God keeps His promises, always! No matter what is happening (or not happening) in your life, God’s promises are reliable.
If sickness is stealing your energy, disappointment is draining your hope, infertility is knocking at the door of your womb and saying, you will not carry a baby in your womb, or creditors are calling, you may find it difficult to believe the promise that was once so alive in your heart. You may even be tempted to give in to the pressure and let go of the promise of God.
Here is some great news: neither God nor His promise are weakened by
Trials, and if you have loosened your grip on what God has promised you,
You can still go forward with Him. If God has promised you a child then it must come to pass, except you give up on His word. The bible says, even when we are unfaithful God remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself.
The bible says this about God’s faithfulness:
God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful. 1 Corinthians 1:19
The LORD is faithful to all his promises and loving toward all he has made. Psalm 145:13.
To the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless. Psalm 18:25.
My eyes will be on the faithful in the land; that they may dwell with me; he whose walk is blameless will minister to me. Psalm 101:6
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.
He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he. Deuteronomy 32:4.
Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commands. Deuteronomy 7:9
Tenacious Trust Produces the Promise
Often, seeing the promise through to its fulfilment requires relentless faith. So, what do you do when darkness is closing in and your faith is failing?
Simply this, remember that without God we are hopeless. Yet, if Jesus is your Lord, He is your Light. Isaiah 50:10 says, “Let him who walks in the dark, who has no light, trust in the name of the LORD and rely on his God”.
To walk in the light you have to keep looking to God.
Only He can fulfill the promise he made to you. If you try to “help” him, you will get something, but it will be a mere shadow of what God has in store for you.
Many times we are all tempted to help God, but we must remember that God does not need our help and any attempt to help him may get in his way or even delay our promise.
God promised Abraham and Sarah a son, but after years of waiting they grew impatient. They “helped” God to produce the promise. The result was Ishmael born of the union of Abraham and Hagar, Sarah’s maidservant. Read Genesis 16. Ishmael was born outside of God’s promise. His birth complicated his parents’ lives. He became a source of strife contention while still in the womb.
