TODAY’S VERSE
Because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.
II Peter 1:4
TODAY’S THOUGHT
If I were to create a secular society, one of my top rules would be “Keep your promises.” It is a building block of civil society. Is there anything more reassuring than a promise? Is there anything more demoralizing than a promise that is broken? In the spiritual realm, God is the promise keeper. Peter tells us that God has given us great and precious promises designed to help us be like Him. The Psalmist tells us that God’s promises are backed by all the honor of His name. The question is, do you know what God has promised you? As you read the Scriptures, you realize His word is full of promises. He has promised that He would never leave you or forsake you. He has promised that He went to Heaven to prepare a place for you. He has promised that nobody can take you from Him. I asked earlier if there is anything more demoralizing than a broken promise. The only thing I can think of is the sorrow that we must bring God when we live, as if He never promised us anything. Is that how you live? You can change that. Start today and begin to read His word. As you do, journal all the promises you find that apply to yourself. You will be amazed. Then start to live as if they are true. You will be blessed!
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Father, thank You for giving me many great and precious promises. Please help me to believe them and live my life accordingly. In Jesus’ name.
AMEN
