Standing … Clinging … to His Promises

“…you whom I have upheld since you were conceived,

and have carried since your birth.

Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he,

I am he who will sustain you.

I have made you and I will carry you;

I will sustain you and I will rescue you.” Isaiah 46:3-4 (NIV)

This Scripture is on my wall, above my desk, next to my computer monitor. The words are ones that I stand on. Some days, I cling to them. Paul said that God’s promises are “Yes” and “Amen”. (2 Corinthians 1:20) That is the glue of my faith. God does not lie. God does what He says He will do.

There is a disconnect between what God says and what I understand. And so I spend more time with Jesus so as I learn Him so I will also learn about the Father. I press in with the Holy Spirit to gain understanding and wisdom.

What are the verses that you are standing on or clinging to today? Keep them close and allow them to simmer in your spirit. God bless you!
