Though God often waits a long time to fulfill His promises, He always overdelivers. Remember as you wait, God promises to forgive all your sins, to live in and through you, to never leave you, to always hear you, to meet your every need, to return for you, to resurrect and restore all you've lost, and to cause everything that happens to you to work for your ultimate good. Consider Him faithful who has promises us these things. This message was preached by Pastor Erick Cobb on October 15, 2023.
