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 25 from Deuteronomy 7:24

Deut. 7:24 - "'He will deliver their kings into your hand so that you will make their name perish from under heaven; no man will be able to stand before you until you have destroyed them.'"

Not only will God give us all we need to defeat our enemies, but He will take care of the authority of our enemies. He will defeat the power and authority of those who oppose Him and cause others to turn away from Him. Any leader who discourages their people from turning to God or from seeking Him will ultimately be removed from that power and destroyed. God is a jealous God. I think we should pray for that jealousy to manifest itself in greater measure over the nations of the this world. Then maybe the world will see more peace and righteousness.
