God Moves Beyond What You Can See
"And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose." - Romans 8:28
There are times in life when your circumstances seem to close in, and no matter how hard you look for a way out, you can’t find one. It’s tempting to think that if things aren’t getting better, God must not be moving. But the way God works isn’t always linear.
It doesn’t always follow a gradual, step-by-step process. In fact, sometimes it feels like things have to get worse before they get better. Yet, it’s in these moments of hopelessness that God can completely transform your situation in an instant.
Think about how God works. He doesn’t follow our timeline or our expectations. You might feel stuck in the same pattern for what seems like forever, but that doesn’t mean God is absent. Often, He’s working behind the scenes in ways you can’t see, preparing the breakthrough you didn’t even know was coming. When you least expect it, He can take what looks like a hopeless situation and turn it around, almost like flipping a switch.
Your current circumstances, whether financial strain, relationship struggles, or overwhelming uncertainty, don’t determine how or when God is going to move. Just because you don’t see progress right now doesn’t mean it’s not coming. God’s ways are higher than ours, and His timing is perfect. He can provide for your needs in ways you never imagined, even when you don’t see a way out.
It’s important to remember that God is a provider, not just in the gradual blessings of life, but in those miraculous moments when everything changes in an instant. He can open doors you never knew existed, bring provision from unexpected places, and make a way where there seems to be no way.
When you find yourself in a dark place, hold on. God is not limited by what you can see or understand. Trust that He is working, even when it feels like nothing is happening. And when the time is right, He will move in ways that will amaze you.
Your circumstances don’t define His ability to provide, He will meet your needs, often in the most surprising and powerful ways. Keep trusting, keep waiting, and keep believing that God will provide exactly what you need, exactly when you need it.

This message is exactly how God worked for me. After spending most of 2016 and into 2017 in the hospital and rehab, I found myself homeless at age 65. I didn’t want to live & thought God turned His back on me. I could only see in my tunnel vision. In June of 2017, I bought my own house. It’s a 30 year loan and I was 65 on a fixed income of Social Security. But, they gave me the loan! Praise God!! I am so very grateful and didn’t think I could buy my own house!!! God was working behind the scenes when I wanted to give up and end it all. He is so FAITHFUL to His kids! I thank Him everyday for my lovely modest home. God, you’re AWESOME!
nDon’t give up!! I know He’s working behind the scenes for you also. God bless!! Thank you Jesus for my home!!:)
This message hit me deep I needed to hear this. Sometimes even when knowing that God is working everything out in his perfect timing . I am facing an eviction , I am due on every single bill that a person can think of both car notes everything is 3 months behind I just had a baby 4 months ago. My company trucks has been in the shop more than I can count and I just purchased it in August. Talk about Luck .My husband left me a month ago right when my insurance company cancelled me. I am walking through the valley for sure . My journey has just begun because I know there is a better path before me .. I will be in touch for Part 2 . My head is still up high . God has been allowing me some how to make a payment before my cars are taking which shows me that he has not left me or my babies ..I am still in this home with my kids we are not on the streets .Right now God is giving me strength to have faith in what I can’t see.. I. Will be making Millions soon , I will have my house I own soon . Thanks ?? for your message.
nAmen
