Proverbs 23:18 KJV
“For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off”.
There are not too many times where God adds the word “surely” to what He says. I remember how He said in Isaiah 53:4 “surely He has born our griefs and carried our sorrows...”. In Genesis 18:18, He said “seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great nation”. You will notice that the word “surely” mostly shows up in covenant matters. Where God’s integrity is at stake. It is under such a condition that He made this statement. Surely there is an end, and your expectations shall not be cut off.
Please note that it is not a probability, it is not subject to any conditions; no law or government can undo the statement. Times and seasons have no power to undo it. God’s surely is very sure. There is an end to every pain, diseases, poverty, condition of any kind. There is an end because nothing else is allowed to compete with God. He is the only one that has no beginning, therefore He has no end, and so, anything that attempts not to have an end is competing with the Almighty God. Hence, God will not allow that; for besides Him there is no other.
God first brings your negative conditions to an end, and then He begins to fulfill your expectations. All the desires and expectations of your heart were legitimate and God knows about them. Here is His word of commitment to you; ‘they shall not be cut off in Jesus Name’. Has He said it and shall He not bring it to pass, has he said it and shall He not make it good? You shall testify in Jesus Name.
Action Points

Nugget
There is an end to every pain, diseases, poverty, condition of any kind because nothing else is allowed to compete with God.
