#gods promise

[alilarew23]

what if god said yes

what if you got quiet. what if you got so quiet and you curled up in a little ball in your bed with a stuffed animal or a blanket or a pillow and you said, “god, can we talk?” and because god is you and you are god you didn’t have to wait and you didn’t have to go anywhere at all and—“yes,” god said. and you said, “god, i want an apartment with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city.” “god, i want the boy with the kind eyes and tattoo-covered arms and exquisite taste in music.” “god, i want to feel alive again.” “god, i want to travel first-class to switzerland.” “god, i want a hound dog named finn.” and god said, “yes.” and you said, “but how can you make this happen?” and god said, “i can make anything happen.” and you said, “quickly?” and god said, “i love you. why would i not make this rapid?” and you said, “i can trust you?” and god said, “like your life depends on it.” and you said, “my life does depend on it.” and god said, “i know. i’ve got it now. you’re safe. let me take care of it.” and you hugged god. and god hugged you. and you hugged yourself. and you drifted off to sleep saying, “i have it. i’m safe. i have it. i’m safe. i have it. i’m—” and you woke in the morning and the world was new. because you knew it was done. because god said yes. and god never goes back on a yes unless you tell god “no.” and any time throughout the day you thought, “is anything happening?” god said, “it’s all happening.” and you said, “but i can’t see a thing.” and god said, “i am your eyes.” and you said, “but i don’t have to do anything?” and god said, “you did the only thing needed.” and you said, “but what about my thoughts and my state and acting as if?” and god said, “i love you.” and you knew what that meant. so instead of worrying or wondering or obsessing another second, you went to the bakery and bought a slice of chocolate cake and drove home and sat on your back deck and ate and ate and watched the sunset and celebrated.

Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭9‬-‭13‬ ‭LSB

Let love be without hypocrisy—by abhorring what is evil, clinging to what is good...

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭8‬:‭13‬ ‭NASB1995

The fear of the Lord is to hate evil;

Pride and arrogance and the evil way

And the perverted mouth, I hate.

Psalm 5‬:‭4‬-‭5‬ ‭LSB‬‬

For You are not a God who delights in wickedness;

Evil does not sojourn with You.

The boastful shall not stand before Your eyes;

You hate all workers of iniquity.

‭‭1 John‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬-‭10‬ ‭LSB

And this is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not do the truth; but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.

- life -

i genuinely think one of the most heartbreaking things someone can say is anything along the lines of

“god doesn’t want me to be happy”

“why does this happen to me god isn’t there for me”

cause i know that in those situations that lead you to say that that you can’t accept that everything happens for a reason and that we need to trust gods plan for us

so if you’re reading this just know that god loves you and he has a path set out for you

the day will come

He leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul.

— Psalm 23:2-3

please drop everything and

listen to me. i am telling you. your desires are a promise. a literal promise. i cannot tell you how they are coming. i cannot tell you when. i can only tell you that, by the fact of them already existing in your imagination, they are YOURS. it is a done deal. this is not something you are hoping for, no crossed fingers, no “ok but if it doesn’t happen i will…”

no. there is no if involved here. it is a yes. the surest yes you’ve ever received.

let that sink in. really let it sink.

now how do you feel? what are you thinking? what are you doing? what are you planning?

THAT IS THE STATE OF THE WISH FULFILLED.

that is living in the end.

that is knowing.

and that is ALL that is required to receive your physical manifestation.

this should be fun. this should be light. you have been granted your greatest gift.

won’t you celebrate?

just go about your life like this. try it. stop aggressively monitoring your thoughts and state and giving power to a silly worry or doubt or split-second experience of “lack.”

just know the gift is granted (fuck the crossed fingers this is pinky promised) (yes i got bars) and do your thing.

also, enjoy your present life! go hang out with friends! bake a cake! write a poem! climb a mountain! put on your favorite song and dance and sing! smoke some weed!

you are already whole. you are loved. you are safe.

your desire is just icing on le proverbial cake.

i believe in you. i love you. i can’t wait to read about all your successes.

muah 💋

Titus‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭3‬ ‭

Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the sake of the faith of God’s elect and their knowledge of the truth, which accords with godliness, in hope of eternal life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began and at the proper time manifested in His word through the preaching with which I have been entrusted by the command of God our Savior.

‭‭Numbers‬ ‭23‬:‭19‬ ‭

God is not man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not fulfill it?

Hebrews‬ ‭10‬:‭23‬

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

[pashurr]

The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. -2 Peter 3:9

I had always thought that it says The LORD is not slackening concerning His promises. But it actually says His promise, singular not plural. And this promise is of His coming according to verse 4 of chapter 3. And clearly if you look at the context its talking about the end and the day of the Lord. I had always thought that the promises of God over my life is what Peter is talking about which is clearly not the case.
