God Can Make Up for Lost Time

Time is one of the most precious gifts we have, yet many people live with the regret of wasted years—decisions they wish they had made sooner, opportunities they feel have slipped away, or setbacks that have delayed their progress. If you have ever felt like you are running behind in life, I have good news for you: God can make up for lost time!


One of the most powerful promises in Scripture is found in Joel 2:25, where God declares, “I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten.” This means that no matter how much time seems to have been lost, God has the ability to restore and redeem it. What took others years to accomplish, God can make happen for you in moments. He is not limited by human timelines—He is the author of time itself!


Many times, we equate delays with failure, but in God’s plan, a delay is not a denial. Look at Joseph—he spent years in slavery and prison for a crime he didn’t commit, yet in one day, God lifted him from the prison to the palace (Genesis 41:14). What seemed like wasted years were actually a divine setup for his ultimate purpose.


When God steps into your situation, He can accelerate your progress beyond human explanation. Sarah gave birth to Isaac at 90 years old (Genesis 21:1-2), proving that age and time do not limit what God can do. Even if you feel like you’ve missed your moment, God can create new opportunities that surpass anything you’ve lost.


God’s restoration doesn’t come by wishful thinking—it comes through faith and obedience. Isaiah 40:31 reminds us that “those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength.” Waiting on God is not passive; it’s an active trust that keeps moving forward in faith, believing that He will bring His promises to pass.


The enemy wants you to believe that it’s too late, but God says otherwise. If He could restore Job’s fortunes and give him double for his losses (Job 42:10), He can do the same for you. No matter what you’ve lost—time, opportunities, relationships, or even years of wandering—God is able to restore and reposition you for greatness.


So, take heart. You are not behind. You are right where God needs you to be, and He is more than able to make up for lost time.


Trust Him, keep moving forward, and watch Him restore all that seemed lost.

I believe in you!

Looking at my life today, some might assume I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth. They see the progress, the platforms, the opportunities, the impact—and they conclude, “He must have had it all figured out from the start.” But here’s the truth... I wasn’t born with a golden spoon. In fact, I wasn’t even born with a spoon at all. The circumstances surrounding my birth were far from rosy. My beginning was rough, humble, and almost forgettable by the standards of this world. There was nothing to suggest that I would one day stand where I stand today, speak as I speak today, or do what I do today. But I was helped. I was helped by God. That’s the only reason I’ve come this far. And that, dear friend, is why I’m writing this—to remind you that it doesn’t matter where or how you were born . Your background, no matter how limiting or disadvantaged, cannot stop God’s plan for your life. You may not have had the best education. You may have been born into poverty. You may have been rejected, neglected, abandoned or overlooked. But when God steps into your life , He rewrites the story. He is not intimidated by your limitations. In fact, He specializes in using the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. He lifts the poor from the dust and sets them among princes (Psalm 113:7-8). You don’t need a silver spoon, golden spoon, or any spoon at all. All you need is His help . My life is a testament to this truth: God still helps men. He still lifts. He still promotes. He still turns nobodies into wonders. And I believe the same will happen for you. If you will let Him, If you will trust Him, If you will surrender your life to Him… You will become a miracle. You will become a wonder. Your story will be one that generations will talk about. So here’s my charge to you: Stop disqualifying yourself based on your background. Stop underestimating what God can do through you. Stop comparing your journey with someone else’s. Instead, start seeking God’s help. Start walking in faith. Start declaring His promises over your life. Because your story—yes, YOUR story—is not over yet. In fact, it’s just beginning. You are next in line for a miracle. I believe in you!
