2 Corinthians 1:20 (WEB)
For however many are the promises of God, in him is the “Yes.”
Therefore also through him is the “Amen”, to the glory of God through us.
Therefore also through him is the “Amen”, to the glory of God through us.
Every four years we have an extra day in the year where we can declare yet another one of God's many promises. I especially appreciate today's Scripture verse where the Apostle Paul writes that every promise is yes and Amen in Christ!
So if you have ever struggled to feel worthy enough to believe that God's promises are for you, be encouraged my friend. The reality of the gospel is that it is not about you and it is not about me. It is not about our ability to be good enough and it is not about our ability to prove our value to God.
It has always been, and will always be, about Jesus Christ and Him crucified! 1 Corinthians 1:18 says... For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are saved it is the power of God. (WEB) The good news of the gospel is that Jesus exchanged His divine life for our broken lives so that all of the promises that are in Him are now applicable to us too.
My prayer is that faith will rise up in your heart whenever you read a Bible promise so that you can receive it as your very own because the First Born among many brothers (Romans 8:29) has secured for you a portion of His very own inheritance.
May today's promise set your heart at rest and energize you in the core of your being so you can shout from the housetops that every promise that your Father has given is Yes & Amen in Christ!
