Extraordinary Promises Poem by Ishmael Mabhiza

The promises of God are bankable
They are futuristic, he does not work in reverse gear.
They have no rear view mirror and reverse gear like an aeroplane
Because these are the things that are to come

God is not even talking about youbeing a lodger
He is not talking about your job
Do not make a mistake to look at your problems of the day
All you must have is a vision for tomorrow

Do not be slaggish, but wear patience and temperance
Even though there is nothing in your pocket,
Even though you say you are nobody
Just be convinced andthank the Lord for riches

Understand that the promises of God are immutable
His stature does not change, His promises to Abraham are still valid
When God promises it is as good as its done
Has He promised it, will He not do it?

When we forsake the promises of God
We moved out of lust, thus we move on with a vision
You have to have a higher vision-
You must have peacable inhabitation
You must not be a instant miracle desirer

Count it all joy when you face trial and affliction
There is no short cut, endure until things begin to happen
We count that our temporary light affliction
Shall not outweigh the Glory we shall get
Crawl if it bears towards your vision

Today throw away your watch and be determined on the vision
Dont float like air, be anchored in the word of God
Study, work with your hands slowly but surely
Work towards endurance, have patiance
Have a vision and God will never tell you the time
Stick in the process and you are transformed in the process

Joseph was transformed in the jail
When he came out he was ready to work
He working on his vision and the promises of God
They tried to kill it but God's promises
But he crawled ahead to the vision and God's extra ordinary oaths

There are financial instruments called bonds
The promises of God are exceedingly precious
Do not allow people's comments to stagnate the promises of God
