I Will Never Lose Faith In God
There is absolutely nothing we go through that is too hard for God to take us through. Our faith in Him is crucial to seeing God act in our practical experience. However, without faith, it is impossible to please Him. Before you even approach Him, you must believe He exists and that He loves you enough to respond to those who wholeheartedly seek Him. (Hebrews 11:6, AMP). Regardless of how difficult life gets, our past experiences highlight how faithful our God is. Beloved, it's too late to stop trusting God now.
Chaos, challenging circumstances, and an uncertain future are enough to make anybody fainthearted. What will you wake up to tomorrow? Will you even have a job? However, when you have a resounding history with the Lord, you need not worry about how hard your life gets. Past experiences, battles won that were supposed to end in defeat, and even the seemingly impossible becoming possible, serve as a testament that nothing is too unthinkable for God.
So, Beloved, I really do not care how hard my life gets, I will never stop trusting in the Lord. When I moved to Florida in 2004, I lost everything and saw Him replenish with a 100-fold return. Then in 2006, I became the Sole Proprietor of my Family Day Care Home. In September 2012, because of abuse of power, I even lost my job as a Preferred Substitute Teacher. It resulted in unemployment for four years and no income for almost three years. Still, I have never seen the righteous forsaken nor their seed begging bread. This horrendous season catapulted me into becoming a multi-award-winning author. Dear One, it’s too late to stop a miracle from happening again.
Hardships may visit you for a season. Even death has probably touched you and your family. However, regardless of what we go through, God will see us through it. He has experienced what it is like to lose a Son because He so loved the world that He gave His only Son to die for our sins. (John 3:16). Jesus faced fierce opposition from the Pharisees. (Luke 6:1-11). The devil tempted Him for forty days and nights. (Matthew 4:1-11). In the Garden of Gethsemane, He wrestled over His weakness and His Father’s will. Nonetheless, Christ submitted to the will of His Father. (Matthew 26:36-47).
Dear One, let our stories encourage you to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. No weapon formed against you shall prosper because He knows how the story ends. His record is flawless, dependable, and untainted. He has already intervened and turned it around for your greater good. It is too late to stop trusting Him now. (Exodus 14:13-14, Isaiah 54:17; Genesis 50:20).
I pray the song, Too Late to Lose by CeCe Winans stirs your heart to believe in the impossible, no matter how hard life gets.
