2 Kings 8 - 18 & 19 (Amplified) - He walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for Athaliah, the daughter of Ahab, became his wife He did evil in the sight of the LORD. Yet for the sake of His servant David, the LORD was not willing to destroy Judah; since He has promised to give him a lamp (enthroned descendant) through his sons always.
The amazing thing about the verses above go beyond the fact that, in spite of their wickedness, God did not destroy them... but the WHY behind that lack of destruction.
God was not willing to destroy Judah because He had promised something to David and even though David had long since died, God would not break that promise.
He had promised. So He stayed His hand and did not punish them.
This verse is a no-holds-barred, no bones about it testament that God always, always keeps His promises. Always. Period.
God has made you some promises, too. And He intends to keep them, no matter what. Period.
For some of us it is nearly fulfillment time. Could be later on today. Could be tomorrow morning... or next week... or in 10 days time.
Maybe it's just around the corner ~ or the corner after that ~ or even another corner after that one.
No matter what, it's getting closer to the time of fulfillment for the promise God made to you.
Let's count the cost of doubt & unbelief as it pertains to the promises of God. What does it cost us to live in unbelief? You will be downcast, discontented, discouraged, afraid, angry, bitter, & on edge. And when the promise comes to pass (which it certainly will!), you will enjoy it far less than the Lord desires you to, all because your joy got taken in the midst of your doubt & unbelief.
Unbelief costs us quite a lot. It is far more expensive than choosing to believe.
Give yourself a stern talking-to, one that follows suit from the coach in the US Olympic hockey team move "Miracle". When doubt comes a knocking, tell it "Not Today." Give it no quarter & no access - send it packing & bolt the door shut tight.
Believe today.
Your time is almost here!
