Psalm 119:105 (WEB) Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path. Promise #127: My Word will brighten your steps and light your path. Have you ever walked on a path in the forest in the middle of the night without a flashlight? If you have and there wasn’t a full moon shining, it is a pretty difficult thing to manuevre. Without a light to guide the way, you will inevitably go off the path and at the very least, bump into a tree. I believe the psalmist in today’s promise is saying the same...

Numbers 6:25 (WEB) Yahweh make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you. Promise #126: My face will shine upon you all the days of your life.

Then Jesus wraps up His conversation by declaring today’s Scripture...

Psalm 139:13 (WEB) For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. Promise #124: I gently formed you in your mother’s womb. The New International Version Bible says Psalm 139:13 this way… For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. (NIV) The New Living Translation says… You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb. (NLT) No matter what translation you prefer, this is a gentle picture of God’s loving creation process. You were not blasted into creation, but gently...

Psalm 37:18 (WEB) Yahweh knows the days of the perfect. Their inheritance shall be forever. Promise #123: All your days are known to Me and your inheritance is secure forever. In today’s Scripture verse, King David declares that all of the days of the upright are known to the Lord. In Psalm 139:16, David also says that each one of our days has been recorded in a special book before even one of them came to be. God knows us through and through and He loves us with all His heart. His eyes are upon those whom He loves and...
