Promise-Keeper

Bible in a Year:

• Isaiah 1–2
• Galatians 5

After waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised.

Hebrews 6:15 Gripped by the gravity of the promises he was making to LaShonne, Jonathan found himself stumbling as he repeated his wedding vows. He thought, How can I make these promises and not believe they’re possible to keep? He made it through the ceremony, but the weight of his commitments remained. After the reception, Jonathan led his wife to the chapel where he prayed—for more than two hours—that God would help him keep his promise to love and care for LaShonne.

Jonathan’s wedding-day fears were based on the recognition of his human frailties. But God, who promised to bless the nations through Abraham’s offspring (Galatians 3:16), has no such limitations. To challenge his Jewish Christian audience to perseverance and patience to continue in their faith in Jesus, the writer of Hebrews recalled God’s promises to Abraham, the patriarch’s patient waiting, and the fulfillment of what had been promised (Hebrews 6:13–15). Abraham and Sarah’s status as senior citizens was no barrier to the fulfillment of God’s promise to give Abraham “many descendants” (v. 14).

Are you challenged to trust God despite being weak, frail, and human? Are you struggling to keep your commitments, to fulfill your pledges and vows? In 2 Corinthians 12:9, God promises to help us: “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” For more than thirty-six years God has helped Jonathan and LaShonne to remain committed to their vows. Why not trust Him to help you?

By:  Arthur Jackson Reflect & Pray

Why do we find God’s promises to help us difficult to embrace? What promises are you challenged to keep in this season of your life?

God, thank You for being faithful in Your commitments to me. Help me to be faithful in my commitments to You and others.

This tune by a nonexistent group--actually a bunch of studio musicians--nonetheless charted.

My World Fell Down--Sagittarius (1967)

I understand a "ONE HIT WONDER" has to break the top 40 to qualify. This one reached number 21:

Wherewolves of London -- Warren Zevon

This tune by a nonexistent group--actually a bunch of studio musicians--nonetheless charted.
