Commandments. This young man must have been feeling some type of accomplished because his return response to what Jesus told him was “All these things I have kept from my youth. What do I still lack?” (Matthew 19: 20)

Somehow I get the feeling that this man wanted to hear that he lacked nothing. Somehow I get the feeling that this man was feeling some type of proud of himself. Somehow I feel as if I can see the dejected look on the face of the man when he is told, “If you want to be PERFECT, go sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”

What stands out to me is how Jesus began His response to the young man. He said, “If you want to be perfect…” Jesus had a way of uprooting the heart of matters, and humbling us in the process.

The young man had an issue of pride. I even denote a bit of a religious spirit because his pride was based upon his having kept “ALL” of the ten commandments of God. So when he asks of Jesus, “What do I still lack?”, Jesus responds by saying to him, “If you want to be perfect…”

So, basically this rich young man wanted to hear that he was perfect. (I wonder if he was a single, available, bachelor with many prospects. I just picture him as being that way. I picture him as having an Ego.) So, when Jesus told him to go and sell what he had and give it to the poor, this was not what the man wanted to hear.

The young man did not want to hear that all he amassed on earth was nothing in the kingdom of heaven, and that if he wanted to begin storing up his treasures in heaven he must sell all that he has and give it away. He left from the presence of Jesus feeling crushed. He left Jesus knowing that he was not as perfect as he originally thought he was, and this is what led to the conversation wherein it was stated that “with God all things are possible”.

Let me say that again with emphasis – WITH GOD all things are possible.

After the young rich man, who was just humbled, left, Jesus explained to those looking on the situation that it is hard for those who are financially wealthy to enter the kingdom of God. In Mark’s account of what happened, we are told that Jesus said that “it is hard for those who [trust in riches] to enter the Kingdom of God.” (Mark 10:24)

So, now, I realize that what we are looking at is a trust issue. But the question is, “Who has the trust issue?”

Understanding that this is an issue of TRUST is the key to understanding what is really happening as it relates to this situation wherein Keion Henderson has asked the people to give $4 million dollars to build/rebuild the church. Confirmation that this is a key is the video short where he was talking about how much he believes in God. I’m going to share that video one more time just to remind you and myself of what he said

I am so glad that Keion Henderson said, “I really believe the Bible” because I believe that he will understand exactly what I am sharing here.

This takes us to the next scripture that I found myself deeply pondering

Please Turn Your Bible to Genesis chapter 16

My prayerful conversation with the Lord next had me considering what happened in Genesis chapter 16 with Abram and Sarai. While you are turning there in your Bible, let me give you the back story that leads up to what I am about to share with you.

We know that Abraham was called by God to finish the journey which his father did not complete. He was called to leave his hometown and family (he was from a city called UR in Chaldea aka Babylon), and he was supposed to go to where the Lord leads him. It was a journey of faith that he was on, and this journey required trust.

[As a side note, I said that his father did not complete the journey. This is because his father, Terah, died in Haran. (See Genesis 11:27-32) So, after Terah died, God called Abram to continue the journey that his father started instead of returning to his country, Chaldea. “And he carried Lot with him.” (Genesis 12:1-4)]

God leads Abram (with his wife, Sarah, and nephew, Lot) to a place that was, at the time, inhabited by the Canaanites (the children of Canaan, the son of Ham, who was the son of Noah). Time passes and Lot, the nephew of Abraham, who grew up with his uncle, has become a very prosperous business man just like his uncle. They were both so prosperous that it became necessary for them to go their separate ways in order to keep the peace between the two of them. Lot moves his business to an area called Sodom. Again, time passes. I keep mentioning this because when reading the Bible, and we go from one chapter to the next, we do not always consider the passing of time with each comma and period.

So, Lot moves to a city that turns out to have very corrupt and immoral leadership. The result is that everyone, including Lot, ends up becoming a prisoner of war. One of Lot’s employees escape and goes to find Abram. Abram gets involved in the war because of his nephew. Abram wins and reclaims all who had been captured – not just Lot. All of the people are then returned to their homes and Abram comes into contact with Melchizedek (who is thought to actually be SHEM, son of Noah) who blesses him. This takes us to Genesis chapter 15.

After all of the commotion which makes up Genesis chapter 14, we next see that God comes to Abram in a vision and makes covenant with Abram. (I cannot wait to share the book that I’m working on called LEGACY which goes into detail about the significance of the covenants that God has made with various humans and how it impacts us all.)

Now what is so special about this covenant that God made with Abram is that it was a covenant, a promise, a gift of land that was being given to the descendants of a man who had no children. (Genesis 15:18)

DID YOU HEAR ME?????

God made a covenant with those who did not yet exist! Like, EVERY SINGLE TIME I consider this, it blows me away. This makes what God said to Jeremiah make sense too when HE said, “Before you were in your mother’s womb, I KNEW YOU.” This is so huge. This is so great. This is so beyond my mental grasp. Yet, God enables me to understand this in that I find myself thinking of and loving grandchildren and great grandchildren that are not yet in existence and wont be in existence for a while. Its one of the reasons why I write… My babies will know who I was when they read the things I wrote long after I am gone.

Anyway… [Another thing that was so special about this situation is that Abram was OLD. (lol) He was well into his 80’s.] God lets Abram know that he is going to have a lot of children. God told Abram that he was going to have so many descendants that they would be innumerable like the stars of the heaven. (Genesis 15:5-6) And Abram believed God.

Now catch this… Up until now, Sarai has not tried to help GOD. She is not even aware of this conversation. So notice that God does not mention that Abraham’s seed will be like the sands of the sea. Only innumerable like the stars of heaven. This reference was to the children that would be birthed by Sarai. Again, ABRAM believed GOD.

(I had to restrain myself not to stick so SADE or Jill Scott music in here, right here, because “Hey Sarai, Abram wants to hook up with you, girl, because tonight is the night.”)

By now you should have your Bible turned to Genesis chapter 16, which is where we are now, and there we find that Sarai, the wife of Abraham, does something that forever had an impact on the world at large. It was HOW she responded to the news God had given to Abram.

You see, when God told Abram (Abraham) that he would have children, you must know that he went back and told his wife everything that was said to him. You must be able to hear the excitement in the voice of this man, whom no doubt, has tried for years to have children with his stunningly beautiful wife. [We know that Sarai (Sarah) was stunningly beautiful in her old age because of the fact that she was taken from Abram twice by two separate kings, an Egyptian Pharoah and a Philistine king, whom both had to return her to her husband untouched. (Genesis 12:14-20; 20:1-20)] Yet, where Abram believed God and believed IN God, Sarah did not have the faith for this. (Genesis 15: 6)

It might be hard to imagine that Sarai did not believe God because she is, after all, mentioned in the Hall of Faith found in Hebrews chapter 11. (Hebrews 11:11) Yet, I want to argue this one point that many of us overlook when we find ourselves doing as Sarai did which we will be unwrapping now.

Argument #1: Hebrews 11:6 tells us that in order to please God well, we must (a) believe that He is and (b) that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

Now, I have no problem with believing that Sarai did believe that God is. We are shown throughout the Word of God that we become like whom we hang with.

Both Sarai’s father/father-in-law, and her husband believed enough in God to step out on faith and leave their homeland. So she was surrounded by the walk of faith. But, just as we learned in the story of the young epileptic man whom the nine powerless disciples could not heal, it is very possible to have faith for some things, and lack faith for other things.

In the story I just referenced, found in Mark chapter 9, the father of the boy said to Jesus, “I have faith, but where I lack, give me more.” I like how the New King James Version reads. There we are told that the father of the boy said, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” (Mark 9:24)

Now, being a woman and being human, I can understand Sarai’s unbelief.

• Imagine wanting a child so badly, and trying for years and years to get pregnant, but not being able.
• Imagine praying over and over for a child, yet receiving no answer.
• Imagine, getting to the age where women are no longer able to conceive – the age of menopause. (Sarai was well past menopause. So, Sarai was beyond believing for herself.)

She believed in God, but she did not trust in God that God could or would be able to use her body to carry a child especially with her not being as vibrant as she was in her younger years.

Sarai believed in God, but she did not know God as the One who opens and closes wombs, and that is crazy considering how God closed the wombs of all who were connected to King Abimelech when he took Sarah from Abram. When he released her, and Abraham prayed for him, all the women were able to conceive and bear children. (Genesis 20:17-18) It is here that we learn that God is the one who opens wombs and closes wombs. Let me add that this is both physically, literally, figuratively and spiritually. CATCH.

Sarai believed in God, but she did not know God to be a rewarder of faith. Why? This is possibly because she lost faith to carry a child in her womb a long time ago. It was a bitter pill to swallow for her, but when she entered into the pause of her life, she had resigned herself to the flawed understanding that this was her LOT in life. CATCH (By the way, Lot was her little brother.)

“But, Sarai, God is GOD!” and she was soon to find this out, but not before she made a mistake that is still resonating to this very day.

Personally, I will never understand how Sarai could do what she did. Listen, I am a woman. I am also a mother. So while I can speak from a woman’s point of view, I cannot speak from the point of view of a woman who desires to birth a child, but cannot. I don’t know that craving. But, I do know that this craving still exists today, and that there are women who will hire other women to carry a child in their womb for them. It is called Surrogacy. Nevertheless, I do not know of a woman today who would want a baby so badly that they will tell their husband to literally climb in bed with another woman. Today, the idea of a husband having sex with another woman is a deal breaker – a marriage breaker. Yet, that is what Sarai told her husband to do.

Today, we have technology wherein the doctor can extract the egg cell from the womb of the woman and the sperm cells from her husband and fertilize the egg outside of the womb. Today the husband is not required to actually lay down in bed with another woman. Today, the technology that exists enables the doctors to either place the fertilized egg cell back into the womb of the woman it was taken from, place the fertilized egg into the womb of a surrogate, or grow the fertilized egg cell outside of the womb in an incubator. How crazy is that?!

Again let me emphasize that this technology did not exist during the time of Abram and Sarai. Abram literally had to lie in bed and have sexual intercourse with Hagar in order for Hagar to become impregnated. Also, let’s not forget that not everyone gets pregnant on the first try. I’m just saying! While we know this is truth, we don’t know how many tries it took for Abram and Hagar.

(“Sarai, I hate it for you that you would have to endure that. Abram, I have no words still because I have sat before the Lord with this issue many times and I still say that you did not have to listen to the voice of Sarai on this. SMH! Just like Adam didn’t have to eat that fruit. You consulted the Lord for everything, but you did not consult the LORD on this. I know you didn’t because that was a defilement of the marriage bed. Yeah, there are just some things about that time I do not understand and I can appreciate that I was not born during that time. I need to not judge. SMH!”)

Can you imagine the mental duress that Sarai had to have been under for her to suggest to her husband to sleep with another woman?

Can you imagine the mental duress that Sarai had to have been under during the time that her husband was having sex with another woman, and she knew it?

But apart from all of that, here is the real question: Why did Sarai think that she needed to help God?

This is the part. This is the area where her faith in God, her belief in God failed. This is the same area wherein many fail today.

This is what you will hear when people try to excuse why they do as Sarai did:

FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD

It’s almost frustrating to write that now because what I know is that this statement is taken so far out of context. Many would use this statement to justify their choices to rely on their own strength. Many use that statement not realizing that the works is simply obedience to do what God tells you to do. That is it. But, how do you know what God wants you to do if you do not get before the Lord and request the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding needed for your situations and how to proceed. Instead, we are being led to believe that our faith means that we will apply our strength to accomplish that which God says to us. But is that an accurate understanding???

Sarai pushed ahead instead of asking her husband to consult with the LORD (if she did not know how). I am overwhelmed with looking in this mirror and understanding that we, the people, have a tendency to do our own thing too, just like Sarai. We step out on our own understanding, even though God’s Word tells us not to. We try to work things out of our own strength. When we do this we mess things up. We make matters worse when all we needed to do was to trust in the Lord. Trusting the LORD does not mean that we do not do nothing. It means that when we do not know the answer, we seek GOD for the answer and direction (like HE told us to) and we believe with expectation that HE will answer us like HE answered Joseph and Daniel and so many others that we read about in the Old Testament.

Now I have spent more time here than I have wanted to. For real. I simply needed to point out that Sarah did not believe the word that she was told came from God. She did not believe that she and Abraham would parent a child. Her not trusting God to do it was because she was leaning upon her own understanding of her own strength. She knew that she couldn’t carry a child because she had already tried to no avail. Her not trusting God to do what she deemed was impossible only brought more problems for her and Abraham. That is the point that I wanted to emphasize.

What does this have to do with Keion Henderson?

One thing I have learned about God, from my study of the Bible, is that God uses IF/THEN clauses when HE makes covenants. So, lets consider the IFs and see if it aligns with God’s Word.

If Keion Henderson believed that God was telling him to build a larger, bigger, better church, he should also trust God for the resources to do so and not look to the people to bring it to pass. In seeking God for the direction of this project, the glory would then be all God’s when it comes to pass.

Listen, God is known to asking us to do things that are so much bigger than what we think we are capable of doing. Look at Noah who built an Ark to preserve life to the specifications that GOD told him. Look at Ezekiel who was asked if dead bones could live again and then told exactly what to do to bring the vision to pass. Neither one of those two leaned upon their own understanding. Whom they leaned on was GOD.

If God told him to build a bigger church, with a bunch of extra XYZ, and if God told him to ask a specific number of people (2100 or 21000) for a specified amount ($21000) wouldn’t God have also told him who to ask, and shouldn’t that have been done in private as opposed to publicly announcing it from a platform?

You see, God will not contradict HIS own word in reference to giving.

Like Keion Henderson stated in a YouTube Short, I also really do believe in the Word of God. I believe that everything that we experience in life, any challenges, any trials, any periods of uncertainty, the ups and the downs are all portrayed in some way in the Word of God for our direction and correction. With that being the case, I was not surprised when the Lord caused me to remember the time when HE called for Moses to go and ask the people to bring in an offering. I want to take a moment and look at that now.

Please Turn Your Bibles to Exodus chapter 35

Once again, I will share a background story while you are turning to Exodus chapter 35 in your Bibles.

So the people had just come off of having gotten in trouble for the calf worship that they did while Moses was gone the first time for 40 days getting the ten commandments and instructions from God. Therefore they were a little chaff from the discipline that they had received, and they were acting like they had some since for the next 40 days that Moses was gone to once again receive the Ten Commandments written on stone since he broke the first set of commandments in anger. While in the presence of the Lord, God gave him specific instructions for the people to follow.

So in Exodus chapter 35, Moses has returned and he begins to instruct the people regarding the building of the tabernacle. He begins by saying, “These are the words which the Lord has commanded you to do:” This part is important because how and what we build matters.

IF you are working on something that the Lord did not have you to work on, then what you are doing is in vain. God’s Word is clear about this, and that which we are building will be tested as if by fire.

So Moses is speaking to the people the instructions from the Lord to build, with what, and how.

First of all, in these verses, God requested that Moses ask of the people but it was clear that the offering had to come from a willing heart. No one was singled out, and no one was given a specific amount that they were told to give.

Hint, hint: They were told what to give, but not how much. Again the emphasis was that the giving was supposed to come from those who had a willing heart.

Keion Henderson could have possibly been told to build larger. He could have possibly been given an instruction to build something much greater than himself. He is not the only one to whom this has happened.

Noah was 500 years old when he was told to build an ARK that would have been large enough to house himself and his family, all of the animals, and even other people and their families if they would have listened. No where in Genesis chapters 6-8 do you see Noah asking the people around him to help him build and to fund the vision that God gave him.

At the mouth of two or three witnesses right?

Please Turn Your Bibles to Ezekiel chapter 37

Ezekiel is yet another witness that I am led to consider. He was given a vision that was so much greater than him. He was taken to a valley of dry bones and asked if they could live. He did not proceed to then tell God how the work needed to be done. He did not stir the pot with his own finger, like Sarai did, trying to work out the problem in his own strength. He did not jump in and begin working trying to make things work, like Saul did. Let’s look at what Ezekiel did do.

Ezekiel was faced with an impossible problem that became possible when he turned to rely on the Lord for direction instead of on his own understand. God told Ezekiel exactly what to do, and like Noah, Ezekiel did just so. He didn’t add or take from what he was told to do.

Now, while Keion Henderson’s current situation was used as a backdrop for this writing, don’t get it twisted. We are a mirror to one another, so we should be able to look at Keion Henderson’s situation and get the instructions given to us.

What has God told us to do? Have we done it? If not, why not? Did we make excuses for why we could not do what the Lord has spoken to us?

I would be remiss if I didn’t give you at least two witnesses to prove to you that others saw their own weaknesses and didn’t think that they were capable of accomplishing that which God was calling them to:

• Moses: ( Exodus 3:1-4:17) Moses gave all kinds of excuses for why he could not go before the Pharoah to speak. He almost made God angry with him. The Lord corrected him.
• Jeremiah: (Jeremiah 1:4-10) Jeremiah tried to give excuses for why he could not do what the Lord asked of him. The Lord corrected him.

Here is what we must remember:

While I initially wrote that I believe this will bless Keion Henderson, my real hopes is that those who read this will understand this for themselves and not look at the missteps of another.

I am learning that when I need, I am to go to God. When I have questions, I am to go to God. I am not to try to work things out for myself because that will only cause problems. Sarai tried to be instrumental in Abraham having a child. She was instrumental alright, but it wasn’t to come to pass how she tried to work things out.

Another example that we briefly looked at was that of King Saul. Pushing ahead caused him to lose the mantle of kingship all because he did not trust in the Lord and wait on the Lord. Pushing ahead also cost him his sanity and ultimately his life.

Every day we are presented with opportunities to trust God. It might not be with issues such as that which Keion Henderson is being entrusted with, but that is okay because whatever your issue is, it is what you can handle.

Wait on the Lord. Trust in the Lord’s timing. Know that the Lord’s timing is not your timing. Be patient. God is and has fully equipped you so that all you have to do is STAND and watch how the Lord brings to pass the visions that HE has given to you when you are obedient to HIM.

I don’t know that this is finished.

I think that this is just the beginning, of what I do not know. But I am willing to wait on the Lord and trust HIM for and through the process.
