Theme For David Jeremiah Devotional 17th May – PROMISES KEPT
Blessed be the Lord, who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He promised. There has not failed one word of all His good promise, which He promised through His servant Moses.
1 Kings 8:56
Recommended Reading: 2 Peter 1:4
In golf, a do-over shot is called a mulligan. And the initial stroke doesn’t count on the scorecard. Oh, how we wish there were mulligans in life! Especially when it comes to broken promises—ones we made or ones that were made to us. Broken promises are painful and regrettable. We would give anything to make those promises come true.
One thing we never have to worry about with God is broken promises. The Bible is filled with testimonies of the dependability of His words to us. His words are true and eternal; they reflect His own character. After Solomon finished dedicating the temple in Jerusalem, he declared to the people that not one word of God’s promises had gone unfulfilled. God had established His people in their land as He promised He would. All of God’s “exceedingly great and precious promises” to us will be kept—every one (2 Peter 1:4).
Is there a promise of God to which you are clinging? Don’t let go. His Word is true and sure.
God promises to keep His people, and He will keep His promises. – C. H. Spurgeon
