Resting On His Promise
Youthful Praise Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My Father promised to supply all my needs
With His riches in glory
He gives seed to the barren
And food to famine
So I know that He'll take care of me
So I know that He'll take care of me

Jireh, who He is
Providing is, what He does
He won't let me lack, won't let me beg
Cause I'm His child, and He loves me

I'm resting on His promise
I know He's working it out for me
I'm resting on His promise
I know, that God is covering me

My Fathers' rich, in houses and land
All power is in His hand
No recession, depression, or repossession
And with hope, the blessings He has for me

Jireh, who He is
Providing is, what He does
He won't let me lack, won't let me beg
Cause I'm His child, and He loves me

I'm resting on His promise
I know He's working it out for me
I'm resting on His promise
I know, that God is covering me

Go to sleep at night, don't worry
Your bills will be paid
Ways will be made
Put you mind at ease
Cause your Father
Won't leave nor forsake you

Go to sleep at night, don't worry
Doors will be opened
That you thought were closed
Put you mind at ease
Cause your father will
Never leave you nor forsake you

We just come to stamp notice on the devil
That no matter what happens, we're gonna be okay
'Cause we're covered by the blood of Jesus
and no weapon that is formed against us is going to be able to prosper
And no crime will come near our dwelling place

Your covered, don't you worry
Your covered, don't you worry
Rest, on His promise
Rest, on His promise

I'm covered, don't you worry
I'm covered, don't you worry
Rest, on His promise
Rest, on His promise

I'm still singing, I'm still shouting
I'm still dancing, I'm still praising

I'm covered, I'm not worried
I'm covered, I'm not worried

I'm covered

Sometimes I find it unfathomable that so many people don't believe there's a God. I've had spotty employment for the past 10 years due to illness. Then, during the beginning of Covid 19, whilst people were losing employment, I became gainfully employed. After almost 2 years on the job, due to reduction in workforce, I was laid off. I still trusted God but I was little upset because I really enjoyed just about everything within this job. Now, God has given me another job with a prestigious company, with a much higher salary. And I say it's God's favor and having a praying Grandma and Great Grandmother. Not bad for a boy starting out living in the pj's, with only an AS degree. I'm nothing without God, He's put me in places that I shouldn't have been and saved me from self-destruction! I feel empowered after hearing this song and reading the testimony of others, receiving their breakthrough! Glory be to God! Thank you in Jesus's name!

God brought this song to remembrance when I was facing a financial situation. God told me to go to sleep and the next day God divinely supplied the money I needed and I had money left over.
