Promises

     The promises of God are everlasting. Each one of His promises will be fulfilled. The Bible is the only book that has predicted the future with 100 percent accuracy. It is amazing to see how Jesus came just at the moment predicted in the book of Daniel. Over 300 prophecies came to pass during the birth, life, death and resurrection of our Lord.

     The Bible is truth. It has been proven true scientifically, historically, and archeologically. Miraculous! Only our creator God could have inspired so many writers through the Holy Spirit to pen His words. Don’t take it lightly. And remember His promises include you.

     It’s all about faith. Faith in the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus. Faith that He is indeed Savior of the world and He promises us eternal life. When you believe, He gives a guarantee. You know that you know that you know that you are saved for eternity.  Listen to this Scripture

And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession-to the praise of His glory. Ephesians 1:13-14

     We are sealed forever when we believe. The Holy Spirit within us has marked us for eternity with a guarantee. That’s good enough for me. We can’t earn it. We can’t perform enough good works or believe traditions of men. Only faith through grace. That’s all we need.

For it is by grace you have been saved through faith-and this is not from yourselves. It is a gift from God-not by works so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:8-10

     We cannot boast about becoming children of God or about the things God has planned for us to do. Jesus came here freely and died and rose for us! And the works He has planned for us are personal and were prepared for us before the beginning of time! Relax into His love and His gift of eternity and wait and see what He will do next. His promises were made for you.

Lord,

Your plans for us begin with our faith in Your promises. They are eternal and we praise You for the gospel of our salvation. We believe.

In Jesus name,

Amen
