Until It’s Done

Faith is the strength that carries us through to completion. God calls us to trust Him not only when the vision is fresh but also when the work becomes hard and the finish line seems far away. True faith perseveres through obstacles, believing that what God begins He will also bring to fulfilment.

Every promise of God requires endurance. Noah built the ark for years before the rain came. Abraham waited decades for the promised son. Their faith was not a momentary feeling but a continual decision to trust God’s word despite delay. Our task is to keep praying, keep serving, and keep believing until His purpose is accomplished.

The Bible assures us, “Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus” (Philippians 1:6 NIV). Faith holds firm until the job is done.
