There are over 7000 Promises in the Bible!
Jesus said:


John 6:63  It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

This is what makes the
Bible different than any other Book!


The book is ALIVE!


Every word is loaded with POWER!


What are the promises for?

2Pe 1:3  According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
2Pe 1:4  Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.


The promises are for every thing that pertains to LIFE and GOD!
The power to live life the way GOD intended!

There are many listed in catagories on this website!


Heb 6:12  That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

The Greek word for followers is imitators.

In the Bible are many examples of men and women who against all odds stood on Gods promises and received, freedom, health, victory, deliverence.

Read Hebrews  Chapter 11.

Heb 11:33  who through faith overcame kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
Heb 11:34  quenched the power of fire, escaped the mouths of the sword, acquired power from weakness, became strong in war; made armies of foreigners to yield.


If you have received Christ, you have been given promises.

Search for them like Gold!

Psa 119:162  I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.

Receive them!
Stand on them!
You will not be disappointed!


Here's a couple!

Psa 37:3  Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
Psa 37:4  Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Psa 37:5  Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.


It's your part trust, delight,and commit,
God will do His Part!


Here are Hundreds in many catagories.
Happy searching!

Hear The Music!!!!!

The things of God can seem foolish to people who never experienced Him.

1Co 2:14  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

This scripture reminds me of something someone once said.
"Those who dance are considered insane by those who cannot hear the music."
I went to a wedding reception once were they did the "chicken dance".   With or with out hearing the music it was definitely "foolish" looking, but those who joined in flapping their wings and clucking, and prancing around, were definitely having a great time!!

The things of God go against "conventional wisdom", for instance:

To get, we must give!
To be exalted, we humble our selves.
To live, we die to ourselves.
Love you enemies.
If you want to be great, be a servant of all.
Do good to those who hate you.
The first will be last, and the last first.
Be thankful in all things.

Paul states this next!

1Co 1:25  Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men;

also:

1Co 1:27  But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;


Unless you can "Hear the music" the Gospel will seem foolish.


1Co 3:19  For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God...

 
The King was born in a stable,
The King rode in on a Donkey,
The King died naked on the cross,
Foolishness to the "wise",
Hidden from the "noble",

The King Rose from the dead,
The King shall return on a White Horse,
The King of Kings! Clothed in white,
The King will Create a new Heaven and Earth,
The King will Rule forever with those who receive Him.


"Hear the music", follow Him.

He Heard You!

2/8/2015

1 Comment

 
God heard you when you prayed.
The prayer did not go unheard or unnoticed!
You may have forgotten , but God wrote it in a book!
Every thought you have of Him it is recorded!

Mal 3:16  Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.

He even Heard you BEFORE you prayed!


Isa 65:24  And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

Psa 145:18  The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
Psa 145:19  He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.


Settle it.
God hears you.
Trust Him and you will not be disappointed!
Its not complicated.

David said it like this.

Psa 18:6  In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears.
 

David had this testimony!

Psa 34:6  This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

Wow that could be you!
Right?

Psa 34:17  The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
(note)
The Blood of Jesus makes you righteous, not your works.
2Co 5:21  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

This promise is for you!

 Not only did He hear you, but will answer!

Isa 58:9  Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. ..

and

Psa 91:15  He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

According to His will,

1Jn 5:14  And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
1Jn 5:15  And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

The will of God is found in His promises!


Find the promises, you have found His will.

Start digging. There are thousands!
Probably hundreds that concern you now!
Thousands , listed on this website!

The 7 Greatest Promises  Ever!!!!

2/1/2015

0 Comments

 
2Cor 6:16  And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
2Cor 6:17  Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
2Co 6:18  And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.



  1. I will dwell in them,
  2. I will walk in them;
  3. I will be their God,
  4. They shall be my people.
  5. I will receive you.
  6. I will be a Father unto you,
  7. You shall be my sons and daughters

Verse 17 is your part.

I agree with David,

Psa 8:3  When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
Psa 8:4  What is man, that thou art mindful of him?

Life Changed for ever!!!!

Receive These Promises Today!
They are yours!


Promises where God will dwell and walk with you!
Now!
Today!!


Of the thousands of promises, this is the main course.

Think on these.

The next verse Tells us what to do.

2Co 7:1  Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

The Fear of God =
Giving God proper respect and honor for who He is.

Heb 12:1  Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,


Php 3:13  Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
Php 3:14  I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Get ready to experience a walk with God!
Draw nigh to God he will draw nigh to you. (James 4:8)

5 Great Promises For Your children!!!

1/25/2015

1 Comment

 
God created family!

He has gave many powerful promises concerning our children!

Here are 5,

Number 1:

Jer 32:38  And they shall be my people, and I will be their God:
Jer 32:39  And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:
Jer 32:40  And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.

Of course the word "fear" in this sense, is not to be afraid, but, to reverence God. Proper respect to God for who He is!

He is a "family God".


The God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob,who were father, son, grandson!

Yes your children have "freewill". Yet God knows how to bring them in.
The devil blinds, but  God can open your childrens eyes.
Stand on the promises!

Number 2:

Isa 59:21  As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.

This is a good one for grandchildren too!

Number 3:


Act 2:38  Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Act 2:39  For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.



Number 4:

Isa 44:3  For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:
Isa 44:4  And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.


Not only will he save them, He will bless them!!!

Number 5:

Psa 112:2  His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

Gods Tattoo

God has you in His thoughts and mind!
You are tattoo'd permanently His Hands!
His hands! The most obvious spot to be remembered.


Isa 49:15  Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
Isa 49:16  Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands


We can also measure intimacy on how often a person thinks and cares for another.


Psa 139:17  How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
Psa 139:18  If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

Some one figured it out! (aproximately) 700,500,000,000,000,000,000 grains of sand on earth
(or seven quintillion five quadrillion) in the worlds beaches, not including the sand in deserts, or childrens play boxes!


He knows us inside and out!

Psa 139:1  A Psalm of David. O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.
Psa 139:2  Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.
Psa 139:3  Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.
Psa 139:4  For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether.


Yet His thoughts towards us are good thoughts!

Jer 29:11  For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.


Protected!

Rom 8:38  For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Rom 8:39  Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.


Everlasting!

John 13:1  Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

No Matter our condition!



Psa 40:17  But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer;


He loved us when we didn't care two red cents for him.

Rom 5:8  But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Eph 2:4  But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Eph 2:5  Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)


We can and should return the same to Him!


1Jn 4:19  We love him, because he first loved us.


Pay it forward to others!


1Jn 4:11  Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
1Jn 3:11  For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
John 15:12  This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.



Isa 49:16  Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands
