Living by God's promises allows us to walk
in the all-sufficient grace of God.

I am struck by this statement in its richness; a "selah" moment...
How many children's songs and hymns sing about the promises of God?
How often do we hold God to His promises?
We need to be "standing on His promises" and believe and walk in the truth
of God's word that every "promise of in His book is MINE!!!

If God's promises depend upon our performance, we will never walk in full assurance.

This is the same as archeology making a statement that it "has proven"
that the Word of God is true; archeology DOES NOT prove the word of God
anymore than our believing it to be true makes it so...
IT IS TRUTH; no matter what!!!
This is why we fail to walk in FULL ASSURANCE...
we must neither rely upon our performance to believe
or our ability to do what we believe is by faith
but we are to trust in Him who is able to
keep whatever and whomever is committed unto Him.
This is a "holy bit" to chew on and meditate on...
I really sense a very deep call to examine my life and pray that I be found faithful trusting in the One who has saved me and has given me everything
pertaining to life and godliness....
I have to ask...
are we REALLY trusting in His promises?
This is our holy calling...we are a priesthood of believers,
a witness to the world of trusting in God's promises;
walking in full assurance of faith without wavering
and receiving His grace that is sufficient for every need...
Hallelujah!!!
