GREAT PROMISES


April 24, 2013


One thing about our God is that He is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? (Num 23:19) Psa 138:2 says “for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.”

In the word of God are great promises that as believers we are not permitted to be molested or ridiculed by anyone anytime.  In the book of Acts 28, Apostle Paul was bitten by a viper, but because Jesus Has already said “They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them” great Apostle felt no harm and just shook off the beast. When the people around him saw that the snake bite was nothing, they tagged Paul a “god”.

Friends, if there is anything worth storing in our memories, then that has to be the promises of God for us as believers, which we can dig up from the word of God. Joshua 1:8 says “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.”

The amount of the word of God inside of you determines the extent to which the world will answer to you.

I used to be a boil patient. It was so terrible that it was a monthly thing and it would surface in places that are not nice; in my ears or in my nose. The pain was always unbearable until one day I stumbled upon a verse that says “I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.” (Exo 15:26) and I remembered clearly that boil was one of the plagues that the Lord inflicted upon the Egyptians, so I claimed my healing and that was the end of the boil thing.

Whatever it is you need has been catered for by the word of God already. It is left for you to dig and claim. May the Lord open your eyes to behold wondrous things out of His word in Jesus Name. Amen!
