His Promise

"I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you." - Genesis 28:15
Don't you love how people promise you things and never deliver on their promises? 
Yeah I didn't think so. 
My grandfather always said your word and your name is all you have and once you go back on your word your reputation is destroyed. 
Didn't Dru Hill sing, "I never make a promise that I can't keep, that ain't me"? That's what God says in His Word, I never make a promise that  I can't keep, that ain't me. Over and over, time and again God has made promises that He never renegs on. His Word is His bond. When you hear His name you know it is trustworthy. Ask anyone that He has made a promise to and they'll tell you, "He's good people."
Hey, I'm one of them. God promised to never leave me nor forsake me and He's still with me going strong after almost 18 years. Even some of the most trustworthy people you know will go back on their word but God's Word has survived wars, burnings, famine, murder, governments and still stands firm even as people try (but don't succeed) to discredit it. 
No matter what, if God gives you His Word its DONE. No ifs, ands, or buts about it.
I'll leave you with the lyrics of this song by Avalon cuz You can take Him at His Word.
I can take You at Your word
And my heart can rest assured
Lord, I love You
Oh, I trust You
As I live I've learned
I can take You at Your word

Podcast Episode 3: Living in THE Truth

I started a podcast! We are 3 (three) episodes in. I talked about a Jonah moment over on Facebook and this was it. God had placed on my heart to start this podcast a year ago and I sat in the fish a whole year. But, I finally decided to be obedient and the fish spit me out and I'm so glad that I did. This has been a good ride so far. God is good. Episode 3 is up now. In this episode we talk about truth. In this crazy world we are in today the truth is in the eye of the beholder. We are living in our truth. But God is the same yesterday, today and forever and in God's economy there is one truth, THE truth. Jesus is the way, TRUTH, and the life.  Thanks for listening. The podcast is on all of these platforms. So please listen and rate.

Praise Break: Hymn of Breakthough

 I have been in a time of Worship and Praise since early this morning and for the last 3 hours I've been listening to Israel Houghton's Feels Like Home. It has been blessing me. But the very last song was the Hymn of Breakthough. There has been such a shift in my mindset, in my expectancy of God in the last almost 20 days. I'm expecting a breakthough or even breakthrough. The lyrics say, I hear the sound of breakthough, my breakthrough is here. Everything that I need You supply. Every promise of Heaven is mine. But the words that spoke to my spirit, I am healed, I am free God has spoken I agree My breakthrough is here God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. Let the words follow over you, let in seep to you Soul so that you know, God has a breakthrough for. No matter what you are going through, no matter the sitution. God said, God said your breakthrough is here. Stand i...
