but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
This word is one that is a difficult thing for us to do when we have hoped for days, months, and even years that God would send us our Boaz so that we can walk hand and hand with him in life. After having hoped and not seen the manifestation in the season we believed God would send him. But I offer encouragement today as the Lord says if you will not grow weary in your waiting, not faint in your journey, hold fast to the profession of your faith, God is going to do just what he said at the appointed time.
Be careful as you wait and be aware than many shall come and speak things that sound similar to what God has promised you. These are counterfeits. When a counterfeit is checking for you and you somehow don't recognize that he is not authentic my best sisterly advice would be, to back up and wait a minute. Continuing to move forward will entangle your emotions so that you will not be able to think clearly in how you should handle the relationship. You don't want to end up in a relationship with someone who is not mapped out to be in your life, your purpose, and your destiny. This will only prolong the things that God has designed for you to walk in and limit your ability to walk into places God has carved out for your purpose.
There are a few significant things I believe counterfeits will engage in a relationship. The first, they will want you to change to accommodate their purpose and two they will block yours. Everything else will run along those lines within the relationship. With a counterfeit, you will not be good enough for what they have in mind for their lives, so they will work to make you more suitable to their life and purpose. But when your true man of God surfaces he will not need you to change to fit into his life, because you will be everything that God has told him that you should be. Don't change yourself to accommodate someone who is supposed to be your match. If he's your match then you shouldn't have to downgrade your value to make yourself match. Don't change what is acceptable to you in a reltationship just so you can be in one. You do not have to reinvent yourself to match with someone, because if its God, it's God. If you have to downgrade then it's not. If he thinks he has to change you to make you good enough, it's not God. You want the one who looks at you and see's a queen made just for him, not someone he believes he can transform into a queen. He doesn't value you.
Don't think somehow your love is going to change a man into someone you want him to be. Many have thought this very thing. Especially the ones who run after someone else's husband thinking that you would be a better fit for him than his present wife. You can't raise a grown man and you can't make a boy be a man. Loving him is not going to make him get off drugs and stop drinking. Loving him is not going to make him want to be saved. I'm talking to single sisters, not married sister right now. (Because we all know that a sanctified wife, covers the husband.) Don't sow your time and love into someone that God only called you to minister to, not to get involved with. Sometimes we get involved with people God only wanted us to pray for and get delivered. Instead of leading them, we end of needing them and we should have only been doing what God told us to do and nothing more. Don't let the anointing on your life make you jump into relationships that are not God ordained. Because if the relationship does not fit the plan and purpose of God on your life, then it is not the will of God for you to be in it. God will not send someone who looks almost like what you were looking for, he sends the one who is exactly what you need. I said exactly.
Secondly, he will block your purpose by putting stumbling blocks by wanting you to come in line with his life but ignoring the thing that God has put in you to birth. How can two walk together except they are in agreement?(Amos 3:3) Will you come into agreement with someone who wants to kill your baby? This is not the will nor the purpose of God. God yokes you together with someone who IS in agreement with who you are and where you're going, not someone who kills the destiny within you. Changing yourself to fit with someone who is not in agreement with who you are will cause you to abort the thing that God has given you to push into the earth. He should be your spiritual cheerleader and coach, encouraging you to push, not abort.
If the relationship does not fit with the plan of God for your life, then it is not will of God for your life. If it doesn't fit, don't force it, just let it go and wait.
