God Keeps His Promises

For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
Habakkuk 2:3

For many of us, matter of fact, for all of us, at some point or other, God has made a promise concerning our lives. Maybe you’ve seen that promise fulfilled. Maybe it is being fulfilled in this chapter of your life. Maybe you are still waiting for it to be fulfilled. I am! This verse speaks to our faith. Why do I say that? Because you have to have faith to believe that a promise is going to be fulfilled no matter how long it takes. How many of us, when we were little, believed wholeheartedly when our parents promised us something? Sometimes our parents failed in keeping their promises yet we believed it when they said it and waited anxiously for it to come to pass. GOD DOES NOT BREAK HIS PROMISES. It may seem like it’s not going to happen. It may seem impossible. You may even think God has forgotten His promises to you. Quite possibly you may have forgotten His promises to you yourself! Be sure of one thing, God does not forget His promises! Whatever He promised you, if it hasn’t been fulfilled yet it is because it is for an appointed time but it will happen. Wait for it! Expect it! Because it will surely come, it will not tarry! Praise the Lord for His promises! We get discouraged when we are waiting on the Lord for something He promised and we don’t get it right away or we don’t get it when we want but God reminds us through this verse that it will surely come! He is not a man that He should lie, nor the son of man to change His mind. He knows the appointed time for the fulfillment of His promise to you. And when you finally see it come to pass, you will be in a position to appreciate it and glorify God for it. He tells us to wait for it because He keeps His word. No matter how long it takes, we should hold on to the promises of God for our lives. Remember that nothing is impossible for our Lord. He will come through. You will see it! You will rejoice in it! He is always on time. Praise God!! When you least expect it, God will remind you that He promised you something and will fulfill it at that time.
