God promises predates our problems

I'd like to share my testimony with you as the year draws to an end. I hope it encourages you. 
4 years ago, I blogged about having some unanswered prayers and how I believed that if we continue to pray, persevere and wait, someday we will look back and realize that the answers to our prayers came at the very right time because God always shows up on time (read it here "Unanswered prayers"). Today, I testify to the fact that God has answered those prayer requests of mine, in fact, He did exceedingly abundantly above all that I asked. 



As you know, I like to keep it real so I'm not going to make it sound like it was a walk in the park, it was far from that, in fact, there were days that I felt God had too much confidence in me for Him to trust me with such journey 😄 I cried, prayed, hoped, became restless and almost gave up hope but God kept me through it. 
From my experience, I can confidently tell you that if your promise is from God, He will surely fulfill it, so keep holding on to Him, after all, the Bible says that He always fulfills His promises of unfailing love to those who love Him and keep His commands (Daniel 9: 4).

Trust and wait on God

Worrying is a common temptation in life and hard as I try, I still find myself struggling with this characteristic which is meant to be found in faithless people. The big question is why do we worry so much when God is there listening?
Today, God wants me to remind you that all you have to do is trust, even if it seems like things won't work out, reach for it anyway and God, the way he always does, will do the rest.

I once read that "when you know Whose you are, you'll begin to understand who you are, what you're supposed to do, and where you're supposed to be. Jeremiah 29: 10 - 11 says: This is what the Lord says: “When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my good promise to bring you back to this place. 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. It is also written in Matthew 21: 22 that "And all things, whatsoever ye ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive"
