Have you ever wondered if God\u2019s GPS system is faulty or if His navigation system has a problem? I do sometimes because I have a direct line of sight to where I want to go, but God is taking me through a roundabout path.<!--more--> And I know it is God leading me, so I say to Him, \u201cBut this is where I want to go\u2026\u201d and He says, \u201cNo, turn around\u201d. But where I want to go is literally in front of me. Sometimes, we even try to help God, to give Him direction. But you and I know that God does not need direction or help. God simply knows us. Folks say, \u201cNo more waiting patiently because my God is a sharp-sharp God\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, that has been preached and peddled. A lot of people like those kinds of things and so they run into trouble with God. There are people who know that is what people want to hear so they fleece them and promise them shortcuts. God never ever promises shortcuts. God promises the Promised Land and He will take you there in the Name of Jesus. Listen, every promise of God concerning your life will come to pass, not a single one of them will fail. However, God will not promise you a shortcut to your destination because it is not always the best route <strong>For You<\/strong>. The shortest route is not necessarily the best route <strong>For You<\/strong>. It is more important to God who you are and who you have become when you arrive at the Promised Land. It is not just about getting you to the Promised Land.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, this is where a lot of people miss it. But God can do this thing, He is the Almighty God who can take me from point A to B. So, why is He taking me from point A to C to E to F, in a roundabout way? God is saying who you are or who you become when you arrive at point B is more important to Him than you arriving at point B. God has promised you children, promotion, and abundance. Who you become when you have the children, the building, and the promotion is more important to Him. Think about it, what does it cost God to credit everyone&#8217;s account instantly with ten million dollars? God really doesn&#8217;t credit people&#8217;s accounts but let&#8217;s say He chooses to do it. Think about it, what will it cost God to make everybody a billionaire?<\/p>\n<p>Nothing, there are more than enough resources on Earth to do it. And that is just Earth\u2019s resources alone. It does not cost God anything. So, why does He go through the roundabout way? It is because we are His children and God wants us to be more like Him. So, that when we get the billions as we will in Jesus Name (say Amen), we will not be bastards.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Prayer<\/strong>: Father, prepare me for the Promised Land You have prepared for me, in Jesus Name.
