This is an excerpt from my bestselling book "Enjoy God's Best for Your Life."
God likes secrets.
He kept a secret from Abraham, then gave him a son. He kept a secret from Jacob, then reconciled him to his son, Joseph. He kept a secret from Joseph, but eventually made him a governor of Egypt, enabling him to save his family from famine. He kept a secret from Moses, then ordered him to set his people free.
He kept a secret from the Israelites, then saved them from slavery. He kept a secret from David, then made him a king. He kept a secret from Daniel, then revealed to him the meaning of visions and dreams. He kept a secret from Peter, then made him a fisher of men. He kept a secret from Paul, and made him an apostle to the Gentiles.
God might be keeping a secret from you, a solution to a problem, an unanswered prayer, healing, or blessing. He keeps secrets. He likes the drama of it all, sometimes. He keeps secrets so we can grow in trusting Him, for He knows what he is doing with our lives.
Another reason why God likes secrets? Because He loves surprises.
Is he keeping anything from you? Get ready to be surprised!
Enjoy the God of surprises.
