promise of God

A promise can be defined as :"Words said or written, binding a person to do or not to do something." 

            We make a promise , giving our word that we will do something  or  may not do something.  Since the world is filled with a mixture of happy and unhappy substances, we are mostly interdependent, clinging on to somebody for something throughout our life time.

       As Christians we usually claim the promises God has given us. 

The Promises given by God to provide strength and  faith ,to walk victoriously.

 

God has given no promise which HE will not do or HE cannot do, and HE encouraged us with hope saying that He will fulfill or accomplish it in appropriate time.

           God is unchangeable, and   since He will not lie as we humans do, He will continue to be mindful  and watchful of us to fulfill His promise for the future as  He has doing   in the past .

Remember how HE lead you in your trails, troubles and in your inabilities.

       A promise is a promise from GOD – nobody can change it.

No power of this world can overrule it or make it a failure

GOD will do that in HIS own time.

 Wait  patiently and Pray. 

Have Faith in HIM. 

                       A big  question arise, Will God break His promise then?

No, God keeps His promise and God will be right there   beside you , talking and  dealing with his heart until things may turn to be alright.

There is a difference between A command from God is something man should do; a Promise from God is something God will do.

A command must be obeyed, A Promise must be believed. 

When God gives a command He says, "YOU WILL"-

 “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.”(Deuteronomy  6:5) 

             When God gives a promise He says,

 "I WILL", ‘I am the LORD', and I will bring you out ….. I will free you …. I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and … I will take you as my own people, … I will be your God. ( Exodus 6:6-8)

The emphatic way "I WILL’s"  from this verse automatically will strengthen us.

         

“Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:7-9

Stand still and consider the wondrous works of God. Job 37:14
                                                                                 

Come unto me, ye who are weary and overburdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28
                                                                                 -
Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart.  Wait, I say on the Lord. Psalms 27:14
                                                                             -
"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11

BE CHEERFUL.

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIMES

ALL THE TIMES GOD IS GOOD.

God bless
