Firm and solid foundations – Cementing God’s promises

God’s promises must be cemented in our hearts. When we cement God’s promises in our hearts, there isn’t any room inside it to allow the enemy to control, to take over, and to destroy. Today, I pray that we would be encouraged to regain our strength from the Lord because of His promises that He has given us.

We must not give up believing that His promises will come to pass. I am reminded of Abraham and Sarah. They took things into their own hands, because they didn’t believe that God would give them a child in their old age. I pray that the lives of Abraham and Sarah would be a source of encouragement to us today. We must cement God’s promises in our hearts and never let anyone, anything, rob us of His promises.

God’s promises to us are a source of strength. They are our strong pillars when we are down. They are a source of fuel when our flame grows faint. When the battles in life seem impossible, God’s promises become a mighty wall that protects. The enemy may destroy our homes, take away material things, but the promises from God can never be destroyed. Nothing and no one can ever take away what is rightfully ours, because it is from the Lord.

Do we know His promises? Our relationship with God is the most important thing in life. The basis to anything is Him. If we do not know what God’s promises are for our lives, means we do not know God. It is time we work on our relationship with God so that we will know His promises. What are we waiting for?

Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?
