0:43 Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta. I want to start off by shouting a scripture with you, and I want to take this forward. And it is found in Isaiah sixty two with six ends seven and I'm reading from the Good News translation, and this is what it says, part B of verse six Isaiah sixty two. This is what it says. They must never be silent day or night. They must remind the Lord of his promises and never let him forget them. Isn't that something so awesome? Remind the Lord of his promises?

1:26 And verse seven says give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth. I want you to understand something here, guys. Yes, you're waiting on God to show up in your life. You are waiting on the Lord to intervene, maybe for a breakthrough, a miracle, maybe in some area of your life you need an answer. Maybe you're just feeling like, oh my gosh, this is just going on and on. It could be something with regard to the calling upon your life. It could be your ministry, or maybe when will your business takeoff?

2:01 Or maybe when will you see a financial stability, Or it could be a loud one that needs to get saved, Or it could be anything that you've been praying about, maybe an answer in your area of a relationship, or maybe you've been praying for a career more or just your dreams or the purpose that God has called you to step into. And whatever it is, you know, it's one thing to just be still. Yes, I understand there's a place where you just be still and wait for the Law to do and it's how ultimately the Lord who does it.

2:30 But here's the principle that the scriptures sharing with us that you know remind the Lord of his promises and be not silent till he makes them come to pass. And you know, in other words, you know, for you to go through that season. Right, it's not that God has forgotten his promises, right, it's it's it's stupidity to everything. Because God has promised in his word it you know, heaven and that will fade away, but his word will remain forever. Every promise he has given you as yes and amen in Christ Jesus, and he has a way of making them all come to pass, and there is no doubt about it.

3:03 But when you talk about reminding God of his promises, it's it's like, you know, I'm reminded of a little kid telling that his or her dad. You know, you told me you'll get me this. You told me you'll get me this. You teld me you'll get me this. What does that show? That shows that the kid has faith in the kid's dad saying, you know what you told me this, so I want this, you know you know what I mean? Kind of her relationship that or the bond that is formed between the child and the dad. And that's the kind of a picture you see here where it says, you know, reminding God night and day saying God, you know what you promised me.

3:40 You know that no good thing will lie with the old them that walk up rightly. So I'm praying that you would give me this gift that I've been praying about. You know it's a good thing. Or you. You said in your word that you'll meet my needs. You said in your word that you know it's not good for me to be alone. You said in your word you know you will establish my steps. You said in your word that you'll take me from glory to glory. You know in every detail whatever you've been praying about, in any area that you've been asking the Lord to show up and show out in your life.

4:13 Today, I'm asking you to don't just be silent and you know just you know, complain or just live through life. You know, one of the best things you can do for you to pass that time waiting period is to remind God and say, God, you know you promise me this. This is what I'm standing on and it shows God that you still trust him. It shows God that you have the faith. And also remember when you're reminding God, what are you doing, You're going back to the word right because you're saying you know, God, this is what your word says.

4:42 And I'm standing on your word and the word. The Bible says that the word of God is so powerful that it will not go in vain. It will accomplish the task for which it was sent. So you are going back to the word and reminding God based on this word. See, guys, I wanted to understand. That's the power of the world that you and I have. Every time you decree, every time you declare, every time you open my mouth and say, you know what, God, this is what your word says. This is the promise you deposited in my heart.

5:08 This is the you know, this kind of firm feeling in my spirit that I know, and I know without a shadow of a doubt, this is what you have spoken over me. What are you doing. You're going back to that word. Whether it's a Logos word that you received, or maybe it is a Rema word that you received, but you're reminding God of his word, reminding him of his promises. You're standing on it day in and day out. And I want you to understand that God is going to look up and say, you know what, Yes, isn't that what I promised you?

5:36 I'm going to give it to you at the right a point in time. But at the same time you will be able to pass through that waiting period without hope and expectation. Pass through the waiting period, you know, one of the things for reminding God of his promises. You need to know the promises of God. Right, that's the thing. You know, when you take time to feed on the word and receive that promise and receive you know, the word, whether it's a logos or a rama word, spending time at the feet of the Lord, then you will be able to come to that place where you can remind him of that promise.

6:11 You get what I'm saying. So today my challenge is get to that place. First of all, you know, spend time with the Lord to get that word, whether it's a rama word, spoken word from God or if it's a logos word that a Lord just points out from the Bible or whatever it is that jumps into your spirit. So you know, get into that place where you receive that word from the Lord, and then what you do remind him of it day in and day out. Just say God, you know what, this is what your word says, this is what I'm standing on I'm not looking at my circumstance.

6:40 I'm not looking at how the reality looks like. I'm not looking at what people are saying. I am standing on your word, and I believe in, decree and declare. As you look up to the Lord, as you put your trust, hope, and reliance upon the word of the Living God, his word will never go in whin. He will accomplish everything he has promised. And just like He did for Abraham and set off, the Bible says beautifully in the Book of Fight the Genesis that you know at the right a point in time God came and did everything exactly as he promised, and He will do exactly how he promised in your life, and you will be like amazed at what He is doing.
