While the world might say it promises
And may even give their word
Be mindful that they’re human
May not remember what you heard
But everything God promises
Each one of them is true
You can depend and even act upon
What His word has Promised you
How many times have we been let down by others who have made promises but in the end, broke them? And vice-versa? It is certainly not a good feeling. The things that we do, we tend to forget to fulfill those promises to other people but most importantly, we forget to fulfill those promises to God. Despite these inopportune acts, God’s promises are always set in stone. His promises are always a “Yes” and an “Amen!” We cannot be good enough to deserve God’s love. Yet, He still blesses us because our connections with Him are eternal. At the end of the day, He promises us peace and opportunity. Even when we break our promises with God and God keeps His promises with us, it is in that moment when we have to acknowledge and appreciate the unconditional consideration and love that He gives us. Isaiah 40: 31 states:
“But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint.”
Therefore, it is important to listen to God’s instructions. We have to believe in God’s promise because He will restore and reward us. In fact, His promises are a reward. We should not question God’s ability to give that to us. In times of need, when we are in trouble, that is usually the time when we ask for God’s promise. This is not the appropriate approach to take. We should not need to seek God when we are at our most vulnerable. God has to keep His word, which is why His promises are very important.
May God Bless You All.
