February 5, 2009 – “Oh Really Now” February 5, 2009

Good Morning. On Tuesday morning a (ex) co worker and I were discussing how bad the economy and job market was. We were discussing how grateful we were for our jobs. We were discussing how devastating it would be to lose our jobs in today’s times… and 2 hours later we were both jobless. It was almost as if God said, “Oh really now… let me see if your tune changes once you’re actually in that situation.” Every word I’d ever written to each of you came flooding back to me. Every song I’d recommended you all listen to began to play in my ear. After a few tears and a few laughs I began to see what this was really all about. You see, just the day before I wrote about having faith in the line you can’t see and quite frankly, I can’t see the line right now but I know it’s there. God’s greatness hasn’t changed… He is bigger than any “job” there is out there. I can imagine Satan doing the “awww man” move that “Swiper” does in the popular cartoon “Dora The Explorer” because he probably thought I’d turn to him after God “failed me.” Sorry Satan… my God never fails.  The same hold true for each of you. Some of you are facing my trial. Others of you are facing different circumstances but there’s one thing I can put my life on… and that’s :   He Won’t Fail

When you need a song… He Wont Fail by Marvin Sapp          (click cd cover for audio) (When you pray), let Him have His way. (In your moment of prayer), let Him have His way. (In your private time), let Him have His way; He won’t fail. Verse 2: (When He’s working on you), let Him have His way. (When He’s dealing with you), let Him have His way. (When He’s speaking to you), let Him have His way; He won’t fail. Chorus: He won’t fail, He won’t fail, my God won’t ever fail. Verse 3: (When He calls on you), let Him have His way. (When He’s reaching out for you), let Him have His way. (When His presence is here), let Him have His way; He won’t fail. Chorus Vamp: He won’t fail, my God won’t ever fail.

Scripture To Remember:  Phillippians 4:6-7 Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life. Job 1: 21 Naked I came from my mother’s womb, naked I’ll return to the womb of the earth.God gives, God takes. God’s name be ever blessed.

So… here I am… waiting on God to instruct me on what’s next. Will you pray for me? I promise I’ll return the favor. Until then…     Lady Doss
