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 94 from Exodus 39:21

Ex. 39:21 - "They bound the breast piece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a blue cord, so that it would be on the woven band of the ephod, and that the breast piece would not come loose from the ephod, just as the Lord had commanded Moses." - Chapter 39 gives the description of how the priests' garments are made. Ten times in this chapter the phrase "just as the Lord commanded" is used. God gave very specific details of how everything should be made. This is such a good example of how He is interested in the details of our lives. He cares about all that we care about. He cares about how we are designed and develop, about what we decorate ourselves with, what we attach ourselves to and He is careful to give us instructions as to how we should function, react and respond. He doesn't leave anything out. He loves us so much!
