Ephesians 1:3 (WEB) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ; Promise #70: I have blessed you in Christ with every heavenly blessing. I had the personal privilege of receiving my earthly father’s blessing before he died. It was a real honor for me to receive such a blessing from my own dad and I am keenly aware that many people have not shared the same experience with their own earthly fathers. Some may have even felt cheated out of their father’s blessing...

Romans 8:11 (WEB) But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you. Promise #69: The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead will also give life to you. It is amazing to me to think that the very same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you and me. Our bodies are not a dwelling place for a small measure of the Spirit’s presence, but we...

Colossians 3:3 (WEB) For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. Promise #68: Your old life is dead and your new life is hid with Christ in Me. The reality for everyone who has received the free gift of eternal life is that their old life is passed away and everything has become new in Christ. To better appreciate today’s promise, I think we should read Colossians 3:1-3 from the English Standard Version… 1If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of...

Ephesians 2:13 (WEB) But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off are made near in the blood of Christ. Promise #67: I have brought you close through the blood of Christ. The book of Ephesians is one of my favorite books in the Bible. In chapter 2, the Apostle Paul reminds us how we have been made alive in Christ. I love the fact that he speaks of our old life in the past tense, telling us that we are now alive in Christ. In today’s promise found in Ephesians 2:13, we read that those who were...

Matthew 11:25-26 (WEB) 25 At that time, Jesus answered, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants. 26 Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight. Promise #66: I delight to reveal My kingdom to those with a childlike heart. In today’s promise, we read how Jesus delightfully declares that the mysteries of the kingdom are actually hidden from the wise and prudent and revealed to little children. I especially like how the Amplified Bible translates this passage of Scripture… Matthew 11:25-26…...
