“Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.” Isaiah 28:16

If you say that something is a sure thing, you mean that you are quite certain that it will most likely happen or be successful. In these days and times there is very little that you can say is a sure thing anymore. Unfortunately, there are millions who feel a sense of hopelessness as to what tomorrow will bring; statistics for substance abuse, suicide, and mental depression to name a few have spiked to an all-time high, surely there must be a safe ground to stand, a succorer and deliverer for us all!

I am here to constantly remind all those under the sound of my small voice that there is, always has been and always will be hope in GOD! He is sovereign and has divine providence over all things both in Heaven and on earth. Isaiah 28:16 clearly points us to the way . . . “Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.”

If God by His unconditional love and amazing grace sent His only begotten Son into this world, who died and excruciating death on the cross for our sins, and on the third day morning was raised by His almighty power that we may have eternal life . . . won’t He deliverer us in the midst of it all? Our hope lies on Jesus the Christ, the only sure foundation, all hope is found in Him now and forever. “For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.” Hebrews 2:18.”

We can rest assured that “Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.” Proverbs 30:5 and regardless to what is occurring in our lives at this present time, praise God we can cling to the peace found in these comforting words “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Isaiah 41:10.

God hears, He sees, and He knows the cares and concerns of His beloved children “And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” Isaiah 65:24.

Yes, my friends…He will always answer our cries for deliverance in due time and He will strengthen us to run this race with patience.

In the meantime, we must all heed His words in 2 Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” He is faithful that promised. Pray, listen and obey. Our hope is built on a sure foundation… on Christ the Solid Rock!

God blessings of peace and grace be with us all.
