The Promises of God

“Not one word has failed of all His good promise” (1 Kings 8:56; AMPC). “For all the promises of God find their yes in Him” (! Cor 1:20; ESV). In 2 Peter 1:4 we are told that we have been given these promises in order that we may share in God’s nature. That in itself is a wonderful promise!
I understand that there are about 8,810 promises in the Bible. Whatever your need is today, I am sure you would be able to find a promise to take care of that need. In addition, we have the promise of eternal life (John 3:16; 1 John2:25), the promise of the return of Jesus (Acts 1:11), the promise of protection (Ps 121:7-8) and the list goes on and on.
Let’s look at a few specific promises today. In Acts 1:4,5 Jesus commanded His disciples to wait for the promise of the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 6:3 refers to the first commandment with a promise that if we honour our parents, “all will be well with you and you may live long on the earth” (Eph 6:3; AMPC). In Hebrews 4:1 we have the promise of “entering His rest.” One of the most all-encompassing promises is found in Philippians 4:19, “And My God will liberally supply (fill to the full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus” (AMPC). This could refer to any kind of need we might have.
God is reliable and faithful (Heb 10:23) so we can put our trust in all His promises. If you have a need today, find one of God’s promises that relate to your need and stand and keep on standing on that promise until you see the fulfillment.
