2nd Corinthians 1:20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
We are living at a time in earth’s history when it will become even more important for us to trust in the mighty promises God has given us to live by. At such a time as this, when morale is low, when death and diseases have overspread the land, and when there is a stoical intransigence among political leaders the promises of God should be looming ever larger in our minds as we transition to living by faith alone.
As the passage above teaches us, all of the promises of God, in Christ Jesus are yes, and Amen; meaning, that God’s promises are certain, and can absolutely be depended upon, in those who believe and obey, according to the light and knowledge shed upon our pathway.
But what we need to understand is that there are factors which affect the fulfilment of the promises, and there are elements contained in them that are to be studied very carefully, so that our faith would not be shaken, if and when God’s promises may not always be fulfilled as some expect.
1st Peter 1:6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations. 7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
