Trust God In Spite of What It Looks Like!

God has made some promises to me. Some of those promises are over 7 years old. For those of you who believe in biblical numerology you know that 7 is the number of completion and I am looking forward to my New Beginnings (the number 8). Bless the Lord! I am ready for some stuff to be over. God has been telling me for years, “Angela, just trust Me!” If I am honest with you, I sense that I, like many of you, am on the verge of seeing the promises of God fulfilled.

Have I been afraid?

Have I wanted to give up?

Has my faith been brought into question?

Have there been days when I questioned what God promised me?

YES! YES! YES and YES!

God has told me that all I am going through is to move me into the purpose and plan He has for my life, but I have to trust Him.

Pastor Fredrick L. Fairley, the Pastor of the Berean Church of Phoenix, AZ and my father in the gospel ministry preached, “Trust God In Spite Of What It Looks Like,” at a point in my life when I needed to be reminded. There was some crazy stuff going on at my job. I don’t know where you are or what your level of faith or trust in God is but whereever you are God wants you to trust Him like never before. Give Him control and recognize that your present level of trust, the trust you had yesterday, will not sustain you through the next level He has for you.

Allow Him to grow you and to grow your faith. Check out the podcast of the sermon from Pastor Fairley, “Trust God In Spite Of What It Looks Like!” Since the day I heard it I have listened to it everyday. Each time I listen I hear something new and different for me. I have seen God raising my level of trust in Him. Trust for this ministry, trust for my job and trust for my relationships. I pray as you take the time to listen God will raise your level of trust as well. Don’t give up, don’t throw in the towel, trust God.

Love and Blessings to you

We just worked out spiritually. If you have not worked out your physical temple get up and put your video in or go for a walk, but do something. Remember to work out at least 3 times per week (20-30 minutes per day) to experience a New Beginning physically. Work out to music, workout and pray. Just workout.
