A f t e r w a r d s

Everyone goes through tough times in their life.  Jesus said that in this world you would have tribulation but to fear not, I have overcome the world.  There is no getting around the fact that we must face difficult times.  The good news is that whenever there is a time of lack, drought, recession or even famine, there will always be an afterwards.

   When Israel was enslaved in Egypt, they were forced to labor four hundred years making bricks with no straw.  This took place for exactly four hundred years.  God told Abraham that His people would become enslaved and in bondage to a strange nation.  God said that afterward that Israel would come out with great substance. 

Psalm 105:37
He brought them forth also with silver and gold and there was not one feeble nor sick person among them.

    Millions of people carried all of the riches and wealth from the entire nation of Egypt in a single day.  No one was sick and everyone had plenty of money.  This is the place that God desires for you to be.  Just like 3 John 2 says...Beloved I wish above all things that you would prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers.  
    There is an afterward scheduled for you and it has been authorized by the salvation of the Lord through Jesus Christ.  When the afterward occurs you will find yourself amazed at the place you will be in.  

    God told Israel that they would be in captivity for 70-years in Babylon as well.  Just as God told Israel there would be an afterwards in Egypt, He told Israel the same thing about Babylon.  When the 70-years were accomplished they came out and returned to the land of their fathers.  In Psalm 26 Israel sang the song of deliverance from captivity and they said that they were like them that dreamed.  How would you like to be in a place where your dreams come true?
    God promised to restore the years that were eaten by the enemies of your life and to release dreams and visions as a result of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.  I beleve that the afterward moment will occur for you when you declare what God says about your life.  Open your mouth and declare the word of the Lord over your finances, health and family. Do it in faith believeing and receiving in the mighty name of Jesus.
