Some Good Promises

Lady of Light

In the book of Hebrews 13:5-8, we have a few wonderful promises of God:

"Let your conversation be without covetousness and be content with such things as ye have; for he hath said "Never will I leave thee or forsake thee." (v. 5) This promise from God that he will never leave us or forsake us is a great gift and certainly, it should allow us to be content with what we have and to have wholesome conversation without covetousness or envy. It puts everything in a true perspective.

"So that we may boldly say "The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man may do to me." (v. 6) We have all had experiences where people have said or done things that were unkind or inappropriate, but we can rest in the fact that God helps us and takes away our fear of things that man may do. That is the second great promise.

"Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation." (v. 7)

The third, is that God has provided spiritual leaders and other Christians to speak faith into your life and share the truth of the word of God.

"Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever." (v. 8)

This is the most wonderful promise, that we can rely on the Lord to ALWAYS be the same. In our world where people change and so many other things change, this is a true strength and comfort.

There are many more promises in the bible, but this section of Hebrews gives us a sample of the wonderful things of God.

God bless you and have a great day!
