After my wife and I got married, one of the next questions people asked was, when are we having children. Our initial response was after five years of marriage. Some people would say, you can’t control when that’s going to happen. The more religious people would say, you can’t control what God’s going to do.
Gratefully, we believe the Word of God. We knew that God will give us the desires of OUR hearts. (Psalms 37:4). Our desire was to wait after five years of marriage to have children. We knew whatever we asked for in prayer, when we believe that we’ve received it, it will be ours (Mark 11:24). That whatever includes the timing of children. We knew that we didn’t have to accept what life throws at us because God gave us dominion over the earth and the free will of choice (Gen. 1:26 & Deut. 30:19).
The point of this testimony is to let everyone know that you don’t have to accept the norms of society and the experiences of others. Without our permission, other people can’t dictate how your life is going to be, demons can’t negatively impact your life, and God doesn’t control our lives or else He would be violating our free will. God established life so that the only person who controls your destiny is you. Walk in your God-ordained power (Luke 10:19).
