It’s Getting Ready To Happen
It’s Getting Ready To Happen
Hebrews
For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater by whom to swear, he swore by himself, saying, “Surely I will bless you and multiply you.” And thus Abraham, having patiently waited, obtained the promise. For people swear by something greater than themselves, and in all their disputes an oath is final for confirmation. So when God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable character of his purpose, he guaranteed it with an oath, so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us.
Promise: a declaration that something will or will not be done, given by one.
It’s hard to trust in a promise, when a promise has been broken before -
I promise, I’ll be there to watch you play in the big game! But never show up.
I promise, I’ll pay you back the money I owe you! But they never pay back.
I promise, I’ll never lie to you again! But even the promise was another lie.
I promise, I’ll leave the streets alone and change my life! But you know thats not true.
Baby I promise, if you’ll give me one more chance! But you know that he told you that before.
God if you get me out of this, I promise I won’t do it again!
We believe people based on their promises.
When a person makes a promises, My generations says… “Put that on something.” - “Man I swear to God” “On my momma”
We put faith in a persons word, that they will come through.
The Bible is so full of God’s promises, that it is not really possible to count them. Some people have tried and come up with about 3000. Others have counted 7000. Herbert Lockyer wrote a book called All the promises of the Bible and claims to list 8000.
First promise of the Bible:
, "And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel."
Very Important to note - The Bible has general promises and the Bible has specific promises to certain people.
God makes two types of promises:
Unconditional Promises – This is a promise that is made without attaching any conditions whatsoever.
Unconditional Promises – This is a promise that is made without attaching any conditions whatsoever.
Unconditional Promises – This is a promise that is made without attaching any conditions whatsoever.
Unconditional Promises – This is a promise that is made without attaching any conditions whatsoever.
If I be lifted up....
Conditional Promises – This type of promise is subject to certain qualifications or requirements.
In this text, I not concerned about the promise but I have great info about the promise maker…
The Text
Two unchangeable things
God’s promise - His promise is his word
God is not man, that he should lie,
or a son of man, that he should change his mind.
Has he said, and will he not do it?
Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?
Numbers 23:
Deuteronomy 7:
Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations,
Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
So we can confidently say,
“The Lord is my helper;
I will not fear;
what can man do to me?”
2. His Oath
Hewbrews 13:6
Instead of leaving us in our doubt, God’s mercy and love leads Him not only to promise blessing to Abraham, but also to swear it.
- In this text, I not concerned about the promise but I have great info about the promise maker…
God has made promises through his word…
teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”
I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
John
And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
He gives power to the faint,
and to him who has no might he increases strength.
Even youths shall faint and be weary,
and young men shall fall exhausted;
but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Matthew
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”
And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.
It’s getting ready to happen!!!
