No, I will not break my covenant; I will not take back a single word I said. Psalm 89:34 (NLT)
There are three common faith questions that come up when we read a promise from God’s Word. First, we need to answer the question, “Is that promise for me?”
Yesterday we went over several scriptures that show why you qualify for every promise in the Bible.
Today we will cover the second question, “Does God keep His Word?”
God never goes back on His Word. Numbers 23:19 (NLT) says, God is not a man, so he does not lie. He is not human, so he does not change his mind.
If God said something, He’ll do it.
God’s words are timeless. Some would argue that miracles ended with the book of Acts, but God’s promises don’t have an expiration date. Jesus said, Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away (Mark 13:31, NKJV). Deuteronomy 7:9 (NKJV) says, therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments.
The Bible is God’s written will and testament to you. If you want to find out what you have inherited when someone passes away, you read their will. Similarly, if you want to find out what you inherit from God through Jesus, you read the Bible.
You can stand on every promise you find in the Bible because everyone is upheld by God’s Word…and He never goes back on His Word.
