Acts 3:20–21
20 … that He may send Jesus Christ, who was preached to you before, 21whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things...
As
a believer, you have a right to expect restoration of the things that
the devil has stolen from you. It may be your health, marriage or
finances, but payback time is definitely coming!
Acts 3:20–21 tells us that before
Jesus comes back for His church, we will experience “the times of
restoration of all things”. What a hope that gives us, knowing that God
will restore to us all things before Jesus returns!
My friend, if the devil is attacking
you in any area, tell God, “Father, I will not allow the devil to rob
me of my health, marriage, children or finances. These blessings are
blood-bought and paid for by Your Son!” Claim your restoration in Christ
and heaven will hear you.
There will be such times of
restoration of all things to the body of Christ that His people will
only get better, stronger, healthier, and more prosperous and glorious!
When God restores, even under the old covenant, His people always
received much more than what they had originally lost, in terms of
quality and/or quantity. How much more will our restoration be under the
new covenant because of the shed blood of the Lamb of God!
A divorcee with a teenage son came
to our church and accepted the Lord in May 2003. She began to pray for
the restoration of her marriage and the reunion of her family. She knew
that the chances of this happening were close to zero since she had not
met nor spoken with her ex-husband since their divorce 10 years ago. She
did not even know if he had remarried. But God caused their paths to
cross at a wedding at the end of 2003. Today, their relationship is
healed, and together with their son, they worship as a family in church.
Even though what happened for that
sister may not happen for every divorced person (God can give you a
better spouse and marriage), I believe that God wants you to know that
your times of restoration are here. Heaven is waiting to hear you stake
your claim for restoration!
