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 67 from Exodus 25:40

Ex. 25:40 - "'See that you make them after the pattern for them, which was shown to you on the mountain'." - God is giving Moses instruction of how the lampstand should be designed. Not only did He verbally describe how it should be made but He showed Moses the design, the pattern, so that it was clear to Moses what God wanted. God desires that we fully understand the details of what He wants us to do for Him. Not only that, He partners with us in setting up His work, He shows us His design for those things that belong in the kingdom. No matter what profession we have, where we are in life, whether be a stay-home mom, a student, unemployed, a child, a company CEO, a minister, God already has the design of what He is calling us into each day and He is waiting to show us. Maybe the design is in problem-solving relationships, maybe it's a project, or an assignment, maybe it's a change of job or location. He holds the blueprints of detail for those areas of life that we can't figure out, that causes us fear, frustration, worry. We need to meet with our Creator and allow Him to show us the blueprints in those areas. He is interested in the details of your life and of those things you do.
