MORE of the (Many) Promises of God – II

PROMISES

“God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?”
–Numbers 23:19

Some have counted over 100 promises of God which can be found in God’s Word.

Some have counted 150+ promises of God which can be found in God’s Word.

And there are some who have counted over 300 promises of God in God’s Word!

Several of what some call ‘promises’ are rather specious.  It is suspected some count the least little thing as a promise because they are looking for an impressive total number.

Because they are written in God’s Word, all can be assured of their TRUTH.  But these promises are to followers of God and His Son, Jesus Christ–NOT to those who disbelieve.

Regardless, ANOTHER twenty promises from God’s Word to those who follow, fear and love God.

“The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.”
–Psalm 34:7

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
–1JOHN 1:9

“And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.”
–Psalm 9:10

“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
–Romans 10:9-10

“For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.”
–Psalm 84:11

“In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”
–Proverbs 3:6

“For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory”
–2CORINTHIANS 4:17

“But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
–Philippians 4:19

“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”
–John 8:36

“For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.”
–1TIMOTHY 4:8

“Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.”
–Exodus 20:12

“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.”
–James 1:5

“Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.”
–Psalm 91:3

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”
–Jeremiah 29:13

“For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.”
–Psalm 86:5

“He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.”
–Revelation 3:5

“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.”
–Mark 11:24

“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”
–Galatians 6:9

“And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.”
–1THESSALONIANS 4:11-12

“And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.”
–Isaiah 58:11

So, there you have it: for the reader, ANOTHER twenty promises from God (as contained in God’s Word). These twenty are in addition to those twenty promises earlier recorded in the first part of this series.

And, because they are in God’s Word, they have the same effect as if they were carved in stone.

“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.”
–2CORINTHIANS 7:1

WHAT does the reader believe about the many promises of God?

HAS the reader experienced any of those promises being fulfilled?

It is not YET too late: there is still a LITTLE time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
