But God You Promised, What's Happening When Nothings Happening
()
About this ebook
The purpose of “But God, You Promised...” is to connect with the heart of believers who are experiencing a “silent” God in the midst of a wilderness wandering, waiting for their promise to materialize. It is a peek into His process of development: when it appears nothing is happening, is when everything is happening.
By examining the life of Joseph, we will see that it is this very promise from the Lord that becomes the instrument of our purification and development. It is in this long wilderness time that our character and skills are developed, preparing us for the fulfillment of His promise.
But God, You Promised... is to nudge your faith, encouraging you to keep on keepin’ on! God has you right where he wants you!

INTRODUCTION
This is not meant to be a big book of theology, nor is it a dissertation on some new revelation of scripture, but it’s a short story of inspiration. I desire to connect with the heart of every believer who is experiencing a silent
God in the midst of a wilderness, waiting for his or her promise to materialize. I want to bring you some hope, to bump your faith up another notch, to inspire you to keep on keepin’ on!
Using the life of Joseph and cameo appearances from Abraham, Moses, and David I plan to explore how the promises we receive from God can actually be the instruments of our refining and character development. It’s the purpose of this process to equip and prepare us for the
