“Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.”
Isaiah 51:11. KJV

Beloved, today I want to let you know that you will not sing the song of death. You will sing the song of celebration and rejoicing. The redeemed of the Lord shall surely return and everlasting joy shall be in their mouth. Mourning and sorrow shall disappear. And you will testify of the goodness of God.

Your life is in the hands of God. He knows how to keep you alive. The enemy wants you to mourn but God says no. You will only have songs of rejoicing in your lips. That will be your portion in Christ.

Do you know that it is an insult to the finished work of Christ to be serving God and thinking there is no hope for you? There is nothing like hopelessness for a believer. Like our father, Abraham, who against hope, believed in hope; you also have the capacity to trust God, even against hope. Abraham’s hope was a supernatural hope! It was a confident expectation!

God opened His mouth and said it. Therefore, the onus lies on Him to bring it to pass. You may not understand how it will work out; just trust Him to bring it to pass. Even if the doctor has said it would not work; if God says it will work, leave it to God. He is the Almighty. Glory to God!

Sometimes believers give up hope easily and that bothers me. We panic a lot over situations, circumstances, over dreams and aspirations. Meanwhile, unknown to us, God is working behind the scene. Like Job, you have to come to the point where you can say: “Even if He slays me; I will still trust Him because I know my Redeemer lives.  I will wait all the days of my life until my change comes” That is the mentality you need to have. I prophesy over your life that your dreams and aspirations will be fulfilled.
