Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow!
A few days ago, I had a Dream where I was reliving something that happened in my life in the past that I think of often with deep regret.
Each time I allow my memory to take me there, I talk to The LORD about it. And suddenly in the Dream, I was seeing myself just as I am today, and I was talking to The LORD about things I am trying to put into place for the future…… and then I work up.
As I was trying to put the pieces together of my Dream, The LORD spoke to me, “Daughter, the things that happened YESTERDAY are in the past and cannot be changed.
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not promised, but I AM highlighting Today, for it is a brand new time to live each moment to the fullest, for you will not pass this way again,” says The Father.
“Ask of Me and I will guide your steps today, to enable you to make each moment produce life and fulfillment. Stop and consider that today is the tomorrow you were focusing on yesterday.
So I have come to remind you not to put off until tomorrow, what I speak to you about today, for timing is of the essence in this hour of establishing order in every area of life,” says the Creator of all.
“I AM enabling My Chosen Remnant to finish what has been begun in their purpose as they are being fit together to work hand in head and share heart to heart with the last days Army.
I adjure you to tell My People,” says the ONLY WISE GOD, “that I AM working in ways you cannot see, for change is the order of the day.
I AM The Deliverer and My History speaks for itself. Yesterday is gone, I AM redeeming that which was lost and I AM sending MOMENTS of TRUTH that will change hurting hearts into healing hearts that suddenly received a great awakening of truth that I, The Restorer of all, turn everything for good and those wounds of yesterday will be a chapter in your story called ‘learning experiences’.
Someone needs to hear the tales of ‘beauty into ashes’ more than once,” says The LORD.
“Yes, I AM opening eyes to envision the truth ‘you are more than you think you are’. Won’t you stop and let that sink in to the depths of your soul?
I say to you, let go of YESTERDAY and trust Me TODAY.
Begin to sing the words of the John Denver song, (TODAY) ‘Today is my moment, and now is my story, I’ll laugh and I’ll cry and I’ll sing.’”
To borrow a quote from Psychologist Judith Rich on a Huffington Post:
“Here’s the single certainty every human being has to come to terms with. We each have a life. And every life has an expiration date. But unlike so many of the products we buy, our expiration date does not come stamped on our foreheads.
The human conundrum is living with the knowledge that our expiration date will surely come to pass, yet we do not know when we’ll arrive at the appointed hour.”
“Many are now in The Valley of Decision and wavering in their Faith,” says The Savior, “and are filled with frustration regarding today and have no clear direction for TOMORROW due to the fear in their hearts TODAY,” says the ONE WHO HOLDS TOMORROW.
“So, TODAY is the moment to make peace with your past,” says The Father. “It is urgent to stop wallowing in the muddy waters of despair over yesterday.
Beloved, won’t you pause and let that sink in and just FORGIVE YOURSELF and any others that have brought offense so that you can EMBRACE any and every DELAY that you see in your TOMORROW.
Remember this, beloved there’s a reason for every season and a purpose for every delay. As you grow in wisdom,” says the Father, “you will see that I send hope for tomorrow in many ways and I give vision and prophetic encouragement to give blessed assurance of my promises and to build faith in the hearts of the just. You are not given a time for I am not on your time clock but I am on the time clock of eternity,” says the Creator.
“Your times are in my HANDS. So, I say again, ‘There are some things that need to be dealt with that cannot be carried over into TOMORROW,” says The LORD.
“There are some who have settled for their familiar comfort zone that are destined to step out of ‘good’ into GREAT.
I have an open door for you NOW to step out of your comfort zone of GOOD and into GREAT for greater is HE that is in you than HE that is in the world and I have destined you for GREATNESS.
The fields are indeed white unto harvest and I AM calling you to go forth as an obedient servant to those living in darkness, says the Savior.
I have surely given you the tongue of the learned as I spoke in My Word in Isaiah 50:4. There are many who are weary and every morning they are crying out, ‘Make the World Go Away’.
They are heavy laden and need an encouraging word so won’t you say YES, LORD, HERE I AM, SEND ME?”
“The LORD GOD has given Me the tongue of disciples, So that I may know how to sustain the weary one with a word. He awakens Me morning by morning, He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple.” Isaiah 50:4 NASB.
So I leave you with these THREE… YESTERDAY, TODAY, and TOMORROW.
YESTERDAY is HISTORY, TODAY is NEWS, and TOMORROW is LEGACY.
May we CHERISH the memories of YESTERDAY and the promise of RESTORATION and REDEMPTION that The LORD has promised.
May we EMBRACE TODAY when all is NEW every morning with grace and mercy to follow where HE leads you.
May we accept the winds of change from YESTERDAY.
May we face the winds of change for TOMORROW with EXPECTANT, HOPEFUL HEARTS knowing WHO holds all of our TOMORROWS.
May we truly know TIME stands still for no man but the clock is ticking and the hour is late.
I hear The LORD saying, “Dear ONES, I AM redeeming the time and escalating that which has been promised and I AM making all things NEW.”
Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow. May we know TRUTH from yesterday, LIFE in TODAY and the WAY for TOMORROW because of WHO HE IS.
“My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.” Psalm 45:11.

Great to hear from you Doug. I so appreciate your comments. I had many ups and downs in my early years when I had my dancing school, etc but when my two sons were playing baseball at Bearden and I was a single mom working two jobs, God in HIS mercy raised up two intercessors to pray me out of the world and back to God and I realized He had a call on my life so when my sons graduated college, I sold everything I had and went to HI to Discipleship Training School with YWAM and I just kept going. May the blessings of God overtake you in 2022! Sandi
Sandi, what a nice surprise to see your walk with God. I’m not sure if you were at some of the Young Life meetings that Faye Hurley had at her house. Those times were very meaningful in my life. Thanks for sharing these great scriptures and issuing a call for all to ask God into your life and change the way we will spend eternity as well Today.
Blessings to you and family,
Doug
Yes, Doug, I was at some of the Young Life meetings and have many fond memories of many gatherings at Faye’s house. SO good to catch up with “high school friends” after all these years. Abundant blessings, Sandi
I agree with everything I read in this blog post Even though I am not really a Christian.
Hello Kathy, It has been a very long time. I so appreciate you taking time to comment and so blessed that you agree. I never have sent anything to our “high school” group before but so wanted to send this out to you all. As we get older, it seems I am more conscious of what it means to live life and I tend to look back on the the life I have lived. I am grateful to still be alive even in our upside down chaotic world. Christianity itself is very personal and everyone has at some time or other been washed in religion teaching but never entered into a personal relationship with Jesus. Many blessings and love to you, Sandi
Wow! What an on time word! Thank you for the uplift, thank you for the truth and thank you for doing what God has called you to do.
Stay blessed.
Bridget
Hi Bridget, I am very grateful that you were lifted up and yes I am so happy to be doing what God has called me to do. I am so glad that you agree it is an on time word. May we use our times wisely. Many blessings, Sandi Holman
This is such a treasured Word to my heart Sandi at this time. It surely is a Now Word very important to hear. Thank you for your endurance and all you share with us.
Pulling this part out here:
“I AM enabling My Chosen Remnant to finish what has been begun in their purpose as they are being fit together to work hand in head and share heart to heart with the last days Army.”
Thank you Lord for your divine purpose for us all and instructions how to get to the place we need be in this last hour!
Past is surely to be behind us finally, with the last of that layer of onion being removed.
The Deepest of healing now and forgiving ourselves and others fully and freely.
We love you Lord and ask in Jesus Name this day, pleading the Blood of Jesus.
Dear Joyce…we can surely relate to the last layer of the onion(those onions bring tears to my eyes) LOL!! I hope to tell Angus I think I am done upcapping the wells from the pain of the past. I appreciate your open and brokenness that has come through the endurance of your faith. Love you sweet sister. Sandi xoxo
