“Every promise of the Lord your God has come true. Not a single one has failed.” Joshua 23:14
A promise is a declaration or assurance that one will do a particular thing, or a particular thing will happen. It is so very clear that the promises of our God in heaven are gifts to his children. They are gifts that have been bestowed upon each of us as children of God. In our world today we see more taking back of promises or lying about promises rather than faithful promises being kept and fulfilled. It is very easy for us to not believe someone when they promise us something. We seem to carry those unbelief’s through to our Lord. It is hard to believe that time won’t change God’s heart and he may want to take his promises back, unfulfilled. However, that is not the characteristic of our God. He loves us. He gave his one and only Son to die for us and he never changes. He has never and will never go back on any gift he has given us. He is faithful! When we pray, he hears us. When we ask, we receive. When we receive, we should accept and not reject his gracious promises. We should never take lightly the gifts our God bestows upon us. They are real and are powerful. We must have strong faith. Let us all take the time to enter into a time of conversation with our Lord each day. Let us be quiet before the Lord and wait for him to answer us. Let us read and study his mighty word. When we do these things, we increase the strength of our faith, and we are able to recognize and accept the promises God has bestowed upon us. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
