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 42 Gen. 17:16

Gen. 17:16 - "I will bless her, and indeed I will give you a son by her. Then I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people will come from her." God is in the blessing business. He likes to throw unexpected surprises at us. He doesn't like us to get too settled into the predictable, that's too boring for Him. He loves to see that look of surprise on our faces, and our eyes light up when great things happen. He created us to laugh and smile, that's why we have so many muscles in our faces. Don't get too comfy in the mundane, wait with anticipation for the surprise, for the blessing.
