How To Inherit God’s Promises

Sometimes, people get discouraged in life because things haven’t turned out the way they hoped so they think it’s never going to happen. But one thing we have to learn is that God honors perseverance. On the way, you may encounter some closed doors but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing. Just as God opens doors for our benefit He closes them on purpose for the same reason.

You have to remember, if God promised it then He’s going to bring it to pass. Scripture tells us that through faith and patience we inherit God’s promises. It’s not going to happen just because the promises exist. This is where faith comes in, this is where patience comes in. Just because you don’t see things happen right away doesn’t mean you should quit. No, instead, you have to soldier up and press forward. The bible says, “Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you.” You have to keep on believing, keep on hoping, keep on asking, because our God is ALWAYS faithful to His word!

Friend, I believe God wants to do a new an amazing thing in your life. He wants to release His blessing and favor in such a way that it’s going to boggle your mind. But you have to do your part and stand in faith. Stand against the people who tell you it’s not going to happen, stand against your own negative thoughts, stand with your head held high and your shoulders back. He is saying to us what He said to Joshua, “This day I’m going to begin to make your name great. This day I’m going to begin to release My favor in a new way. I’m going to open doors that no man can shut.” You need to make room in your thinking for this promise. Keep an attitude of faith and expectancy because your set time is here!
