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 56 Gen. 21:19

Gen. 21:19 - "Then God opened her eyes and she saw a well of water; and she went and filled the skin with water and gave the lad a drink." god opened Hagar's eyes, so she could see the blessing that was sitting right in front of her. That well was there the whole time but she couldn't see it because she was so focused on the desperateness of her situation; on her problems, Often times the solution and relief to our problems is right in front of us, we just need to shift our focus to the Lord and say, "Lord, where is the blessing in all of this?" He will open our eyes to see it. Where God is, blessings are, so we know they are there. Lord show us the blessings in our day today! Thank you!
