MESSAGE
Are you in the middle of a project and it looks as if it will not be completed because of the situations surrounding your life? Don’t lose heart because there are precious promises of God for over that project. It may be a stalling building project or an inability to complete a course at the right time. Our God has His eyes on you and His promise for your life over that project is very sure.
Everywhere in the Bible, you will see how God helped men to start a project and finish it. From Noah to Moses, Solomon, and others, God helped them to finish the project they started. Your case is not an exception
Even if enemies or challenges raise as Sanballat and Tobiah, the Lord God of heavens and earth will help you to complete that project. In our text of the day, God promised that your hands which have started that project will finish it.
In another promise, the Bible says that you can be confident in the fact that the God who started the good work in you will surely complete it even till the time of our Lord Jesus Christ (Philippians 1:6).
The Bible says our God will bring you to an expected end in His own economy. This is because He said that sure there is an end and your expectations shall not be cut short. Every abandoned project will be completed this season if you dare believe and claim His words.
Rather than being anxious, you should be praising God who will bring you to perfect completion. Our God is not a God of abandoned projects. When He started creation, He certainly completed it, so therefore He will help you complete those projects.
You can also be certain God will see to it that you end your Christian journey well and strongly. The Bible says that you can look up to Jesus who is the author and finisher of your faith. Everything will end in praise in Jesus’ name.

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
