Devotional: Bankable Promises

ALL the promises of God, IN HIM are YES and AMEN. 2 Cor 1:20

[Resting] in the hope of eternal life, [life] which the ever truthful God Who cannot deceive promised before the world or the ages of time began. Titus 1:2 AMPC

God is not a man, that He should tell or act a lie, neither the son of man, that He should feel repentance or compunction [for what He has promised]. Has He said and shall He not do it? Or has He spoken and shall He not make it good? Numbers 23:19
---

God speaks, acts, and promises according to the constancy of His character and untainted, unclouded wisdom. He never says or does anything out of sudden impulse. His promises are never for bribing nor is He ever guilt motivated.

His promises are always made to deliver the truest and best intentions He has for His children. Because He is God and He is the One who made the promise, I know there is weight and sureness to His Words.

Today, I thank Him for the encouragement and assurance of His promises, of His Word.

Choose Gratitude!

Gratitude is how you deal with worry and anxiety. Gratitude helps you get over yourself. As Christians, we are called to practice gratitude every moment, not just when life is going smoothly but especially in the hard moments. Gratitude anchors our hearts to God’s faithfulness and reminds us that we are never alone.
