God Never Fails

"And the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision and engrave it so plainly upon tablets that everyone who passes may [be able to] read [it easily and quickly] as he hastens by. For the vision is yet for an appointed time and it hastens to the end [fulfillment]; it will not deceive or disappoint. Though it tarry, wait [earnestly] for it, because it will surely come; it will not be behindhand on its appointed day."
(Habakkuk 2:2-3 AMP)

Has God given you a vision, a plan, a magnificent obsession?  Wait for it!

Worship God

Built on Rock

"And I tell you, you are Peter [Greek, Petros—a large piece of rock], and on this rock [Greek, petra—a huge rock like Gibraltar] I will build My Church, and the gates of Hades (the powers of the infernal region) shall not overpower it [or be strong to its detriment or hold out against it]."
(Matthew 16:18 AMP)

"Simon Peter replied, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."

Fear is useless

Matthew 14:29-30

"Jesus said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus.  But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.”

(Matthew 14:31 NLT)

The Precious Promises of Jesus

"All you who are thirsty,
come to the water!
You who have no money,
come, buy grain and eat;
Come, buy grain without money, wine and milk without cost!
Why spend your money for what is not bread;
your wages for what does not satisfy?
Only listen to me, and you shall eat well, you shall delight in rich fare." (Isaiah 55: 1-2)

" And they all ate and were satisfied. "  (Matthew 14: 20)
