Matthew 17:19-20 (WEB) 19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, “Why weren’t we able to cast it out?” 20 He said to them,“Because of your unbelief. For most certainly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. Promise #164: Nothing will be impossible for those who have even a little faith. In this promise, Jesus tells us that even if our faith is as tiny as a mustard seed, we are...

James 1:17 (WEB) Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow. Promise #163: Every good gift that you receive comes directly from My hand. Just think of this promise for a moment. God is saying that anything good that you receive in your life comes directly from Him. That beautiful sunrise, the twinkle in a loved one’s eye, even that raise at work. All good gifts come from the one true Father. The Bible says that the sun shines on the just...

2 Corinthians 1:21-22 (WEB) 21 Now he who establishes us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God; 22 who also sealed us, and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts. Promise #162: I have anointed you with My Spirit as a down payment of what is yet to come. It is amazing to think that God gave us His own Holy Spirit to anoint us and to seal us with His very presence. The gift of His very own heart is but a down payment of what is yet to come! In 1 Corinthians...

Galatians 5:1 (WEB) Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don’t be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. Promise #161: You can enjoy freedom because Christ has set you free. This promise exhorts us to stand firm in the freedom in which Christ has set us free! This is not an option, it is a command. Another version of the Bible says that it is for the very sake of freedom that Christ has set us free. God loves it when we agree with Him and choose to live a life free...

Psalm 103:12 (WEB) As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us. Promise #160: I have removed your sins from you as far as the east is from the west. How far is the east from the west? Since these two anchors point in polar opposite directions for all eternity, I would say that there is no greater way to express the farthest distance than east from west. I love how God has used this analogy to illustrate the promise of what He has done with our sin. He has removed...
