Promises Of God


Lately The Promises Of God have came up a lot. This morning Encounter Meditation was called Promise keeper

Isaiah 25:1 The theme for this meditation from Isaiah 25 is promises made and promises kept.
  We can place our eternal trust in a God that is always faithful. Does Encounter help you trust God's faithfulness?  Please consider giving! Have you broken a promise to God? https://app.encounteringpeace.com/library/promise-keeper

Plus also this morning I wrote in my diary 6th July 2022 about this The title of John 14:15-26 is "Jesus Promises The Holy Spirit."

Then The Recovery Principle Devotional I really liked

LOVE

READ JOHN 14:15-26 Real love brings security into our lives.

For many of us, feelings of insecurity contribute to the power of our dependen cies. Believing that love can bring lasting security may be hard for those of us who have been abandoned. Maybe someone we loved betrayed our trust. Perhaps someone turned away from us when we betrayed theirs. It could be that some one we needed died, leaving us permanently.

Jesus promised, "No, I will not aban don you as orphans-I will come to you" (John 14:18). We may ask, How can lang trust in God's love when it feels like all I've ever known is love that disappoints? Here's the difference: Jesus is the only one who entered our lives through the mil "one way" door of death. "God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love-not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins" (1 John 4:9-10). The psalmist wrote, "For he knows how weak we are; he remembers we are only dust.... The wind blows, and we are gone... But the love of the LORD remains forever with those who fear him". (Psalm 103:14-17).

God's love is unconditional and always waiting for us. Turning our lives over to God involves opening the door of our hearts to his love. Filling up on God's love helps us to avoid relapses. It meets us at our deepest need and overcomes our most powerful insecurities.
