When God Seems Too Late | Joel Osteen

I will never be the same in jesus name god bless you I want to talk to you today about when god seems too late We all have things that we're believing for, dreams to come to pass, problems to turn around.

We've been praying, standing in faith, but nothing is happening.

Now it seems like we've missed our chance.

It's too late to have a baby.

It's too late to start my business.

Too late to break this addiction.

I've had it so long.

But many times God waits on purpose till the odds are against us.

He waits till the obstacle is too big.

So when he turns it around, there won't be any doubt.

It was his favor, his healing, his power making a way where there was no way.

Don't be discouraged when it seems too late.

You don't see how it can happen.

You're in prime position for God to show out in your life.

God told Abraham when he was 100 years old that he was going to have a baby.

Abraham's wife, Sarah, was barren.

She had never had children.

Plus, she had gone through the change of life.

God could have given Abraham this promise when he was 30 years old.

when Sarah was in her prime to have a child, or maybe when he was 40 years old, a more normal age to have a baby.

He's God.

He has everything strategically planned out down to the smallest details.

It's not like he forgot.

Or he miscalculated.

Oh, I meant to give them that promise years earlier.
