Whatever God Has Promised Us, it Will Come to Pass

An independent thinker with a profound call to see the orthodoxy of the church and passion for Christ manifesting together. Angel was born in Brooklyn, New York in April of 1968, he was raised on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico where he earned his B.S. degree in Sociology with a minor in Education from the Inter American University in San Germán in 1991. That same year he moved to Jacksonville, Florida. After working construction jobs for a year and learning the English language, his first job working with foster-care children in the capacity of youth care worker was with Jacksonville Youth Sanctuary in September of 1992. With JYS he was promoted several times as group home supervisor, legal caseworker, and program director. While in Jacksonville, Angel studied a couple of martial arts styles. After earning his black belt, he became the founder of Good Fight Ministries as he used martial arts as an instrument to preach the gospel. In 2004 Angel was selected Martial Arts Instructor of the Year for the State of Florida and in 2005 Angel was inducted in the USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame where he also received the Christian Spirit Award. In July of 2005 Angel accepted his call to pastor a bilingual church in Winton, NC where he served for a couple of years. Five months later he lost his first wife to cancer in December of that same year. This initiated a deep valley of suffering in his life, a mountain of costly mistakes and the embracing of lifestyles of sin that are well documented through this blog. In August of 2012 Angel moved to Fairbanks Alaska with his wife Rayette Casiano and six children who are now adults. In Alaska, Angel continued his social work-related career and his ministry of preaching, teaching and writing. Angel is the author of two books, Hope for the divorcee: Forgiving and Moving Forward and 7 Banderas de Esperanza: La Bendición de Yokdzonot. In January 8th of 2020 Angel and his wife moved to Arizona. View all posts by angelcasiano

The perpetual challenge is to keep believing! God’s promises may be fulfilled exactly as you expected, and in most cases they may also affect other parts of your life that you could not have previously imagined, in a healthy, positive way!
It is not uncommon, occasionally, to discover that certain desires never known, still come to pass. They are bonuses from God! There are also others that deliver much more than one could have ever believed or anticipated!
The full validity of any desire is not based on how easy its realization may be. Even when it may appear out of human reach, one should not be intimidated so as to stop believing. Some come to fruition rather swiftly, while others require a lifetime for full achievement. Setbacks shall inevitably accompany them in their course, but if God is truly in them their fulfillment is guaranteed!
Whenever a desire is shattered before becoming reality, don’t stop trusting. Instead, trust a new desire. Make it more aligned with God’s perfect will, which He can readily reveal to you in His Word, as you diligently seek His assistance! Life entails a series of revisions and adjustments so that we may more effectively harmonize with God’s unique design for each of us every step of the way.
As author Wayne Cordeiro wisely reflects, “God-sized dreams don’t come pre-assembled. They come in kit form. I start with what I have. If God sees me as faithful with even a little, then He will add more.” In making your desires your destiny, imitate King David in his affirmation to the Almighty, “I delight to do your will, O my God, and Your law is within my heart” (Psalm 40:8). With such outlook and determination, you may confidently anticipate your destiny from your desires!
