Genesis 2:22 (NKJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2018Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n When God was done with the surgical operation on Adam and produced the perfect formation of the woman, He woke Adam from sleep and brought the woman to him. Notice that neither the woman nor the man had an input into the timing. We don\u2019t know how long Adam slept or how long it took to make the woman, and we don\u2019t know the interval between the making of the woman and the bringing of the woman to the man. God was in total control of the process and the timing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s not endeavor to rush God (as though we really could!!). God has a perfect timing to release help to us. Yes, let\u2019s ask for help but let\u2019s not seem to think that it\u2019s by our multiple asking and pressures that the help would be hastened against God\u2019s will. Any help you receive outside of God\u2019s timing is dangerous to you. Let\u2019s learn to relax in God\u2019s faithfulness. He knows we need help and He will bring help to us. We serve a great, a loving, a good and timely God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2018My Father, I refuse to fret when it seems your help delays. I know you are doing some deep work that I cannot comprehend, even if you explained it to me. I surrender to your sovereign timing and I will not doubt your goodness because goodness is your nature. And forbid me from seeking or receiving any help from any quarters, that did not come from you in your timing. Amen.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Genesis 2:22 (NKJV) \u2018Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.\u2019 When God was done with the surgical operation on Adam and produced the perfect formation of the woman, He woke Adam from sleep and brought the woman to him.
