THE PROMISE KEEPER!

Romans 4:21 TLB

He was completely sure that God was well able to do anything he promised.

 

God is the promise keeper; He delivers on all His word always. He never goes back on His promises neither does He fail nor change His mind according to Numbers 23:19 but He still requires our participation in our successes, prosperity and development. With over 3000 promises God made in the Bible, He instructed us to ask for whatever we need and promises to answer us when we do ask according to Luke 11:9.

God our Father wants to prosper, bless, keep us healthy, and safe, provide for us and do much more than our natural earthly fathers could ever do for us. Deuteronomy 28 tells us all about what God wants and doesn’t want for us, but the list is inexhaustive.

David was a man who knew how to not only praise God but also knew how to expect and receive from Him.

When he wrote psalms 37, he was probably coming out of a stressful, difficult, and challenging period, but instead of focusing on the problems as a lot us do, he focused on his maker. Colossians 3:2 says to set our eyes on the things above which is where our salvation and help is.

As earlier mentioned, the bible is packed full of God’s promises to us individually and generally and Psalm 37 alone holds twenty-five of these promises from God to us:

1. we will dwell in the land in verses 3 and 29

2. we will be fed in verse 3

3. He will give us the desires of our hearts  in verse 4

4. He will bring things to pass in verse 5.

5. He will bring righteousness to light in verse 6

6. He will bring judgement

7. Evildoers will be cut off in verses 9,20,22,34,38

8. He will give us the earth as an inheritance in verses 9,11,22,29,34

9. He will give us an abundance of peace in verse 11

10. He will uphold us in verses 17, 24

11. He will grant us an eternal inheritance

12. We will not be ashamed of evil things

13. He will satisfy us in times of famine in verse 29

14. You will not be cast down or fall

15. He will not forsake us in verse 28

16. He will preserve us forever

17. He will cut off the seed of the wicked

18. He will not allow our steps to slide in verse 31

19. He will not give us over to the wicked in verse 33

20. He will not condemn us

21. We will have peace in verse 37

22. He will give us salvation in verses 39-40

23. We will have the strength for every battle

24. He is our helper in verse 40

25. We’ll be delivered from the wicked.

God promised all of these from only one chapter of a book of the Bible, and much more from Genesis to Revelations, what other promises have you picked and held onto? Has God ever failed you? Has He ever broken a promise to you?

Numbers 23:19 tells us that God does not LIE about ANYTHING.

It is very telling that Joshua and the children of Israel were able to confidently boast of God’s ability to keep His promises in Joshua 21:45 saying, “Every good thing the Lord had promised them came true”. These people didn’t have the Holy Spirit, how much more you, a child of the new covenant in Christ. God will keep that promise, hold on to it, for they are sure according to 2 Corinthians 1:20.

The promise keeper keeps His promises.

PRAYER: Thank you, Lord for your promises, I know you never lie or fail. Help me to trustingly hold on to your promises to me through Christ Jesus. Amen.
