He Keeps His Promises

Keith and I have recently begun teaching Sunday school together each week. It truly has been a blessing. I am so excited to see how God uses us in that ministry, together. This past weekend we were in Genesis 8-9 looking at how God "REMEMBERED" Noah and his family, and made a promise to them. I was so encouraged to be reminded of the reality that God remembers His people, His children; His remembering is much more than ours, it suggest an intimate and deep care and concern for the welfare and well being of the individual. This promise, seen in Genesis 9:11 " I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be destroyed by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth.”, got me thinking about the promises that God makes and keeps with His beloved children.

Scripture is replete with these promises. Here are just a few I wanted to share. My hope is that you would be blessed and encouraged and reminded of how much He cares intimately for you, if you are His child. I pray that as you reflect on the promises in Scripture that He has made, that you would be motivated to worship and praise Him. And the best part about the God we serve with regards to these promises is that we are ASSURED that He will keep them, fulfill them...forever!
