DAILY VITAMIN

- The Best Has Been Reserved For You

"But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” (1 Cor 2:9 NKJV)

God says "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11). His mind is always fluttering around your welfare, and how to best present it to you. From the beginning He perfected it and purposed to bring to pass in its time.

I found something interesting in Isaiah 4. Verse 2 tells us that there are those whose names are written down to escape the destruction. It means the reason why you escaped the hardship that ravaged your country and survived the accident, the illness, or the hunger and tribulation is because God has your name written down. Remember what He said about Israel in Isaiah 43:4: He will give others in your place. Many have suffered in the midst of plenty, but it says you had and will yet have plenty in the midst of suffering because of Him.

And how do I know this?

Verse 3-4 says being God's people, He reserves the lushest bounty and the richest fruits for us all. 

Do you know what that means? He's not giving you what you get by with, but with what you can be overwhelmed by, till it can overflow and feed others as well (2 Cor 9:11). 

Then verse 5-6 promises protection from anything that can take it away. Maximum assurance of security He offers. That has got to be favour--God's Word sprinkled over you. The scripture says wherever God sprinkles His Word, it rains prosperity in everything and everywhere it is sent regardless of geolocation (Isaiah 55:11), turning thorny situations (or hardship) into figs (abundance) (Isaiah 55:12-13).

Thus, expect it to happen, because He reserves the best for us.
