The Promises of God (Page 2)
I Will Teach You the Way
Psalm 32:8-9 We consider the spiritual blessing of divine guidance. Paul tells us that in his own warfare, he didn’t fight as one beating the air – he knew precisely what to do and when to do it. He knew because He had direction from the Lord.
No Longer Strangers, but Citizens
Ephesians 2:19-22 Have you ever read about the great things the Lord did through His saints in history and wish you could have taken part in it? You can and you are. This is the same work, the same war, the same plan of God. Let this remind you for whom you’re fighting and
You Will Never Perish
John 10:28-29 We consider the gifts of preservation and perseverance – gifts of the Spirit that God bestows upon all His children.
We Have Access to the Father
Ephesians 2:18 The next in our series on the promises God makes to us if we believe: free access to Him. If you had not trusted in Jesus and received His adoption, you would be like everyone else in the world – standing on the outside looking in.
You Are Children of God
Romans 8:12-17 The Lord has promised to give you the Spirit of adoption if you are walking with Him in holiness from the heart.
How to Overcome Sin
Galatians 5:16-17 We consider our part in sanctification – what we need to do to cooperate with the Lord so that we will grow in our love, holiness, and spiritual strength.
Freedom from Sin
Romans 6:1-7 In this message, we examine another promised blessing of God to His children. If you are walking with the Lord in holiness, from the heart, He has not only freed you from the guilt of sin but has also freed you from its power.
Justified by Faith
Romans 4:1-8 God promises the spiritual blessing of justification to all His children. To understand this more fully, we consider three points: *First, what this justification is. *Second, the blessings justification brings, and *Third, how one is justified.
He Made You Alive
Ephesians 2:4-7 We consider three things regarding the blessing of resurrection from spiritual death to life.
Chosen in Eternity
Ephesians 1:3-6 Another of the promises of spiritual blessing that God has given to His children is that He chose them before the world began to be holy and blameless and predestines them to be made like Christ and adopted into His family.
Loved With an Everlasting Love
Jeremiah 31:3 If you are walking with the Lord from the heart, the Lord loved you before you ever trusted in Him, before you were born, before the world was made, even from all eternity. He has always loved you and He always will.
All Spiritual Blessings
Romans 8:28-30 Moving on from our earlier consideration of the physical blessings that true believers, who walk with the Lord, have in Jesus Christ, we begin to look at the far greater spiritual blessings that are also theirs in Him.
