Those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy. | Psalm 126:5
I hear the Lord saying, “Many of My children have been travailing in intersession, sowing many tears over some longstanding issues in their lives. I see their broken hearts over these things, and I have collected their tears in a bottle, even as it’s written in My Word: ‘You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book’ (Psalm 56:8).
“Beloved, nothing has escaped My notice! I am bringing you a harvest of answered prayers on the very things you’ve been crying out for. Truly, I am now bringing it full circle, and you will see My restoration! Things are now coming into bloom, as they have been germinating underground for a very long time, even though you could not see it with your natural eye. Indeed, your very tears of intercession have been watering the seeds! Watch as the answers and restoration of the things you’ve been crying out for suddenly begin to spring forth.
“I am not unjust. Have I not written in My Word, ‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know’ (Jeremiah 33:3)? I am a good Father, and when My children ask Me for bread, I do not give them a stone (Matthew 7:9). You have clung to Me, and you have continued to remain hopeful, even when things have looked hopeless in the natural. Even as Abraham, your promises have tarried, and you have felt barren. Your story isn’t over yet! It is now your time,” says the Lord!
“Remember that I did above and beyond for Abraham, even making Him the father of many nations (Genesis 17:4). When it was My appointed time, I brought to pass everything that I had promised to him and more. Though you have felt weary like a woman in labor who is long overdue, it is now your appointed time and season. I am bringing things full circle, not just in one area in your life, but in many! You will be amazed and overwhelmed at My goodness and faithfulness to you.
“My Beloved, lift your eyes! It’s harvest time, and I’m bringing things full circle! You will see and taste My goodness in the land of the living. Rejoice! I am the God Who makes all things new. Truly I make things beautiful in My time (Ecclesiastes 3:11).”
I remain confident of this:
I will see the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living (Psalm 27:13).
