“One
day, while my son Zac and I were out in the country, climbing around in some
cliffs, I heard a voice from above me yell, "Hey Dad! Catch me!" I
turned around to see Zac joyfully jumping off a rock straight at me. He had
jumped and then yelled "Hey Dad!" I became an instant circus act,
catching him. We both fell to the ground. For a moment after I caught him I
could hardly talk.
When
I found my voice again I gasped in exasperation: "Zac! Can you give me one
good reason why you did that?"
He
responded with remarkable calmness: "Sure...because you're my Dad."
His whole assurance was based in the fact that his father was trustworthy. ” {Tim Hansel: Holy Sweat, 1987}
Whatever
God has told please hold to it. Whatever He has promised you and your family
please cling to it as if all depends on it. There will be challenges I agree,
it might seems delayed and all hope drained but please don’t let go! Don’t give
up on His word for you.
The
horde of darkness is unleashing its fierce anger against God’s beloved and
it’s not a coincidence you reading this now. It is actually to give you hope
and reassurance that you can trust in His infallible word! You might even fail
to notice that your trust exudes great confidence and it’s a source of strength
and inspiration to many. You can’t give up now!
James
Brown of Evangeline Baptist Church, Wildsville, LA shared this remarkable story
some years ago when he was learning to fly: “My
instructor told me to put the plane into a steep and extended dive. I was
totally unprepared for what was about to happen. After a brief time the engine
stalled, and the plane began to plunge out-of-control. It soon became evident
that the instructor was not going to help me at all. After a few seconds, which
seemed like eternity, my mind began to function again. I quickly corrected the
situation.
Immediately
I turned to the instructor and began to vent my fearful frustrations on him. He
very calmly said to me, "There is no
position you can get this airplane into that I cannot get you out of. If you
want to learn to fly, go up there and do it again." At that moment God
seemed to be saying to me, "Remember this. As you serve me, there is no
situation you can get yourself into that I cannot get you out of. If you trust
me, you will be all right."That lesson has been proven true in my ministry
many times over the years.“
“Then
Nebuchadnezzar said, blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, Who
has sent His angel and delivered His servants who believed in, trusted in, and
relied on Him! And they set aside the king’s command and yielded their
bodies rather than serve or worship any god except their own God.” Dan 3:28
I
know two immutable things about God's word:
* He can never fail.
* He is never late.
While
you are waiting you can reach out, pray, praise him more and stay very close to
His word!
You will come through!
