“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” James 1:17 (KJV)

It is rare to find anybody who doesn’t want gifts. On festive occasions such as Christmas, Easter, birthdays, weddings, and naming ceremonies, there is the giving and exchange of gifts. Sometimes we are not happy when we unwrap our gifts and the gifts don’t meet our expectations, however. The only person who can give beyond our expectation is God Almighty (Ephesians 3:20). He only has good and perfect gifts for His children.

Dear beloved, what kind of gifts do you want from God? Remember that He only gives good and perfect gifts to His children, so whatever you have asked from Him is being worked out for you. It is good and perfect, so it will take time; during this time, He will work on you to be able to receive and be a good steward of the gift. Be of good cheer and wait in faith. He gave Isaac to Abraham, Rebekah to Isaac in marriage, David to Jesse, and, above all, Jesus Christ as a perfect gift to the whole world. Keep trusting Him in His Word, and your faith will be rewarded with a good and perfect gift. Hallelujah! Be expectant!

Prayer Point: Dear heavenly Father, I believe you have a good and perfect gift in this area (mention the area) for me. I will keep trusting you till you reward my faith. Amen!
