When it feels like God’s promises are slow to show up, it’s easy to wonder if He’s still working. In this episode, discover how the faithful God keeps every word, even in the places and moments we least expect.

Ever felt like God’s promises were taking too long?

When life gets hard or the world looks dark, it can seem like His Word isn’t coming true. But Scripture reminds us that God is still keeping His promises. He is still changing lives and building His kingdom.

In today’s devotion, you’ll hear the story of the growing underground church in Iran, where thousands are meeting Jesus despite persecution. Surveys now show more than a million believers. This is proof that God is doing exactly what He said He would: building His church and proving Himself Faithful and True.

You may not see the headlines or understand the timeline, but you can trust the heart of the One who never fails.

Main Scriptures:

Deuteronomy 7:9 – “Understand, therefore, that the LORD your God is indeed God. He is the faithful God who keeps his covenant for a thousand generations and lavishes his unfailing love on those who love him and obey his commands.” 

Revelation 19:11 – “Then I saw heaven opened, and a white horse was standing there. Its rider was named Faithful and True, for he judges fairly and wages a righteous war.” 

By the end of this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why God’s promises are never delayed—they’re right on time
• How faith grows when you can’t yet see the outcome
• The global proof that God is still building His church

Today’s Challenge:

Find one promise of God that feels distant or delayed. Write it on a note card and pray: “Lord, I trust You to fulfill this in Your time. Help me see how You’re already at work.”
