In Search of God's Promises

What is the one thing we do when we feel out of control in a situation? We grasp onto something stable, something we can lean on, something that will hold us up. When the ground is shifting we want something solid to stand on. This is a journey through the Bible in search of God's promises for us today. Let's look together to see how many "boulders" He has in His quarry for us to stand on! "It is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are regarded as descendants." Rom. 9:8

Promise 4 Gen. 1:28

Gen. 1:28 - "God blessed them: and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it." As soon as God created man and woman, He blessed them so that hey can multiply. It was God's intention that couples give birth to babies. It was His intention that couples be man and wife and it was His intention that men and women be together, not single. I really belive that it is a sin of our society that we have so many singles, especially singles in ministry, it just should not be so. It is also a sin of our society that we accept homosexual lifestyles and it is also because of the sin of man, meaning the fall of Adam and Eve, that brought barrenness to couples. But we can pray that God restore His intentions in ourselves and in our land. We must pray that God's will be done on earth as it is in Heaven, and because of His love for us, He will delight in bringing that restoration. That is His promise to us!
