God Never Fails – D.James

Only recently I was thinking of my journey at UWI. I had just finished bible school and I remembered praying asking God about whether I should enrol at UWI. You see I never thought that studying at this level was for me. I even questioned whether I could manage the workload. After praying, I recalled hearing the spirit saying apply and I did. To my surprise, the deadline had passed. So I went to God and this time I heard “trust me”. About a week or two weeks after I received a phone call from UWI and the lady said she received my application. Furthermore, she asked if can bring in documents the following day because they have already started processing applications. A few days later I received my acceptance letter.

I remember going back to God in prayer saying to Him “you got me in, now I need you to sustain me” and He promised He will. Honestly, I had no idea how I was going to pay for UWI and how I was going to pass my courses. I remember the first day of school I prayed “God please I don’t want to fail any of my courses. I don’t want to stay in this place longer than the time assigned to me. I can testify that I’ve not failed a course up to this point and each semester my grades got better and better. The lowest grade to date is one C+ and that in itself is another testimony of God answering prayer. I walked out that exam room with tears in my eyes believing to myself I failed. When I got home I cried. Sacha and I prayed and I reminded God of His promise to sustain me. Whilst on our honeymoon I decided to check. When I saw the C+ it was as if I got an A+. Thank you God was the first thing I recalled escaping my lips followed up with babes I pass. This semester my grades were A+ with one A-.
