God Promises
God Promises are definitely for us to claim.
God's promises are always a commandment, then the results.
[ Joshua 1:8] Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.
What do we deserve to have a powerful God with us to be victorious?
The truth is God has offered us a
[Perfect Partnership].God offers us a new life, when our hands are stained with the blood of sin and wickedness. Doing things that God hates, loving what the world loves.Nevertheless, his promises never fails. Story:Two men by the name of Arnold and Jazz were best friends.They were poor, lived a small cottage in the hillside to find themselves struggling with bread and butter daily. One day, a merchant offered them a job, a decent pay for them both.They were excited, promised one another that the money they earned will be split 1/3 each , and the rest for Jazz's Grandmother living expenses, who apparently lived in west.
The first day of 2nd month, they finally claimed what'd they deserved after toiling under the hot sun for hours. The money was split accordingly, and the rest were with Jazz to be pass for living expenses.
Arnold was taking a leisure walk in the streets when he heard a familiar voice in the gambling den. He walked and peeped in. Discovered Jazz with a bulk of cash on his hand.
Arnold walked away immediately.
[
If you were Arnold, will you still split the money without any discontentment the next month accordingly? ]
Jesus was such a man. Without Regrets, he died for us knowing what awaits him. Probably he claimed God's promises as well. Let's thank God for what his promised us and from our lifes, claim what we deserve.
Lastly a reminder for all Racers in Cg08" Let's run this race with God's promises every moment. He never lies and he'll finish what he starts of with. Allow his promises to be our strength to drive us to further BreakThrough.In Cg08".
To end it of, let me share a few promises I've learnt
With our Fears, God promises us his Presence
With our Doubts, God promises us his Assurance
With our Weaknesses, God promises us with his Powers
Amen. -Josh
