"Daily dwell on God's promise to you. Hide them in your heart and always remember, 'Not one word has failed of all His good promise.' " 1 Kings 8:56


Today's scripture outline important instructions for the believer. We are asked to:


1. Daily Dwell

2. Hide the word

3. Remember God's Promise


When we daily dwell on God's promise to us we choose to meditate solely on his words. We are refuting our own negative thoughts for God's promises. As our thoughts begin to align with his word, we are no longer considering any other option besides what God has promised. We become "locked in" on his words and laser focus on what lies ahead.


However, the scripture tells us to do something very important. We must Hide the word in our heart. Why? If we don't secure the word of God, there are so many things that occur in our life to up root what was planted. Faith shifting circumstances often invade and bombard our lives to the point of no return if you are not fully anchored. It's only the word of God that can keep our faith intact. We have to ensure that the word is deeply rooted in our hearts so that we may not stray away or forfeit our promise.

Lastly, we are told to remember the promise. When you consider the Faithfulness of God over the course of your life, you can always pinpoint moments when he came through and fulfill your prayer or his promise. He is not in the business falling short or not fulfilling his word. The Bible tells us that he honors his word above his name. God's word to you means everything to HIM. That is powerful and encouraging! Whatever he promised, don't let it go. Continue to nurture it in your heart and wait for it to come to pass.






“Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; Wait for the LORD!”

Psalm 27:14


Wait on the Lord, no matter how tempting it may be to step out and test your plan B. We all have back up plans "just in case" we believe that God is taking a bit longer than we like. It's no secret that we have grown to be impatient over the years. With everything else at our finger tips, its difficult to wait for something that you want "yesterday".


If God wants you to wait then it's in your best interest. He sees far down the line and he knows exactly what you need when you need it. Stepping out on what you desire will only delay what he has already prepared for you to recieve.


Many people often believe that their time is "running out" and they want to be able to experience the joy of what they have been earnestly praying for. Waiting is not easy and when you wait for a prolonged period of time it causes you to grow weary. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months and months into years. The waiting becomes unbearable and our heart becomes faint.


However, in your waiting season God is doing something amazing. He is working in you and preparing you to receive what he promised. He is preparing you to blossom into what you need to be to receive what you prayed for. You may be waiting on a spouse; hoping to become a parent; ready to be an entrepreneur or step out into ministry. No matter what it is, God knows when is the right time and will restore unto you the years that you patiently waited. He is the giver of time, if he kept you by his grace this long, surely he will continue to uphold you until the appointed time and beyond!


When you are feeling weak, tell him! He will step in and give you the grace and strength to remain. Stay faithful and he will bless you beyond what you could ever imagine for yourself.
