Season 1, Episode 6: Intro to God's Promises
Manage episode 376736334 series 3373131
What does it mean to get a promise from God? Many of us have gone our whole lives without knowing for sure how to find or use a promise of God. Yet, there are over 700 of them throughout the Bible! It is certainly worth a conversation, because those promises can change your life.
A promise of God is as simple as it sounds. It’s a guarantee found in Scripture that God will do something. They’re valuable for our life because whenever we face problems and difficulties we can lean on those promises. We can know that God will uphold His end of the deal. Max Lucado says, “All are binding, for not only is God a promise maker; God is a promise keeper.”
Host, Josh Kave, shares how we can apply these promises in our lives. There are two authors that give metaphors for this application. However, both have very similar methods for how to use the Scripture. It boils down to four steps: Identify the problem, search the Scripture, circle the promises, and pray them. If you do these four steps, you can lean on those promises and trust that God is going to deliver on His end. When you trust in that, you can live in peace no matter the situation.
