“Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.”Isaiah 49:15 KJV Beloved, I come to tell you today that God does not forget His promises. It may be delayed but it cannot be denied. I have found out that the testimony is always sweetest when you have passed through hell and high waters and you have been written off. Then suddenly, God steps in. He steps in and you escape like a bird and they are wondering how it happened. In the book of Exodus 2:24, God remembered the covenant He made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob concerning the children of Israel who had been in bondage for 430 years. Those years were enough to make them think they would never come out of Egypt. They had become so used to suffering, slavery and bondage and so, they were not even expecting anything. But God remembered them because Egypt was not their destination. God cannot abandon you. In our world today, it seems as if the best thing to do is to do what others are doing in order not to fail. You can’t fail because you are a new creation. He will surely visit you as He has promised
In the book of Luke chapter 1, Zachariah and Elizabeth were both righteous and walking in all commandments blameless. Yet they had no child and now, they were old. Often times, God would allow every flesh to be silent so that He alone will take the glory. He will not share His glory with another. 
So, do not write yourself off. God will visit you! When the angel came to Zachariah, he doubted. And God said, with or without you, it is already predetermined in heaven. Elizabeth hid herself for five months but after then, the miracle spoke for her. Your own miracle will speak for you too. You will not talk about it. People will see it and say ‘what is this?’  When God remembers you, the miracle will speak.
