Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep His promise. Hebrews 10:23 NLT.
Without an iota of doubt, each one of us has experienced disappointments from people who failed to keep their promises to us. On the other hand, we might have done the same to others. Although, it is often said that the ability to keep promises is a measure of one’s worth; sometimes it can be very challenging to keep one’s word. The reasons could be lack of complete understanding of the commitment , contingencies, changed desires, and difficulties at the point of execution. The list is simply endless.
Human’s lack of control over outcomes in life further buttresses the fact that we can renege on our promises to others. However, I want to remind you today of the ONLY ONE who has the ability to make and keep promises.
Every promise will be fulfilled
Using the scripture above, replace the word “Israel” with your own name. Let this be a reminder that the same promise keeper who fulfilled every promise to the Israelites is still the same God . He is able to fulfill yours as well. Like Abraham, be fully persuaded that God has the power to do what He has promised.
Are you wondering about the promises I am referring to here?. Well, I am referring to the billions of promises in the scripture – good health, favor, healing, protection, success, and whatever you are believing God for. If it is in the scripture, then it is for you, yes you! Do not allow past disappointments from people to cloud your judgment about the one who is able to keep promises.
Just like Jesus told Jairus when he got the news that his daughter was dead, while he was waiting for Jesus to come to his house and heal the sick daughter: Don’t yield to fear. All you need to do is to keep on believing. Mark 5:22-43 TPT.
Finally, I say to you today and to myself, do not yield to fear and despair. Keep on believing. God, the only promise keeper is able to fulfill every promise.
