Promises

Recently I was looking back at my old sermon notes and a noticed in March I had boxed a sentence that said

"Do not think God will give you more than his promises, but trust him to give you his promises"

This made me want to write out some of the promises I am trusting God for...in no particular order
  • That he who began a good work in me will carry it on the completion until the day of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:6)
  • He will never leave me nor forsake me (Joshua 1:5)
  • He will go before me (Deuteronomy 31:8)
  • He will crush Satan (Genesis 3:15)
  • Receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit (Act 2:39)
  • The pure in heart will see God (Matt 5:8)
  • There is an inheritance not through the law, but through grace according to the promise given to Abraham (Galatians 3:18)
  • Hope of eternal life (Titus 1:2)
  • The man who preseveres under trial will reiceve the crown of life (James 1:12)
  • The man whose sin the Lord will never count against him is blessed (Romans 4:8)
  • That Jesus was delivered over for my sins and was raised to life for my justification (Romans 4:25)
  • God works for my own good according to his purpose (Romans 8:28)
  • If my hope is in the Lord I can never be put to shame (Psalm 25:3)
  • For the Lord knows the plans he has for me, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give me a future and a hope (Joshua 1:9)
  • He will sustains all things by his powerful word (Hebrews 1:3)

These are some of the promises I will trust in, NOT wealth, health and prosperity.
