Eu Tenho a Promessa

Rafael Ramos' song 'Eu Tenho a Promessa' is a powerful declaration of faith and trust in divine promises. The lyrics emphasize the unwavering nature of God's love and faithfulness, even in the face of life's challenges. The repeated assertion that 'Aquele que começou a boa obra é fiel pra terminar' (He who began the good work is faithful to complete it) serves as a reminder that divine plans are steadfast and will come to fruition, regardless of obstacles. This message is reinforced by the imagery of mountains moving, symbolizing significant challenges, yet God's love remains unchanged.

The song also highlights the eternal and unchanging nature of God, describing Him as 'o mesmo ontem, hoje e sempre' (the same yesterday, today, and forever). This timelessness provides a sense of security and hope for believers, knowing that God's promises are reliable and enduring. The lyrics 'Teus planos, não mudam; Tua luz, não cessa; Teus sonhos, inundam a vida de quem tem promessa' (Your plans do not change; Your light does not cease; Your dreams flood the life of those who have a promise) further emphasize the constancy and abundance of divine blessings for those who hold onto their faith.

The song culminates in a celebratory tone, with the repeated phrase 'Ah, eu tenho a promessa' (Ah, I have the promise) serving as a joyful affirmation of the believer's confidence in God's promises. The mention of 'Maranata' (an Aramaic term meaning 'Come, Lord') and the anticipation of Christ's return adds an eschatological dimension, encouraging listeners to remain hopeful and expectant. The call to accept this promise 'Pode ser agora' (It could be now) invites everyone to embrace this faith and join in the celebration of divine assurance.
