Once, in the center of infinite-eternity, in the very foundation of your life and all that you are, you and Yahweh came together in a Covenant and created a Promise.
It is this Promise that is immutable and governs your existence. It is to this Promise you must be faithful, choosing to follow Yahweh in all things so that you can bring this Promise to full manifestation to the point that it is something that not only you can see by faith, but all of the world can see and know that the hand of Yahweh has done this and give Him glory and honor in the Earth.
This Promise was a joint venture between you and Yahweh. Yahweh, the omnipotent God of Everything poured His entire Being into this venture. This Promise is only breakable by you, and if you are faithful, this Promise is omnipotent.
Everything stemming from your Promise is then omnipotent.
This gives me great hope and pleasure because it means that, as long as I am faithful, anything bad or negative that I experience cannot damage my Promise. It also gives me direction and focus. Do I need to spend time trying to avoid all the negative things that living in a fallen world can throw at me or do I need to focus on the Promise and the fact that nothing can hinder, stop, or come against it? "No weapon formed against me may prosper."
Nothing that tries to stop me in my Promise from being fulfilled has the possibility of hurting me! As I move deeper and deeper into my Promise, I begin to see more and more clearly and I can be less and less worried about these weapons that don't matter.
If I look back at my past, filled with depression, anxiety, loneliness, panic attack-inducing fear, and lack of identity and purpose, I can honestly say that none of that hurt my Promise. It was not fun. I never want to do it again. Yet I am still here and still enjoying the fullness of Yahweh and His Promise to me. Nothing out of my life has been stolen, and everything has been and is being redeemed. Yahweh is faithful! I am faithful!
Many times people look back at their past and that induces fear for the future. I remember when I was mired in depression and I only saw sadness ahead because that was basically all I could remember feeling. We tend to pattern our futures off of our pasts, reasoning in our finite minds that what has been will always be and unless we take great and sometimes futile efforts to change, our futures will be as miserable as our pasts were.
But Yahweh does not say that. In fact, when the temple was rebuilt in Jerusalem after the 70 years of captivity in Babylon, those who saw it wept at its lack of splendor and glory compared to the temple of Solomon. But Yahweh said that the glory of the latter temple should eclipse the glory of the former temple, and it was so when in that temple, Yahshua entered and taught about His Father. It was the veil in that temple that was torn in two from top to bottom, and it was that temple that was standing when it ceased to be the temple of Yahweh and that honor was given to us when Holy Spirit came upon man. That is glory, indeed!
We shall be so much more glorious. The glory of our futures shall completely eclipse the glory of the past and even the present, no matter how awful or wonderful the past was. In Yahweh, we can only ever increase. In Yahweh, nothing can ever stop that. Nothing can come against and stop your Promise from growing and expressing so long as you have the faith to see.
And even then, the Promise is finished and immutable. It is more firm and sure than the stars in the sky or the very foundation of the Earth. It is as Yahweh is, for it all exists in Him.
He who has eyes to see let him see, and he who has ears to hear let him hear! HalleluYah! Amen.
