Summary
God doesn’t speak to you because of what’s happening in your present—He speaks because of the future He already sees. Through Abraham’s story in Genesis 18, we discover that God’s declarations aren’t responses to our current circumstances but invitations into our future reality. What if the most extraordinary words come during the most ordinary moments because God sees something bigger than we can imagine?
Key Scriptures:
+ Genesis 18:16-19. …And the Lord said, ‘Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do since Abraham will surely become a great and mighty nation and in him all the nations of the earth will be blessed…’
+ 1 John 4:19. We love Him because He first loved us.
+ Isaiah 46:10. I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come.
+ Jeremiah 1:5. Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart…
+ Ephesians 1:4. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.

| 0:22.6 | Graman packs how God's timing and speaking to us has everything to do with our future destiny, |
| 0:28.6 | and very little to do with our present circumstances. |
| 0:32.6 | What we'll discover is that when God declares something over your life, he's not speaking to where you are right now. |
| 0:40.0 | He's responding to where you're going. I hope you enjoy this beautiful exploration. Now, let's hand it over to Graham Cook. |
| 0:51.3 | You know, God loves to declare things into our lives. |
| 0:55.8 | He loves to speak to us. |
| 0:58.5 | You know, God didn't write a book and lose his voice, |
| 1:02.0 | no matter what some people think. |
| 1:05.2 | You know, God wrote a book, |
| 1:06.6 | and then he's talking to you about it |
| 1:08.7 | because he wants you to know the author. |
| 1:11.8 | And, you know, the written word |
| 1:13.5 | was preceded by the spoken word. |
| 1:18.6 | So the written word is not everything, |
| 1:21.2 | it's part of everything. |
| 1:23.6 | Yeah, but even the Bible began as a prophecy |

| 1:31.5 | Right? |
