GOD'S PROMISES
God Keeps His Promise
You may can recall some time in your life when God has spoken to you and He made you a promise. He told you something that would or would not come to pass (something that would come to pass because God was going to bless you or something that would not come to pass because GOD was protecting you) He shared some insight as to what was to come for you, or He gave you a peace be still in your spirit that you should not worry because He has everything in control and he guarded your mind to keep you from negative emotions and being fearful. Because he has given his children a spirit of peace and of sound mind.
We must also focus on Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Abraham’s Instructions:
When God gives you a promise you must understand there may come a testing time to see if you are going to be faithful to Him and deserving of the promise.
Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. God tests our faith in a not so difficult or difficult test or challenge or place or situation that forces people to change or make difficult decisions
1 Peter 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
“Substance”: Or assurance; The faith described here involves the most solid possible conviction, the God given present assurance of a future reality.
Hebrews 4:11 Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
When we decide to trust God our situation does not change but our attitude towards it does,then we can be at peace and we can rest and not have anxiety,fear and be stressed out. because fear tolerated is faith contaminated.
The sad thing, sometimes, is that some who start out with Jesus do not remain steadfast. When troubles come, they falter. Trials of this world have a way of separating those who truly belong to God, from those who are just pretenders. You can only damage yourself if you do not trust God,you will only be stressed out and wear yourself down.The peace of God is a gift but you must decide to believe God and labor into the rest.
Faith is believing what God said or promised will come into reality or something He said will be done.
Jesus told Thomas, blessed are those who did not see but believed,John 20:29
