Yes and Amen!

For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen,
unto the glory of God by us.   (2 Corinthians 1:20)

What promise of God is your heart needing today?  Life has a way of presenting heartbreaking questions, overwhelming situations and seemingly insurmountable obstacles but God will provide a way to not only endure but to experience victory.  God has a promise that will speak to every need of your heart...and His promises are a 'done deal.'  Absolute, unwavering potential is a capstone truth for Christian living.  Victory, power, joy unquenchable, eternal blessing...in Christ, it is YES!   There is no problem, no life situation, no dilemma that is not spoken to in the Word of God.  Abundant living, eternality today, is a truth we can live.

There is a purpose for the certainty encased in God's promises.  God's guarantee enables us to embrace the privilege of unveiling God's glory in our life that others might see and long for Him too.  Can you glimpse what it is like to unveil God's glory?  It is not an endeavor designed to build up His ego; it is a journey designed for a lifetime which will open the doors of eternity!  All God is...absolute love, power, goodness, timeless...becomes ours to seek, to welcome into our lives and to share with others.  Our purpose in life is such a glorious one:  to unveil the greatness of God in the minute details of every day!  It is a purpose that can not be fulfilled without relying on the promises that are found in Jesus Christ. 

Simply reading your Bible daily will open your heart to promises that will meet you in the most incredible ways.  God's Word is living and active.  If you desire a more directed look into God's promises, you can use a ready-made list of promises.  (There are several books or if you email me, I'll send you a page from one of my favorite websites.)  When using others' compiled lists, though, be sure to delve deeply into the scripture.  Read the surrounding passage; understand the context of the promise and ask God to reveal it in your day's happenings. 

The 'let it be' of God's promises is spoken by us for His glory--and only in the name of Jesus.  He is faithful to His promises.  God will meet us in ways perfect for us...and reveal Himself in ways we can understand.   We then take that precious revelation and share it with others who need to see Him.  Embrace the purpose and privilege God has given...live with confidence in Him!
