How will this be? Asking God for more explanation for His prophecies concerning your life

God likes giving people prophecies and dreams that seem impossible to attain by human calculations and strategies. One time, I heard a man of God say that God gives big dreams, so you’ll need faith in Him to trust that He will accomplish them in your life. That is true, and that was the case for Mary.

After the angel Gabriel told her that Jesus would be born through her and that He would be great, called the Son of the Highest and a lot more magnificent description of Jesus (Luke 1:33), she responded, “How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?” – Luke 1:34 (KJV). Mary was betrothed unto Joseph, so she knew Joseph. But that kind of baby the angel was talking about that she’ll bear, she didn’t understand how possible that would be. Sometimes, that is how God announces His prophecies in our lives. He gives us big things that require us to depend on Him for accomplishment.

Just as Mary asked the angel for more explanation, can you ask God for more explanation on how He is going to fulfill the big dreams He has put in your heart? It is not good to receive divine prophecies and think of fulfilling them by your own craft and means. Go for God’s method. Pray about it, and wait enough for God’s answers before stepping out to execute that dream.

You are a blessing!
