Rev. Dr. Isaac Holt, Jr. | Royal Missionary Baptist Church

“…and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon…” (Genesis 41:14) This week, Rev. Dr. Isaac Holt, Jr. keys in on the life of Joseph the day that he went from the prison to the palace. “Your next blessing is closer than it seems. This message is for somebody about to give up,” he says. “If God said he will do it, it doesn’t matter how far away objects appear in my physical view. I’ve got to walk by faith and not by sight because my blessing, my breakthrough, my comeback, my promotion, my healing, my house, my degree are closer than they appear.” Listen as Pastor Holt explains that, “Even if my eyes can’t see it. My faith can see it. My faith can see that God is still moving. My faith can see that God is still answering prayer and making ways and opening doors and working on it. God is still blessing. I can see it all around me! That’s why my eyes don’t get jealous when I see someone else getting blessed before me.” We believe God with you that God is about to speak a word that is especially for you.
