He's Going to Do It!

So, the year is coming to a close. Maybe you had some prayer requests up before the Lord that haven't been answered yet. You might be feeling a bit discouraged that you haven't attained that promise that you know the Lord has for you.

I know exactly how you're feeling. Right now I'm trying to ignore my left hand that clearly doesn't have a ring on it yet! But that's neither here nor there. We cannot allow ourselves to grow despondent. We cannot cave in to doubt and disbelief. We cannot allow ourselves to begin to question God or even ourselves.

We just have to trust. We just have to believe. We just have to stand and having done all to stand: stand.

He's going to do it!

The Lord is a keeper of His word. Just like He showed Joseph his future greatness, the Lord kept His word. Joseph may have had to suffer through slavery and imprisonment on the way, but the Lord kept His promise.

Just like the Lord kept His word to Abraham. Abraham may have had to wait years for God's promised heir for him to show up, but the boy did show up!

And even David had to wait for the fulfillment of his destiny. He was anointed king years before he took the throne. And while he waited, David was on the run just to stay alive!

With even the biggest promise, the dispatch of a Redeemer that would save mankind and bring them back to right standing with God, there were generations that passed before the word came to fruition. But, the Lord kept His promise.

How much more will God keep His promise to you? Don't lose heart! Don't give in! Keep believing God's word. Keep standing on His promises. You won't be left hanging. You won't be disappointed. Our God is faithful and just.

He's going to do it!

Verse of the Day: God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? Numbers 23:19
