0:41 Speaker 1: Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta.

0:46 Speaker 2: Hell everyone, Welcome to the session of the Fuel for the Soul with On gift of Podcast Luke Chapter. What was for this is I've written all of this to you so that you can be certain of the truth of everything you were thought.

0:58 Speaker 1: See.

0:59 Speaker 2: I want you to understand and that you need to be in that place where you are certain of the truth. It's not something like you just think, oh, I think this is the truth, like nobody says I think the sun will rise in the east, or I think the sun will set in the west tomorrow, like nobody says that right because you know for a fact that yes, it's the truth. The sun will rise in the east or the sun will set in the west. You know for a fact it's not something you imagine. It's not something you just hope or you just think.

1:32 Speaker 2: No, it's something you are certain about. Today. I want you to understand if there are areas in your life where the Word of God is no longer certain about, in your life, where you are no longer in that place of certainty saying yes, I know my God will show up in my life. I know my God is faithful. I know that God is a God who's a good God, a faithful God, a promise keeper, a miracle worker, and I know that God has good plans will prevail over my life. Today. I want to share this world to encourage and get you to that place where you are certain on the word of God.

2:09 Speaker 2: There can be any number of things that go against you. There can be so many things that are shaking you. But I want to pray that you will come to that place of certainty saying yes, my God he is faithful today. I want you to get to that place where you have the certainty that you can have in God and his Word. See, now I want you to understand. If you're saying, John, that sounds nice, that sounds great. You're saying that, yes, God's promises are all yes and amen. You're saying that God is faithful to his word.

2:42 Speaker 2: But look at my life. Things are just not going fine. Things are just not going fine. Because I want you to understand. When you look at verse six he talks about Zachariah and Elizabeth. The Word says that they were righteous in God's says, careful to obey all the law, commandments and regulations. And look at verse seven and says they had no children because Elizabeth was unable to conceive and they were very old. See think about this. The Bible says that they were righteous, not just in the side of people, but in the sight of God, because you can act wholly inside of people, but you could be a different person behind the scenes.

3:27 Speaker 2: But God is saying that even in the sight of God, they were righteous. They were careful to obey all of the law's commandments, and yet they had a big problem. They didn't get any children. See, sometimes what happens is you can say that John, I don't understand this. I'm doing the right thing. I'm going the extra man. I'm having the spirit of excellence, I'm praying, I'm meditating on the word, I'm looking up to the Lord. But still I'm having this big problem. I'm having this big area where I don't have a miracle, I don't have a solution, I don't have an answer.

4:14 Speaker 2: Are you feeling like that? See, I want you to understand sometimes, you know, even in my life, I've seen this where even if there are things going fine, like for example, you have seen like i work in a full time corporate job and I'm running the ministry, the daily podcast, YouTube, social media, and i travel a minister in different places. All of these things are happening. But can I threll is something in the midst of all of that, there are areas that I'm still praying that the Lord will show up in my life.

4:44 Speaker 2: You know, as a typical Christian single for example, I've been praying that the Lord will bring the right person into my life. It's been a long time to you, praying, waiting on the lot, but it feels like it's not happening. But can I tell you something, Just because it has not happened yet, it does not mean it's not going to happen. See today you can say, oh, John, this particular problem is there. See. Sometimes even if there are ninety nine things working out fine, we can be focused on that one thing that's not working out and feel like, oh my gosh, am I missing the mark?

5:16 Speaker 2: Am I going wrong somewhere? Am I missing out on something? Can I think you something? These two were righteous, they honored the lot, they were careful to obey the commandments of the lot, and yet they had a problem. See I wanted and I said, you having a problem does not mean you are making a mistake. It does not mean that you have messed up. It does not mean that you've gone off track. Sometimes you can do the right thing and still have an area where you're not seeing God show up. You may face people telling you, oh, if this is not working out, maybe you're missing out on something.

5:58 Speaker 2: If this answer is not coming, that means you have not surrendered to God. You know, these are statements I've heard a lot of Christians say, Oh, you know, if this particular area is it's still bland in your life, that means you are not trusting God, You are not surrendered to God. Maybe you have made some mistake you maybe you are not doing what God wants you to do. Maybe you are not settling for things, you're not listening to so and so's advice. You need to be in that place where you are allowing God to lead you.

6:26 Speaker 2: But can I tell you something When you know without a shadow of a dad that you are righteous in the sight of God, You're doing what God wants you to do. You're standing firm on the convintionions God has placed to you, and you are making sure that you are fulfilling every commandment in accordance to His plan will. His purpose is what He is shared in his world and the principles that He has given through his word. I want to tell you something, even if you feel like in some area you're not seeing an answer, I'm here to announce to you the same way God showed up for Elizabeth and Zsachariah, God will show up in your life.

7:02 Speaker 2: So I want you to hold on. I want you to believe because you need to be certain of the truth that God is faithful. It may not have happened yet, it does not mean it's not going to happen. It just means that at the right time, God will show up at the right time, God will make a way where there seems to be no way. At the right time, God will turn things around in your life. I want you to believe and trust that God is still faithful, like the Word says, that you can be certain of the truth of everything you were taught.

7:34 Speaker 2: I pray that you will be certain saying yes, if God did it for his Sakarai and Elizabeth in showing up in their life, God will turn the negative aspects of my life around. God will show up in the areas where I need a miracle. He will turn things around, and He is faithful to his word. Lord. I pray for those who are in such seasons where they need this word, that You will bless them and so their prayers and they will come back with an amazing destiny in Jesus' name. I pray a really challenge you to leave a comment, share this with someone, and I'll see you back next time.

8:11 Speaker 2: God bless you.
