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 50 from Exodus 20:5-6

Ex. 20:5-6 - "You shall not worship them (idols) or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep my commandments." - God is so jealous to have us for His own that He is willing to strip out the generational sins that have been attached to the people of today, so that nothing will prevent anyone from having freedom to be children of God. He loves those who love Him and pursues those who don't so that they too will come into a relationship with Him. He wants us all for Himself. His love is so great that He will leave no rock unturned to seek out the lost and claim them for Himself. No generational habits or curses, sickness' or diseases can keep people from experiencing all that God has for them. He is such a great, loving God!
