This is an excerpt from “Our
Faithful and Awesome God”. Thanks to Tina, my Math Major friend, for sharing
this soul-uplifting video.
Before reading this, kindly check
“laminin” and pray continue reading the discourse below. See the connection. I
jotted all this down.
“…and it is proof that God
doesn’t always change the circumstances, He did not change them for Jesus on
that hillside outside Jerusalem, but the cross is also a proof that God always
has a purpose in the circumstances and that His purpose and His plan will
prevail and will triumph through any circumstances in this world.”
“Do you not know?”
“Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God, the creator of the Earth,
He will not grow tired or weary and His understanding no one can fathom. He’s
huge. He’s big. He gives strength to the weary and He increases the power of
the weak. For even, the youth will grow tired and weary, the young men will
stumble and fall, but those who hope in the Lord, another translation, those
who wait upon the Lord.
The Hebrew word simply means this, when it says hope and
wait, it means that those who stand right in the midst of crisis, right in the
midst of pain, right in the midst of chaos, right in the valley of the shadow
of death and they’re dealing with the hardest stuff in life. But standing in
the middle of it saying, you know what
“I don’t see what God’s doing. I
don’t understand what the plan is. But I’ll tell you one thing, I am not gonna
give up on God, and I wanna stand right here in the middle of this moment, and
I’m gonna trust that God is sitting on a throne that He has a purpose for my
life and a plan for my life. And I believe, I wanna see the goodness of God in
the land of the living and I’m not gonna stop believing that no matter what.”
That’s what the word means, to
wait and the hope of Lord. And here’s the promise of the Lord
“I will renew your strength and
when you can’t take one more breath, I’ll give you enough to keep going on, and
enough to keep going on, and enough to keep going on and to keep going and to
keep going.”
And keep hoping and you cause strength to rise
when you hope. When you keep going you’ll feel like you have been swept up on
the wings of eagles and you will run and will not get weary. You will walk
through it all and not faint.
He said, “I will hold you. Even
when you let go of me, I’m not gonna let go of you.”
And that is the promise of our
everlasting God.
