DAILY?READINGS: 1 Kings 18; Jeremiah 30; Hebrews 1
For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven. Psalm 119:89
It’s encouraging to read in God’s Word of past promises kept by our Lord. We are thankful for them and also for the many promises that we may claim today so that we may live fruitful, holy and joyful lives. However we can equally thank God for His promises that we have yet to realize. Our eternal God is not bound by time and from His vantage point all His promises are already completed. He has said it and it is done. —George Ferrier
Standing on the promises that cannot fail,
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,
By the living Word of God I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.
—R. Kelso Carter
