Faith and Fellowship: The Promises of God
The promises of God are always Yes and Amen! Whenever we stand on the promises of God, we have the surety of knowing that the God we serve is not slack concerning his promises. Being a child of God means trusting God completely. When we commit our lives to obeying and believing in God, we know that God’s promises are true.
The word promise appears more than 100 times in the word of God. Some have suggested that there may be as many as 30,000 promises contained within the sacred scriptures. As believers we can agree with 1 Kings 8:56 which teaches us “ Praise Be to the Lord...Not one word has failed of all the good promise he gave through his servant Moses”. As believers each and everyone of us can share in the promise of Christ: God’s timing is always perfect and on time.
As we stand on the promises of our precious Lord and Savior, we know the Savior will never let us down. He promises to be here for us in our time of need. 2 Corinthians 1:20 tells us “For no matter how many . promises God has made, they are “YES” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen “ is spoken by us to the glory of God”.
Let us always remember God keeps his word. When he says he’ll do something, he does it. When he makes promises, he keeps them.
The songwriter penned it by saying “Promise keeper you will never fail, your Love is true. Promise keeper you deliver on your word. And I will trust you. Your word remains.” We must trust God and the promises of God. God will fulfill every promise to you.
Sweet are the promises of God; kind is God’s word, there should be shower of God’s blessings; this is the promise of Love. Thank you good and gracious God for every promise!!
May God so richly bless!
