Sirach 2:10 – Think back to the ancient generations and consider this: has the Lord ever disappointed anyone who put his hope in him? Has the Lord ever abandoned anyone who held him in constant reverence? Has the Lord ever ignored anyone who prayed to him?
Fear, apprehension, a general sense of wariness; these are generously supplied in the mystery of the unknown. When pressing forward to a new task or pursing a new thing, there is a tendency for some to wonder. Can it be done? Can this thing be accomplished by me? The answer is Yes! Absolutely yes, albeit with some instruction…
In the Bible David says, “I’ve never seen the righteous forsaken…” Solomon speaks something similar, “Not one word has failed of all his good promise, which he spoke by Moses his servant.” Isaiah reads, heaven and earth will pass away but my word will never return void. It Will Accomplish everything it is sent to… It Will Accomplish!
You can accomplish!
Do you dare , have it in you, to pursue?
The question is good and ultimately healthy because appearances can really be deceiving.
Circumstances may conspire. The unknown may lend itself to past hearsay. Mysteries, for some, may tend to call into question everything you know when the promise lingers in the distance. Yet with careful thought, there is insurance. More available than Geico – Remember! What does history say? What does your history (with the word) reveal? Not simply the emotional revisions. What does the story read from beginning to end? If ever there was opportunity for doubt. If ever there was a thought to question. In the absence of knowing the when or where and how, history records the truth of faith. It has – it is rewarded, and more importantly. What he said/ says, happens!
Through obstinacy and arrogance, with willful pride and prejudice as bones; God never fails to deliver his promises. This means if you believe it possible, and he says it’s so. It’s Done!
Look at the record.
Not one generation of man can say, I Listened, I pursued and it didn’t work. I didn’t get a payoff. If He called you, whether by dream or vocal instruction, it’s decided you are ready. You Can Do It.
You are the right man, woman – in between genders… You’re the one for the job.
Do You have the will to pursue it?
