The Daily Promise

Today's Promise: John 1:14 The Gospel of John opens with a description of Jesus as the Word of God. There are two promises in this verse. The first promise was that Jesus dwelt among us. He took on the form of man and lived with us. Because He walked among us, He understands all the struggles and problems you and I face. The second promise is about the uniqueness of Jesus. The Bible, and Jesus Him...

Today's Promise: Hebrews 10:23 Every promise of God is worth holding on to. When God makes a promise, you can be certain He will fulfill it. God's faithfulness is connected to His character. Because we know He is faithful, we can claim the promises He has made. As a believer, you can hold fast to His promise because you know God will fulfill it. The basis of your faith is that God will do what He...

Today's Promise: Philippians 4:11 The Apostle Paul mastered a word that seems so elusive in our world today.   So many people live with an attitude of "just a little bit more." They think if they can just have that new car, new house, new career, or even a new spouse, they would be happy. We live in a discontented world.   True contentment is not based on your situation or circumstance. True conte...

Today's Promise: 2 Chronicles 16:9 Imagine, the God of the universe searching the earth for people who He can support, bless, and strengthen. The only criteria is that their heart must be blameless before Him.   A blameless heart doesn't mean a perfect or sinless heart. A blameless heart is one that is completely yielded and trusting in God. As a committed Christian, God is looking for ways to sup...

The more you keep your spiritual ears open, and the more you obey what you hear, the more you...

Today's Promise: Hebrews 6:19-20 There is no doubt about it; at some point, you are going to face some rough seas.   There are times when you feel like you are about to sink. You feel pressured from every side and aren't sure what your next step should be. You feel like you are being pushed along by the currents of the storm. When the wind is blowing and the waves crash over your life, you can res...

Today's Promise: 1 Thessalonians 5:18 God calls you to a life of thankfulness. Taking a few moments every day to review the blessings God has poured out on our life can transform your outlook and your attitude.

Today's promise: Psalm 30:5 As a follower of Christ, you live in the favor of God. God's favor is His supernatural blessing and kindness toward you. The New Testament version of favor is "grace."   God pours out His favor on all His children. His favor provides for your every need. Every blessing of God is evidence of His favor.   You can't earn His favor; it is a gift of grace. One of the most am...

Today's Promise: Matthew 5:13 Jesus called and designed you to be salt in the earth. He didn't say you should be the salt, but through Him, you are the salt.   Today we look at four characteristics of a salty Christians. 1. Salt is Distinctive - Christ in you will never allow you to be like the world. 2. Salt Preserves - You preserve the world around you from sin and decay. 3. Salt Enhances - The...

Today's Promise: Ephesians 2:4-5 God is "rich" in mercy. God is more than a little merciful. The depth of his mercy goes beyond our understanding. If you are like me, I need all the mercy of God I can get. Through His mercy, He has made you and I alive in Christ. When you came to Christ, He paid your sin price and broke the power that sin had over you. The God that is rich in mercy also made you a...

Today's Promise: Psalm 119:14 Like so many things in the Christian walk, receiving joy from obeying God doesn't seem to make sense. The thought of obedience often brings images of restrictions, rules, and regulations.   The Psalmist says we can rejoice over obeying God the way a person rejoices over finding money, seeing their stocks go up, or discovering a hidden treasure.   Four Reasons you can...

Today's Promise: Isaiah 62:5 As the young groom watches his bride walk down the aisle, he is overcome with joy. God looks at you the same way. As part of His church, you are the bride of Christ. You are the focus of His attention. He waits in anticipation for you to be with Him throughout all eternity. Although God loves the world, He loves you individually, as well. He looks at you with that same...

Today's Promise: Romans 10:17 If you want to grow in your faith, you must spend time in God's Word. No other practice will help you grow in your faith, like reading and studying the Bible.

Find ways to apply what you read into your daily life....

Today's Promise: Romans 5:1 Peace. It's a hard thing to come by these days. From political uncertainty to the rise of depression and anxiety, it seems the entire world is suffering from a lack of peace.   The problem with peace is our sin. Sin puts us at odds with God. There is no peace with God as long as there is sin. You can face each day, knowing that you have peace with God.   If you are stru...

You don't have to live in guilt because God has forgiven your sin. He not only fo...

Today's Promise: Proverbs 15:8 So many Christians are reluctant to come to God in prayer. They feel unworthy to lift their voice, and they may think, "Surely God has more to do with His time than to listen to me pray." They don't realize that God actually delights in their prayer. Did you know that God loves it when you spend time in prayer? God delights in hearing you today. God wants you to come...

You don't have to have a special anointing or be a preacher to pray effectively. When you pray, things ha...

Abiding in Christ is resting in an active relationship with Jesus.   God is working in y...

Today's Promise: 1 John 2:1 When you became a Christian, Jesus forgave your sin and gave you His rightness before God. Although you may try to live a life of holiness and obedience, there are times when you fall into sin. Instead of feeling guilty and condemned for what you have done, remember Jesus is on your side. He stands between you and God the Father, and His blood forgives your sin. Jesus s...

As His follower, your dwelling place for all eternity is being perf...

Today's Promise: 2 Corinthians 5:18 You might notice the word "reconcile" in this promise. It not a word we use a lot. It means to bring together or to change thoroughly. God has reconciled us to Him. Through Jesus Christ, although we were once enemies, we are now friends of God.   Since you are a new creature and have the righteousness of Christ in you, God has called you to a ministry of reconci...
