What if some were unfaithful? Will their unfaithfulness nullify God’s faithfulness? Not at all! (Romans 3:3-4)
The more time we spend in the Word of God, the more familiar we become with His promises. Now the evil one likes to sow seeds of doubt in our minds when we are messing things up to cause us to shrink back from the life God is calling us to live and pressing into God’s promises. But today’s passage makes one thing perfectly clear, nothing we do can nullify any of the thousands of promises God has made to His people. Here are just a few to encourage you today in both the Old and New Testaments:
God has promised . . .
To be near us when we pray – Deuteronomy 4:7
To be with us wherever we go – Joshua 1:9
To be our peace – Judges 6:24
To turn our darkness into light – 2 Samuel 22:29
To fill our dry valleys with water – 2 Kings 3:16
To direct our steps – Proverbs 3:6
To bind up our wounds – Hosea 6:1
To be our refuge in times of trouble – Nahum 1:7
I will make you fishers of men – Matthew 4:19
I will give you rest – Matthew 11:28
I will ask the Father, and he will give you the Holy Spirit – John 14:16
I will come back and take you to be with me – John 14:3
Remember, what God has promised, God will do. He has never broken a promise in the past and He is not about to start now. As I have said many times over the decades in training athletes and life coaching others, if you can see the PROMISE, you will pay the PRICE. Look to the promises of God and let them propel you into the perfect plan and purpose He has for your imperfect life.
This is the Gospel. This is grace for your race. NEVER FORGET THAT . . . AMEN!
