“God does not give us everything we want, but He does fulfill all His promises . . . leading us along the best and straightest paths to Himself.” — Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Daniel 9:4 NLT  I prayed to the LORD my God and confessed: “O Lord, you are a great and awesome God! You always fulfill your covenant and keep your promises of unfailing love to those who love you and obey your commands.

Oh, the promises of our God!  To love us, to keep us, to never leave us.  To protect our souls and to lead us to righteousness and glory that we cannot imagine.  To forgive our sins and to restore us to our rightful place with Him.

Matthew 5:2-12 records the Words of Christ, detailing the blessings and promises of God.  Note that he doesn’t mention worldly blessings that we desire, but those things that will not perish or be stolen. The things that God promises are not “man-made” but God given!

Only when we seek after the things of God, will we know true deliverance, freedom, contentment and love.

I pray that we seek and are satisfied with the blessings and promises of God.

Thank you Father for your love, your word and your promises.  May we never take them for granted and seek your face with all that we have and all that we are.  Continue to open our eyes and hearts to see and know you more today than yesterday.  We love you and thank you for all that you have done and plan to do for our lives.  In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
