Promises from the Bible

Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring [it] to pass. And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. Psalm 37: 3-6

Reflection

When taking satisfaction in Christ, our desires immediately change from our selfish ways and turn toward a desire to please Him. He is our loving Father who wishes to bless His children by forming us in His righteousness. As we continue to commit our ways to Him, He works through us causing complete delight and joy in Him. It is this joy and peace that gives us the strength to seek Him daily.


See now that I, [even] I, [am] he, and [there is] no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither [is there any] that can deliver out of my hand. Deuteronomy 32:39

Reflection

None may secure us away from the hand of the Lord! Or as the Apostle Paul proclaimed in Romans 8:38-39, neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. Amen and amen.


I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. Psalm 32:8

Reflection

What a wonderful promise! Because of our Father's remarkable love and grace, He assures us that He will be our teacher and will continually keep His hand upon us forevermore. God is able to direct and guide us through any surprise or difficulty! May we rejoice in the promise of His sovereignty and greatness! May we find tremendous encouragement in the confidence that He is always with us!


I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee. Isaiah 44:22

Reflection

Sing, O people of God, the praises of your heavenly Father for the abundant riches of your redemption. While you were drowning in the mire of your own sin, He pulled you forth and cleansed you unto purity. While you were buried under the gravestone-weight of your own death, He redeemed your spirit, raising you to new life and fashioning you as a creature anew. Praise Him for such unhesitating lovingkindness for He alone is worthy of such esteem.
