THE GOOD, BETTER AND BEST DAYS IS NOW AND AHEAD: BE CREATIVE, INNOVATIVE AND READILY READY FOR THE NEW DAWN OF DOING LIFE DURING AND AFTER WHATEVER!
“For SURELY THERE IS AN END; and thine EXPECTATION shall not be CUT OFF” Proverbs 23:18
Surely there’s an end to everything under the sun – [whether it’s the lost of job, marital breakdown, relationship disruption, bereavement of love one, infectious pandemic diseases and sicknesses, fatal accident, war, economic meltdown and such like] – for there is no different with God in WHATEVER. It thus mean every challenges and difficult circumstances are certainly and surely TIMED to stop or come to an END point one day, irrespective of the days, weeks, months and years of that WHATEVER – Proverbs 23:18.
And life will always roll in a NEW action and motion again when an end is come for WHATEVER betides one. It’s how much READINESS and PREPAREDNESS you are making to forge ahead for yourself and all about you at the dawn day and dawn time when it comes – is the very important thing to think and ponder through. Your intentional mindset setting for an onward and upward trajectory, is so important if you intend to be the one in charge, control and in DOMINON to reign and rule in your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead – (Proverbs 21:31; Proverbs 16:1, 3, 7, 9).
There’s one scripture that I have known, that have kept me going, almost in every passing phase of challenging times in my life, to deal with matters during and after WHATEVER in the work of FAITH in Christ Jesus stead. That scripture is this:
“. . . 8 BETTER IS THE END OF A THING THAN THE BEGINNING THEREOF: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. 9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools. 10 SAY NOT THOU, WHAT IS THE CAUSE THAT THE FORMER DAYS WERE BETTER THAN THESE? FOR THOU DOST NOT ENQUIRE WISELY CONCERNING THIS . . .” Ecclesiastes 7:7-12.
More so, I know that having a SCRIPTURAL perception of life, is an attitude that makes one to perceive that their today is far better than yesterday, and that has helped and kept me going; and scriptural context in perception still helps me to stay strong and courageous, knowing that the best of anything it’s in the new start up and not in the old.
And the knowing that God’s act of faithfulness and steadfastness are NEW every morning – is an awesome plus on each passing day (Lamentations 3:23); and by this confidence and assurance in SCRIPTURAL context in perception, there’s no reason why one should not live in the present tense of God to define ones life for today and tomorrow. Hence I can say that your GOOD, BETTER and BEST DAYS is come and is coming out of the WHATEVER you are dealing with at the moment to advance in life and godly living in Christ Jesus stead.
Just as I will always say that the New Testament, the New Creation which is of the New Covenant and such like, is far more superior testimony as in the fulfilment to the Old Testament of the Old Covenant and such like injunctions of the old – it beholds me as it becomes imperative, that one keep away and withdraw from the concept of always looking back and thinking of the good old days instead of dealing with the present.
Regrets and living in the past will not elevates any, no matter the devotion to mourning and murmuring and complaining of the past and it’s history – both in the bad or good terms. And dwelling in the past doesn’t indicates a good sign to innovative, creative and wise up to make good of the present in order to ensure and endorse the beauty and glory so much desired of you – especially for your today and your tomorrow. It’s time for a NEW you to SPRING up for the NEW dawn day that’s about to come forth from you after the WHATEVER; because your world should not be the same again and you need not be – A LEFT BEHIND CHRISTIAN.
Am emboldened to inform you that the way you live and do life OUGHT to change whenever the WHATEVER is done away with in one’s life. And if you do not PREPARE and TRAIN yourself for the NEW you to emerge in order to EFFECTUALLY deal with the changes that will come up after your WHATEVER – you may live to regret for learning nothing whenever the WHATEVER shutdown or locked down or standstill moment is done and dusted. It’s a wise decision for you to do life meaningfully and purposefully as a consequence of the preparation you’ve made for your emergence from the known and unknown WHATEVER you’ve been through.
Just know that our ways of PRUDENCE – the utilising and managing of the resources – of TIME, FINANCE, EFFORT (Physical/Mental Exertion), MATERIAL and PEOPLE, in order to earn a living may likely change in many ways after WHATEVER; and if you’ve not made yourself readily ready to adapt with the changes, there will be a left behind to catch up with, in the reality of change that may evolve.
And I behold you not to whine by crying out loud – by saying things as one that’s been left behind, as to – THE FORMER DAYS ARE BETTER THAN THE PRESENT. This is simply because you are not living in the NOW because the FORMER days have a grip on you and you’ve forgotten that the so called former days can’t define your current and present day of today.
It’s time to look inward for your onward and upward trajectory match to the better and best of you in life and grace. Our God is the God of the now and tomorrow as He’s of yesterday; and He’s good and faithful to see us through life phase – making the good and the bad to work together for our good Romans 8:28. But you must give God something to work with, to ensure you are thoroughly through and through with your inward (insight) and outward (foresight) plan, purpose and pursuit.
I PRAY YOU KNOW WELL TODAY AND ALWAYS THAT – THE GOOD, BETTER AND BEST DAYS IS NOW AND AHEAD – THEREFORE, BE CREATIVE, INNOVATIVE AND READILY READY FOR THE NEW DAWN OF DOING LIFE DURING AND AFTER THE WHATEVER.
I pray you have a GRACIOUS and GRACEFUL days in the PRESENT TIME and in the TIME AHEAD that might evolve in everyway in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

FOR THOU DOST NOT ENQUIRE WISELY CONCERNING THIS. 11 Wisdom is good with an inheritance: and by it there is profit to them that see the sun. 12 For WISDOM is a DEFENCE, and MONEY is a DEFENCE: but the EXCELLENCY OF KNOWLEDGE is, that WISDOM GIVETH LIFE to them that have it” Ecclesiastes 7:7-12.
