Today's Promise: Proverbs 2:6-7

We can all use a little wisdom, right? If you are like me, you look back at some of your past decisions and wonder what you were thinking. If there were a way to make better choices, we could live better lives.

God promises wisdom to those who seek Him. Wisdom is the ability to make good choices that bring about success.

When you seek wisdom from the Lord, He blesses you in two ways.

1. He gives wisdom to those who seek Him.

2. God's wisdom is a shield around you.

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

John 7:37-38 - Jesus Promised Living Water.

Zechariah 4:6 – Not by Might, but by the Spirit.

Psalm 23:4 – I Will Not Fear, for God is With Me.

Today’s Promise: Zechariah 4:6

When God gives you an assignment, He always provides everything you need to accomplish it. Is there something God has told you to do, but it seems like a mountain before you?

What is the mountain that you are facing today? Your power or strength won't move it. You won't conquer it with your best thinking or the world's wisdom.

It is not by your might nor by your power but by the Holy Spirit's power, strength, and leadership; you can fulfill all God has called you to be and do.

Today's Promise: John 7:37-38

Jesus promised living water to those who would come to Him. His living water satisfies your soul and refreshes your spirit. When you drink His living water, you never thirst again.

Jesus said this living water would bubble up from within and overflow to the world around you. It is a constant supply of satisfaction and renewal.

As a believer, the promise of Jesus is the living water of the Holy Spirit flowing from within you. He is a never-ending source of comfort, joy, refreshment, and power.

Today's Promise: Psalm 86:7

What do you do when you face a significant problem that rocks your world? No matter who you are, there are days of trouble. Sometimes you have caused them, and sometimes trouble just seems to appear at your doorstep.

You can respond in fear and worry. You can complain about your condition, or you can call on the Lord.

God promises that when you call on Him, He will answer and will never leave you to face your day of trouble alone.

Today’s Promise: Psalm 145:8

Here are four character qualities of God listed in this promise.

1. God is gracious. God’s grace is His love in action. Grace is getting what you don’t deserve.

2. God is merciful. Mercy is not getting what you deserve.

3. God is slow to anger. God always gives room for repentance. At times, His anger is poured out in righteous judgment, but only as a last resort.

4. God is great in lovingkindness. Lovingkindness is commitment love. It is God’s lovingkindness that releases His grace and mercy into your life.

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

Here are the promises we covered this week.

1 Kings 8:56 – God Will Always Keep His Promises.

Romans 8:31 – If God is for You, Who is Against You.

John 16:7 – Jesus Promised the Holy Spirit.

Hebrews 12:15 – My Bitterness is Removed.

James 1:5 – Ask God for Wisdom.

Today's Promise: James 1:5

There is a difference between knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge is all about the facts; wisdom is about what you do with the facts. Wisdom is about how you live and the choices you make.

Our world is drowning in knowledge. You can find the answer to almost any question or problem in the palm of your hand.

We know more, but are we living any better? Are we making better choices? Are we living wisely?

God's wisdom helps you understand the world around you so you can live successfully.

Today's Promise: Hebrews 12:15

You can't go through life without experiencing hurt or disappointment.

If you aren't careful, those hurts and disappointments can take hold in your heart. Unforgiveness always leads to bitterness.

You remove the root of bitterness through forgiveness.

As you show others the same grace and forgiveness Christ gives you, you will find those roots of bitterness wither and die.

It takes time, but as you release forgiveness through the grace of God, you will find new freedom, joy, and happiness.
