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 39 from Numbers 35:34

Numbers 35:34 - "'You shall not defile the land in which you live, in the midst of which I dwell; for I the Lord am dwelling in the midst of the sons of Israel.'" -

This message can't get any clearer. Not only does God reside in the midst of His people, but He resides in their territory. This means He can shift the political structure of the land. He can place leaders and take them out. He can overcome corruption and wipe it out. He can bring prosperity to the land. He contends for the things that you contend for regarding His kingdom because He resides in you. He can break down the strongholds and gives you strength in the mean time to stand against them. He is with you, around you and in you!
