Last Monday I hurried home. No, not to clean my kitchen, and no, not to get dinner ready. I couldn’t wait to check my mailbox to see if my one precious copy of P31 Woman magazine had arrived for February.
My magazine article is out this month, See Jane Run. For those of you who get it, just a hint, don’t let my grandma know you threw it away. She doesn’t have a copy. You could probably make your mortgage payment selling her a copy or two.
Even though the Lord had given me promises of publishing my work, and even after editors had confirmed the Lord’s promises by publication, I still struggle with unbelief. Seeing the tangible promise of God to me, in the form of a magazine, brought unexplainable joy to my heart. Once again confirming that He has begun a good work in me (in you too!) and He is going to complete it.
Have you ever felt God tell you something? Has He whispered a precious promise in your ear and confirmed it to your heart – through His word?
Sisters, if you have been given a promise from God, hold on to it with every bit of strength you have.
If you begin to lose sight of what He has told you, it is not because He is unfaithful and it is not because He has forgotten you. Maybe, just maybe, you are trying to see His promise to you fulfilled in your time, with human eyes. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen.
Get in His word and stay in His word until He speaks. Then, pray His promise back to the very one who has promised you eternity. We have such an awesome, loving, forgiving God as our father. He loves you so very much. He wants to pour out His promises in your life. Sweet sisters, lets begin taking God at His word.
“Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.” Phil. 1:6
