God Keeps His Promises: A Scripture-Based Encouragement

In a world filled with uncertainty, broken commitments, and shifting values, it is comforting to know that God keeps His promises. Unlike people, who sometimes fail to follow through due to weakness, forgetfulness, or changing circumstances, God's character is unchanging, and His Word is steadfast. When He makes a promise, He is faithful to fulfill it.

God's Promises Are Trustworthy

The Bible is filled with God's promises—promises of peace, provision, protection, forgiveness, and eternal life. These aren't empty words. They are guarantees backed by the character of God Himself. Numbers 23:19 assures us, “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?” This verse reminds us that God doesn’t speak lightly. When He speaks, He acts.

God’s Covenant with Abraham

One of the earliest examples of God’s faithfulness to His promises is found in the life of Abraham. In Genesis 12:2-3, God promised to make Abraham a great nation, bless him, and make his name great. Though Abraham had to wait many years, God fulfilled every part of His promise. Hebrews 6:13-15 reflects on this, saying, “And so, after waiting patiently, Abraham received what was promised.” God's promises are not bound by our timetable. He fulfills them in His perfect timing.

The Fulfillment in Jesus Christ

The greatest promise kept was the coming of the Messiah. Throughout the Old Testament, God promised a Savior who would redeem His people. Isaiah 9:6 foretold, “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given...” Hundreds of years later, this promise was fulfilled in the birth of Jesus Christ. In 2 Corinthians 1:20, Paul confirms, “For all the promises of God find their Yes in Him.” Jesus is the living proof that God keeps His Word.

Encouragement for Believers Today

God’s promises extend to us today. He promises to never leave us (Deuteronomy 31:6), to give us wisdom when we ask (James 1:5), to work all things together for our good (Romans 8:28), and to prepare a place for us in eternity (John 14:2-3). When life feels overwhelming, cling to these truths. You may not see the full picture now, but God's promises are never void.

Hold on in Faith

Hebrews 10:23 encourages believers, “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.” Even when circumstances challenge our faith, we can stand firm knowing that God's promises do not change with our emotions or circumstances.

Let this truth bring peace to your heart: God keeps His promises. His Word is true, His heart is kind, and His timing is perfect. Whether you're waiting on a breakthrough, praying for healing, or longing for peace, remember—the God who promised is faithful.

Scripture Passage:  Matthew 6:25-34

The following are my notes taken during my pastor's sermon.

Jesus Said, "Don't Worry!"

For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?  Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?  And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life?  And why are you worried about clothing? Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin,  yet I say to you that not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these.  But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith!  Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear for clothing?’  For the Gentiles eagerly seek all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. - Matthew 6:25-34

It is a sin to worry.  

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. - Philippians 4:6

1.  Look at the birds.
2.  Look at the flowers.
3.  Look at your heart.

Seek God first.

We are to live one day at a time.


We crucify today between two trees:  yesterday and tomorrow.

We can only have ONE Master.

He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him.  But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name. - John 1:11-12
