Claiming Your Promises

Verse of the Month

“God is not a man; He will not lie.
God is not a human being; His decisions will not change.
If He says He will do something, then He will do it.
If He makes a promise, then He will do what He promised.”

Numbers 23:19 ERV

Claiming Your Promises

One day a woman was taking lunch out to her husband in the garage when she finally understood his problem not having a work bench for his projects.  Tools where scattered everywhere and the area was in total disarray.

Not long after, the wife purchased a rather nice sized work station for her husband.  Upon receiving the gift, he took it out to the shed and left it there thinking one day soon he would assemble it.

Months and years went by and the husband never used the gift he received from his loving wife.  Eventually it got ruined and went to waste.  If he had only taken the time to see all that was inside the package, his projects could have gone much smoother and without all the frustration.

Christians are much like that gentleman when it comes to claiming the promises of God that come with the gift of salvation.  We run to the verse in Philippians claiming God will provide all our needs, but don’t realize it doesn’t mean just material things.

"And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in

glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19 NKJV)

Take time to open the Bible and learn about what promises are given to you as a believer in Christ Jesus.  God has made promises to His children for so many things, we need to find out what they are.

Claim the promises of God right now for healing, strength, peace, direction and overall needs available to you.  Don’t let these gift promises go to waste when they are already in your possession through salvation. (cw)
