Matthew 6:6 (WEB) But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. Promise #352: If you pray to Me in secret, I will reward you openly. Jesus taught His disciples to pray a very special prayer beginning in Matthew 6:9 that we call the Lord’s Prayer. Many people know this very popular Christian prayer off by heart as I am sure that it is the most recited prayer of all time. Jesus is very clear...

Psalm 34:18 (WEB) Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Promise #351: I am very close to those who have a broken heart. King David knew a thing or two about heartache. Whether it was being overlooked by his father when he was a shepherd boy, being chased down by a murderous father-in-law or publicly exposed for his deadly secret sins. In the midst of his own personal pain and suffering, David discovered that God was very close and was always ready to save those with a contrite spirit....

Isaiah 26:3 (WEB) You will keep whoever’s mind is steadfast in perfect peace, because he trusts in you. Promise #350: You will have perfect peace if you keep focused on Me.

(NLT) I used to think that if I could fix all my thoughts on God in my mind, then I would have perfect peace. But the more I think of the whole verse, the more that I am convinced that I...

Psalm 62:2 (WEB) He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress— I will never be greatly shaken. Promise #349: I am your rock and your salvation, a fortress that cannot be shaken. God is the only unmoveable force in this universe that cannot be shaken. In a world where global economies can come crashing down on a moment’s notice, in a world where fragile peace treaties fail, it is comforting to know that our God is our only rock and our salvation. Psalm 62:1-2 in the New Living Translation says it this way… 1 I wait quietly before...

Psalm 32:7 KJV 7 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah. Promise #348: I will keep you safe from trouble for I am your hiding place. In today’s promise, we are reminded that God is our hiding place. He is a refuge for us when we need to be safe from trouble. I love how the Amplified Bible translates Psalm 32:7… You are a hiding place for me; You, Lord, preserve me from trouble, You surround me with songs and shouts of deliverance. Selah [pause, and...
