His Promises

Psalm 145:13b-14

The Lord always keeps his promises; he is gracious in all he does. The Lord helps the fallen and lifts those bent beneath their loads.

What is a promise? A promise is an expectation of something favorable to come. So when the Lord promises us something, he will always keep his word. From time to time we make promises we can’t keep. Thank God today that he never breaks his promises.

The scripture tells us that God will help the fallen and lifts those bent beneath their loads. How many of you are carrying a load too much to bear? How do you deal with the stress of your responsibilities in life? When we turn to Jesus and ask him for help, the scripture says that he will help us. We think if we ask something from God he will answer our prayers immediately. When it doesn’t happen like we want it to, we get frustrated.

Sometimes God waits to answer our prayers. Not because he doesn’t care, but because he wants you to have the best result. Giving up would be the easy way out. We need to rely completely on God with our problems. The Bible says to cast your cares and burdens on the Lord and he will give you comfort and rest. God wants to give you comfort and rest today.

The Lord will never break his promises to us. So whatever it is you’re struggling with today, claim that the Lord will pull you through it. He will be faithful and gracious to you when you do.
