Joshua 23:14 "And, behold, this day I am going the way of all the earth: and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spake concerning you; all are come to pass unto you, and not one thing hath failed thereof."
Israel came to know God as their protector and guide. They came to know Him as their provider, as they wandered for forty years without their shoes and clothing wearing out. They came to know Him as their deliverer in battles, and they came to know Him as the God Who heals.
The Prophet Isaiah declared that the plans of God will not fail:
Isaiah 42:4 "He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law."
This prophecy means that the Lord will not fail nor be discouraged until He establishes justice in the earth. Jesus did not fail at the cross or become discouraged on His way there. He set His face like a flint to reach that heaven-set goal of becoming the supreme sacrifice for sin. He was not discouraged when others misunderstood Him, mocked, persecuted, forsook, and denied Him. He pressed on until His destiny was fulfilled until He was able to declare from the cross, "It is finished!" Today He continues to be faithful as your intercessor in the throne room of God.
As you labor to fulfill your destiny, do not become discouraged if your journey seems long and arduous. When the time is right, Jesus will appear in the clouds of glory to catch His people up to the heavens and He will begin the judgment which will bring justice on the world. Draw strength and determination from the God who cannot fail. March forward to even greater victories during the coming year. Moving forward under the mandate of God to fulfill your divine destiny, allow nothing in heaven or on earth to hinder you.
Make this final declaration of praise to God:
1 Kings 8:56 “Blessed be the Lord, that hath given rest unto His people…according to all that He promised: there hath not failed one word of all His good promise, which He promised”
