Promises of God, Part 3

Yesterday I shared a few of the promises that we find contained in the Bible.  Christians are blessed to be able to build their lives on the solid and sturdy foundation of the Word of God.  We can not only read about the faithfulness of God but we can testify to the faithfulness of God in our everyday life experiences.  We can rejoice in the fact that we are never alone for any moment of our day.  This gives us confidence that we can face whatever trial or struggle that comes to us and against us.  Each believer understands that the enemy will seek to hinder our faith and confidence in God yet we know that God is fighting for us and not against us. 

The Bible is packed full of many promises just like those that we read in yesterday's post. However, the enemy, Satan, tells us that we are worthless losers with little to no power to live in victory. He tells us we are but “grasshoppers” in the face of our difficulties and struggles. So, which report are we going to believe?  Always remember that the enemy seeks to downgrade your opinion about yourself as well as make you doubt your ability to trust and obey God.  But Jesus declared that satan in a "liar" and his lies seek to defeat us but the Grace of God seeks to strengthen  us in all ways and in all situations.  We are "more than conquerors" through Christ who gave His life for us.  We can walk in the strength of His love and grace today!!!
