TOO FAITHFUL TO FAIL

Well, I am not going to excite your emotion today young man. I am only interested in you getting the core message of hope in hopelessness, peace in the storm, joy in sad moments and strength when you are weary and cannot go on again. Really, majority of what happen to you in storming and turbulent times will make you doubt if there is any God who cares. You may even see evil people "prospering" and doing "well" while you who maintain the stand of integrity face a lot of trying times. You don't want to go in wrong direction to get ahead in life yet you have so much pressure from all angle limiting your advancement. Some people gangs up against you and have hindered your promotion for years? You have been on the same level in your business for long with all the effort you are putting in? You have some debts that has been accrued over the years? What exact area of your life is engulfed in the storm and you could only ask, is this how I will sink? Do you want me to perish oh lord? All these together made you doubt the faithfulness of God. You don't even want to hear any counsel on that for now. Any encouraging words is like a bitter substance in the mouth to your ears now. You are in the middle of the deep blue sea and no one can convince you that God is faithful again? Well, young man, the design of God can never fail. He is ever committed to bringing his words to pass in your life. If all things fails, he will NEVER fail cos he is not a man. All the reasons around you now is purely emotionalized and rationalized with human brain. Your conclusions are not his conclusions. Your full stops are not his. In fact, it may never be a comma in his construction. Yes, you are a work in progress and its messy at the working site right now. The beauty is not out yet. Everything look scattered but mind it, you will soon see the beauty. He is bringing beauty for your ashes. He is bringing honours in folds for your shame. Your reproach is a part of the design at the site. Wait for him to finish this stage with you. You will see he is too faithful to fail. He is never going to fail you. The three Hebrews who were Daniel's friends in the scriptures held on to God knowing he can never fail. But you must wonder why God allowed them to be tied and bundled into the furnace. You must wonder why he  allowed the furnace heat to be raised seven times without his intervention. The heat was so much that it killed those that threw them there. That was when God threw his weight in so you thought?No, He was there all along. He was working in that messy situation. He was waiting to beautify them and he did. What a glory and honor for their God and of course for them. Till now they became a reference point of those who remained steadfast in trying time. You see, God is faithful but he works in HIS OWN TIME and NOT YOURS. Once you want him bounded to the loops of your own time and schedules, you will always see him as  unfaithful to his words. God is ever faithful. Just hold on a little more. Less I forget young man, hope you are really praying and holding on? Are you sure you are not grumbling and complaining? Make sure you are praying and communing with God. He will strengthen this phase of your making process. Make it your slogan and establish it on your heart that God is too faithful to fail.
