Pin It Now!
Yet he (Abraham) did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. Romans 4:20-21
I wish to share a small testimony over the coffee table today.
A while ago when I was looking for a job, God gave me a promise; I have shared it with you on Coffee with Jesus. It was the verse in Isaiah 55:13: "Instead of the thornbush will grow the pine tree, and instead of briers the myrtle will grow. This will be for the LORD's renown, for an everlasting sign, which will not be destroyed.". Just as He promised I was blessed with a fine job.
Well, now nearly a year and a half later I was told yesterday my position is being eliminated. On my way back home I was recalling the promise God gave me and was wondering 'what about that'. To my surprise I am presented with today's verse - written on a piece of paper, supposedly a Promise verse picked by my sister for me at the New Year service back home.She had sent it through my Mom who is visiting us this summer.
It is not a coincidence I get it in my hand today, when I needed it the most. It says as you read above, Abraham did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God.
Amen! This is exactly what I intend to do. I am sure my God - our God - has the power to do what he had promised! I have no doubt in my mind about that. Praise be to His holy name!
