It is so comforting to know that JESUS, our One True Living GOD who is truthful and
faithful and even powerful has promised to never leave us and will always be
there for us whatever happens. Every day when we wake up, we should remind
ourselves of these ten important promises of JESUS in the Bible so that we can
overcome all challenges that may come our way. Not just that, we can also feel
loved, guided, and comforted knowing that the LORD JESUS is always faithful and
keeps every promise He makes.
Here
are the 10 important promises of JESUS to us:
1. I will be with you.
The
LORD JESUS has promised us in Matthew 28:20 that He will be with us. Here is
the verse, “and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And I will
be with you always, to the end of the age.” Oh, what a consoling
promise it is! LORD, thank you for this promise of companionship with us. Thank
you that you will be with us and will never leave us.
2. I will protect you.
It
is written in 2 Thessalonians 3:3 that the LORD will protect us from the evil
one. Check the verse, “But the LORD is faithful, and He will
strengthen you and keep you safe from the evil one.” The LORD is our
shield and protection. He did everything to protect us from going to hell even
to the point of dying on the cross. And, even until now, He is working to save
His people from cruelty and from every form of danger.
3. I will be your strength.
Psalm
46:1 says, “God is our shelter and strength, always ready to help us in times of trouble.”
When we need strength to carry out our tasks and endure the hardships of life,
we can come to JESUS and ask Him to give us strength and help us overcome all
challenges in life.
4. I will answer you.
The
LORD JESUS has promised that He will answer us when we call. Meditate on this
verse in Jeremiah 33:3, “Call to me and I will answer you; I will
tell you wonderful and marvelous things that you know nothing about.” It
is so nice to know that the LORD wants to talk to us and will answer us when we
call. I have proven this many times, whenever I pray for wisdom and wise
counsel, the LORD answers me all I did was ask and wait for His reply. So, you
can do that too. Try it the LORD hears you.
5. I will provide for you.
The
LORD is our Provider. He has promised to supply all our needs in Matthew
6:25-34. He wants us to trust in Him and not to worry about the food and drink
we need and clothes to wear because we are much worthy than the birds of the
air and the wild flowers. They don’t work but the LORD JESUS feeds and clothes
them. Here is also another verse in Philippians 4:19 which says, “And with all His abundant wealth through
CHRIST JESUS, my GOD shall supply all your needs.”
6. I will give you peace.
The
LORD JESUS has promised us that He will give us His peace. Consider this verse
in John 14:27, “Peace is what I leave with you; it is my own peace that I give you. I
do not give it as the world does.” In my personal experience I am at
peace when I don’t commit sin but if I sin, the Spirit of the LORD leaves me
and I feel sad and troubled. So I always make sure that I follow what the LORD
says for me to maintain peace and have joy.
7. I will always love you.
Jeremiah
31:3 says, “I appeared to them from far away. People of Israel I have always loved you, so I continue to show you,
my constant love.” Wow!
How great is the love of JESUS for us! And, he continues to love us every day
by providing us with breath, good health, peace of mind, strength, joy and by
protecting us from all harm always.
8. I will give you eternal life.
The
LORD JESUS has promised us in John 3:16
that whoever believes in Him shall have eternal life and even if we die we will
live (John 11:25 ). He will raise
us up again and give us new immortal bodies and we will live with Him in heaven
where there is no more pain, suffering, and death (Revelation 21:4).
9. I will give you rest.
Whenever
I am down and tired of all the aches of this world, I just meditate on this
verse in Matthew 11:28 which says, “Come
to me all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads and I will give you
rest.”
Then I call on the name of JESUS and pray for comfort and help and I am helped
and comforted. It is the kind of comfort that you want all your life and you
don't want it to leave you. Only in JESUS we can find real rest, comfort, and
peace. Seek Him.
10. I will guide you.
The LORD JESUS says in Psalm 32:8, “I
will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and
watch over you.” Isn't it great that the LORD will guide us and advise
us in everything we do if we ask His help? Wow, what an amazing GOD we have. We
thank you, LORD for Your guidance and direction. Surely, you are our director
of this movie called life.
Now my dear reader, memorize and believe in all these promises
and you’ll surely be guided and you’ll live joyfully and peacefully. All you
need to do is to trust and believe that JESUS is a good and loving GOD (Nahum
1:7). You should also believe in this verse in Proverbs 30:5 which say, “GOD
keeps every promise He makes. He is like a shield for all who seek His
protection.” I pray that you will have the peace and love of our Great
GOD and SAVIOR LORD JESUS CHRIST. All glory, honor, highest praises, and
thanksgiving all belong to Him. I love you with the love of JESUS. God bless!
