GOD’S AMAZING FAITHFULNESS
IN THE VERY MIDST OF YOUR HELL
Written by Kelvin C. Bulger

What does it mean to trust in God’s faithfulness? It means that in the midst of the hell you’re going through and the seemingly impossible circumstances before you, God’s word stands true. He is trustworthy and reliable. In Hebrews 13:5, and Joshua 1:5 the Bible clearly states that “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” This gives the believer a clear set of promises and covenants upon which to stand during the trials of life. Is it easy? Absolutely not! Can it be done? Definitely! 

 On a daily basis, everyone will face trials in life. There is an enemy seeking to steal, kill and destroy everything good in your life. John 10:10. His plan is to continually place issues of fear sickness, lack, doubt, unbelief and others to prevent you from fulfilling your God ordained life purpose. Faith, prayer and patience are mandatory to effectively overcome these trials, fiery dart and flaming arrows. The good news is that In John 16:33 the Bible states that in the world you will have tribulation but be of good cheer I have overcome the world. That means we are world overcomers. That’s good news!

 It is said that there were three phases to the “trial” cycle: (1) you’re going into it; (2) you’re in it; and (3) you just got out of it. Sometimes you’re experiencing all three of the cycles at the same time. In this book I will share personal experiences of how God has demonstrated His faithfulness time and time again in the very midst of the hell I was experiencing. How His faithfulness, grace and mercy brought me through. I pray that as you read through these pages that the Holy Spirit brings revelation, inspiration and the determination for you to continue to fight the good fight of faith.

Kelvin, you fought a good fight, you kept the faith!!!
