God Backfills

From: Boyd Bailey Ministries

Joel 2:25 "So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten."

God specializes in redeeming rough seasons in our lives. What has become a devastating transition, He can use to love you into a closer relationship with Him. Where else can you go for eternal life than to the One who is eternal? Allow God to backfill this blot on your past. He can rebuild what has been broken, even destroyed.
 
Trust God during this time of turmoil. God wants to backfill your loss. Your broken relationships that are buried in a cistern of hurt, He can retrieve with forgiveness. Into your financial black hole, He can shine the light of His provision and opportunity.
 
In Christ, your best days lie ahead. Invite the Holy Spirit to backfill your soul with His fruit of love, joy, peace, self-control, purity, forgiveness, and humility. What God fills proves faithful. What God fills, He controls and comforts. Use the lessons of the past as a reminder for the Holy Spirit’s filling in the present. His backfilling results in faithfulness going forward.
