Waiting On Man To Get Into Position

These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. Genesis 2:4-5

Things must be in place before God will act. The Bible tells us that at the beginning of creation, God had not caused it to rain upon the earth.

This does not mean that the earth was without water. Up to the time, God had caused a mist to come up form the earth to give moisture to the earth. There had been no downpour, however, from the heavenlies.

Why? Because there was not a man to till the ground.

There are some things that God has planned to do, has made provision for doing, and desires to do that He will not do until man is in place to receive what God intends to give.

Ask God today where He wants you to be spiritually so that you might receive the downpour of His heavenly blessings.
