How do we launch off into the awesomeness of The Glory of God – Our Creator.
Mind you! In God’s Image we are Created. Yet, no Man has ever ‘seen’ God! His Promises are to be claimed, recieved, claimed and lived, Amen.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
The Bible is simply jam-packed with promises made to us by God. When we start digging into the promises of God, we find that he promises us many things:
- God’s help and guidance,
- His faithfulness,
- our salvation,
- wisdom,
- peace, joy, and Love,
- riches in Heaven,
- adoption into His family,
- strength and power,
- God’s provision,
- eternal life,
- deliverance (from enemies, from danger, from temptation),
- healing,
- and renewal.

Knowing the promises of God can help us in our daily lives, to be able to navigate both big and small decisions, and to conquer fear, temptation, and danger.
Nehemiah was able to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem in 445BC because he knew the promises of God and was able to confidently claim those promises as his own.
Jesus, too, was able to defeat the devil during his 40 days of temptation in the desert because he knew the Scriptures.
When we know what God has promised us, we can confidently claim those things in our own lives.
In the book All the Promises of the Bible, the author Herbert Locklear found 7,147 promises from God to man in the Bible.
