Psalm 126:1-6 (AMP)
WHEN THE Lord brought back the captives [who returned] to Zion, we were like those who dream [it seemed so unreal].
2 Then were our mouths filled with laughter, and our tongues with singing. Then they said among the nations, The Lord has done great things for them.
3 The Lord has done great things for us! We are glad!
4 Turn to freedom our captivity and restore our fortunes, O Lord, as the streams in the South (the Negeb) [are restored by the torrents].
5 They who sow in tears shall reap in joy and singing.
6 He who goes forth bearing seed and weeping [at needing his precious supply of grain for sowing] shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
There are no permanent conditions or problems in the world, but in Christ Jesus, there are permanent solutions and changes. God’s ability to restore life beyond our understanding is what we can call an unbelievable turnaround.
We cry all the time for a turnaround in whatever situations we face but our tears can be seeds that will grow into a harvest of joy because God is able to bring good out of tragedy. Vs 5.
It does not matter how long you wait on the Lord; the answer to your need will certainly come by morning- God’s morning that is. Psalm 30:5.
You can go from ground zero to the mountain in one go. God can turn your situation around but only through your faith, hope, and waiting. Like the woman in 2 kings 4:1-7, we should embrace the revival God is bringing to us through our faith.
Hannah leaped from many years of barrenness to a moment of fruitfulness, and she was quick to promise or dedicate something, her precious son, to the Lord for answered prayers.
What is that condition, problem, and difficulty that you think is so great that God cannot change or turn around?
You may think you have a situation or issues that are special or different from everybody else, do not worry, God has a unique solution for you especially, He meets everyone at the very point of their needs. God does not bless you to stress you, that’s the devil’s job. Proverbs 10:22.
Sometimes we are disappointed and disillusioned when we don’t get answers to our prayer, don’t give up, God heard you and answers according to His timing and your faith but when He does answer, it will be better than you imagined. Mary and Martha felt that way but be assured that Jesus feels your pain and know when it’s best to turn the tide in your favour. John 11:1-44 and Ephesians 3:20.
When Jesus finally showed up, rather than healing a sick man, He raised a dead man back to wholeness, better than the sisters imagine and expected.
Death is the exit from the earth, there is no hope in death, no expectations, and certainly no turnaround. The resurrection of Lazarus is the biggest unbelievable turnaround recorded in the scriptures, to show us and guarantee us that nothing is impossible with God and that whatever your situation is right now, God has an unbelievable turnaround around the corner for you.
God is about to:
Turn a hopeless life into a fulfilling life.
Turn a sick person into a healthy and whole person.
Turn a weak person into a strong and able one.
Turn a lost life into a victorious life.
Turn an old, tired life into a new and vital life.
Turn a mess into a message.
Turn a test into a testimony.
Turn a trial into a triumph.
Turn a victim into a victor.
God can do anything and everything but fail. He cannot fail.
God does not give things, He gives instructions, directions, visions, and dreams and your obedience to these is what brings you the unbelievable turnaround you requested.
The instruction you obey is the future you create.
