Matthew 5:48 (WEB) Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect. Promise #342: I am the perfect Father. In the Old Testament, God was revealed through over 300 different names (ie Jehovah, El Shaddai, Adonai, etc.) but in the New Testament, Jesus reveals God through one name, and that name is ‘Father’. God is all about being a Father. Father is who He is. God is referred to as Father in every book of the New Testament except for one. I believe the summary of New Testament revelation can be found in one Bible verse...

Isaiah 40:11 (WEB) He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom. He will gently lead those who have their young. Promise #340: As a shepherd carries a lamb, I have carried you close to My heart. In yesterday’s promise, we talked about the benefit of having a loving Shepherd lead us and guide us. Today we want to continue that thought with an amazing illustration of God’s love that comes from Isaiah 40:11. In this passage of Scripture, we see a very intimate picture of how...

Psalm 100:3 (WEB) Know that Yahweh, he is God. It is he who has made us, and we are his. We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Promise #339: I am your God and you are the sheep of My pasture. In today’s promise, we are reminded that we are God’s people, the sheep of His pasture. There are many references to us being sheep in the Bible. Jesus said in John 10:27 that His sheep hear His voice and will not follow a stranger. In Psalm 23 we read one of the most celebrated passages that...

Psalm 139:14 (WEB) I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well. Promise #338: You are fearfully and wonderfully made. In yesterday’s promise, we talked about how God uniquely created each one of us with His own hands. I ended my devotional with the Scripture that inspired today’s promise. This is a declaration from King David that he was the handywork of the living God and that he was fearfully and wonderfully made. Can you say the same thing about your life? Can you look in...

Psalm 119:73 (WEB) Your hands have made me and formed me. Give me understanding, that I may learn your commandments. Promise #337: I created you with My own hands. In today’s promise, the psalmist declares that God’s own hands created him. What a glorious thought! It makes me think of the tender creation process when our God and Father formed Adam out of the dust of the earth. If God did indeed create each one of us the same way, then God must see each one of us as His work of art! In Ephesians 2:10, the KJV Bible says…...
