The Daily Promise

Today's Promise: Judges 6:12

When God looks at you, He sees more in you than you see in yourself. You may be full of fear and worry, but God sees you as a mighty, valiant warrior.

You see yourself through your physical eyes. You see all the flaws and imperfections. You also see your history, failures, and what others have told you. God sees you for who you really are and who you can be through Him.

The question is, will you believe what you say and think of yourself, or what God sees in you?

Today's Promise: Ephesians 2:5-6

You may not feel like it, but right now, you are seated in heavenly places with Christ.

Your physical location may be here on earth, but your spiritual position is with Christ.

When you placed your faith in Christ, you were united with Him. When He died, you died. When God raised Him from the grave, you received new life in Him.

Now you are seated with Him at the right hand of God.

Because you are seated with Him, your primary world is not here but in heaven. You live in the accomplished work of Christ.

Today's Promise: Psalm 62:1

When you wait on God, you find He is your salvation and provider of all you need.

King David wrote this psalm during a particularly difficult time in his life. He was facing constant attacks from his son, who was trying to overthrow his rule as king. Instead of gathering his army and advisors, the first thing he did was go to the Lord. David understood that trusting in men was foolish. It was not about his strength or wisdom but about God's deliverance.

David had a quiet confidence that God would see him through any difficulty.

Today's Promise: Psalm 32:7

You have a hiding place, a place of refuge when problems and troubles come your way. That place of refuge is personal to you. God is not a hiding place, but your hiding place.

When stress overwhelms you and the enemy is attacking from all sides, you can run to your hiding place.

Your hiding place is not a location but a person. God is your hiding place. He covers you on all sides and protects you from the enemy's attack.

Saturday is review day on The Daily Promise. Every Saturday, we review the promises of the week so we can allow them to go deep into our hearts and lives.

Here are the promises we covered this week.

Matthew 21:22 – Pray in Faith, and the Lord Will Answer.

Psalm 145:9 - God is Good and Merciful.

Hebrews 13:20-21 - God Equips and Empowers You.

Jeremiah 1:5 - I Already Knew You Before You Were Born.

Colossians 1:21-22 – Jesus Made You Holy Before God.

Today's Promise: Jeremiah 1:5

God knows you. He knows all about you. In fact, there is nothing hidden from Him. He knows the good, the bad, and everything in between.

Before you ever took your first breath, God knew you. He knew how tall or short you would be, the color of your eyes, hair, and skin, plus a thousand other details. You are not a genetic accident; you were created by God the Father.

He not only knew you, but He formed you for His purpose.

He made you for His purpose and called you to fulfill that purpose in Him.

Today's promise: Colossians 1:21-22

As a new creation, Jesus presents you to God without sin or accusation.

God didn't wait for you to clean up your act before He began His work of salvation.

This promise describes three ways Christ presents you to God.

1. He presents you holy.

2. He presents you as faultless.

3. He presents you blameless.

You are not the person you used to be. God has removed your past and forgiven your sin. Jesus presents you holy, faultless, and blameless before God.

Today's Promise: Hebrews 13:20-21

God has already qualified, empowered, and equipped you to walk in obedience to Him and serve Him with faithfulness and power.

Whatever God calls you to today, He has already equipped you to handle it. God never commands you to do something that He doesn't empower you to accomplish. When I was a boy, our pastor used to say, "God doesn't call the qualified; He qualifies the called."

No matter what you may face today, you can accomplish all God has for you because He has already equipped you. You have all you need for victory and obedience.

Today's Promise: Psalm 145:9

God is good. Goodness is part of His character. Goodness is at the heart of all He is. He is not just mighty, not just powerful, not just eternal; He is good.

Because God is good, He does good.

God's goodness sent His only Son into this world. It was His goodness that brought about your salvation.

God pours out his goodness on all of His creation. His goodness blessed those who love Him and those who hate Him. He offers His mercy to all who will come to Him.

Today's Promise: Matthew 21:22

God loves answering His children's prayers. However, there is a condition to this promise on prayer. Your prayer must accompany your prayer with faith.

Praying in faith can move mountains; praying without faith is a waste of time.

Many people pray, but they don't really believe God will answer their prayers.

Because they are just going through the motions, they never see the results of their prayer. Prayer without faith is simply talking to yourself.

Praying in faith makes your prayer life more dynamic as you see more and more of your prayers answered.
