Hallelujah! 2022 is gone! A new day, a new year with new opportunities is here. Old things are passed away and new beginnings are knocking at your door. But what is more thrilling and important are the whispers the dreams, the visions, the plans, the prophecy that God has given you and promised you. Just like He promised Joseph through his dreams about a future time, a place and a position that one day he would come into for God’s purpose. Joseph was inspired but somewhat confused because he wasn’t sure what God was trying to tell him through those continuous dreams and when he told his family, especially his brothers’ and father he was ridicule for it.
Fast forward through years of lies, deception, hardships, challenges and pain. God said enough is enough!! This is your time, Joseph. Your day, your new season has come. When the Pharoah was troubled by disturbing dreams that no one could interpret God created an opportunity for Joseph by paving the way for him to interpret the Pharoah’s dreams with an additional plan to solve the problem that the dreams were warning the Pharoah about that would produce a famine with the seven years of surplus and the seven years of lack working against each other. Joseph was immediately appointed Prime Minister, second in line to the Pharoah of Egypt. This was a stunning display of how amazing God will bring His promise to pass in Joseph’s life and He will do the same for you!
Let us please don’t forget Sarah when she was told that she would give birth to a son and because she was far pass her natural state of being physically able to have a child not only did she not believe, she laughed. Sure enough, in the fullness of time, just as God promised Sarah gave birth to a son. Yes, she was indeed passed the natural physical age to have a child. But God’s promises always comes true. Beloved, I believe that God has a sense of humor, because when the child was born, they named the child Isaac which means laughter.
Now, we have one of the “giants of faith, Noah” Who believed God from the beginning and like God, he had a love and a passion for souls, so much that he preached for 120 years trying to warn the people about the coming flood without converting anyone. Therefore, when God saw that the world was getting exceedingly wicked and defile. God called on Noah, a righteous man who walked with God to do His will and accomplish His purpose. God told Noah His intentions to destroy the world by flood. Then God instructed Noah to build an ark so that he, the select animals and his family could survive. Noah believed God and “finished all that God had commanded him to do. We all know the “rest of the story”. Only Noah and his family and the select animals were saved.
Like my older brother Leon use to say: I say that to say this; if God has spoken to your heart about a particular thing regardless of the lapse in time, situation or circumstance or whatever it maybe, no matter how difficult it may seem in order for it to come to fruition. Just remember the above Bible stories and be comforted and encouraged because if God said it that should “settle it”. Beloved, God knows the end at the beginning (Isaiah 46:10).
He is our creator and He knows what will happen, when it will happen, and why it will happen. So don’t let “time, age, lack of money or earthly support stop you from standing strong and believing God and taking Him at His word. For if God said it, “He is not a man that can lie”. He is God and He will surely bring it to pass. So whatever God has promised you or placed in your heart for you to do, rest assured He will surely bring it to pass.
Be encouraged and Know that God loves you!!
God Bless you all and Happy New Year!!

God Keeps His Promises
By Deborah Ann Belka
God keeps His promises,
His Word never fails
His promises He keeps
right down to the details.
Promises of new life,
that His Son brings
promises of hope
to work out all things.
Promises of comfort,
when trails we face
promises of new mercy
and sufficient grace.
Promises of blessings,
of every spiritual kind
promises of His peace
to guard heart and mind.
Promises to finish,
all that He has begun
promises of salvation
through the gift of His Son.
God keeps His promises,
they are solid as a Rock
He promises us Jesus . . .
will return for His flock!
