You know, throughout the Bible,
there are so many promises
00:00:31.93\00:00:34.63
that can bring peace,
that can bring comfort,
00:00:34.66\00:00:37.83
that can bring encouragement.
00:00:37.87\00:00:39.73
And today, we're
praying about God's promises.
00:00:39.77\00:00:42.97
One of my favorite passages
is found in John 14:1-3,
00:00:43.00\00:00:47.88
Jesus says, "Let not
your heart be troubled,
00:00:47.91\00:00:50.85
you believe in
God, believe also in me.
00:00:50.88\00:00:53.42
In my Father's
house are many mansions,
00:00:53.45\00:00:56.22
if it were not so,
I would have told you.
00:00:56.25\00:00:58.75
I go to prepare a place for you.
00:00:58.79\00:01:00.52
And if I go and
prepare a place for you,
00:01:00.56\00:01:02.69
I will come again and
receive you to Myself,
00:01:02.72\00:01:05.73
that where I am
there, you may be also."
00:01:05.76\00:01:10.20
What a wonderful
promise that is to know
00:01:10.23\00:01:12.63
that Jesus went to
prepare a place for us,
00:01:12.67\00:01:15.27
and He is coming again
and He's coming to receive us
00:01:15.30\00:01:18.51
and to take us home.
00:01:18.54\00:01:20.08
We'll be able to
spend eternity with Him
00:01:20.11\00:01:22.11
to finally see our Savior
00:01:22.14\00:01:23.91
and Lord Jesus
Christ face to face.
00:01:23.95\00:01:26.31
I don't know about you,
but I have plenty of questions
00:01:26.35\00:01:30.19
and a whole bunch of praise
00:01:30.22\00:01:31.59
that I wanna give
our Lord and Savior.
00:01:31.62\00:01:33.56
And I just want to
praise Him for eternity.
00:01:33.59\00:01:35.62
So I'm looking
forward to that wonderful day
00:01:35.66\00:01:37.79
when He comes back
to receive us to Him.
00:01:37.83\00:01:40.23
And so I stand on that
promises, that promise,
00:01:40.26\00:01:43.26
and many of the other
promises in the Word of God.
00:01:43.30\00:01:47.67
Standing on the
promises of Christ, my King
00:01:47.70\00:01:52.97
Through eternal
ages let his praises ring
00:01:53.01\00:01:57.65
Glory in the
highest, I will shout and sing
00:01:57.68\00:02:02.78
Standing on the promises of God
00:02:02.82\00:02:07.72
Standing, standing
00:02:07.76\00:02:12.76
Standing on the
promises of God, my Savior
00:02:12.79\00:02:17.97
Standing, standing
00:02:18.00\00:02:24.31
I'm standing
00:02:24.34\00:02:26.34
on the promises of God
00:02:26.37\00:02:31.88
Dear heavenly Father, I
just wanna thank You for...
00:02:34.68\00:02:38.05
the precious promises
that are found in Your Word.
00:02:38.09\00:02:42.19
Lord, I'm so thankful
that Jesus paid it all
00:02:42.22\00:02:46.80
on the cross for our sins.
00:02:46.83\00:02:49.53
Thank You for caring about
us enough and loving us enough
00:02:49.56\00:02:53.50
to prepare a place for us
to come back and to receive us
00:02:53.54\00:02:57.61
and want to
spend eternity with us.
00:02:57.64\00:03:01.38
I'm just blown away by
that because I'm just like,
00:03:01.41\00:03:04.55
who are we, Father,
00:03:04.58\00:03:06.11
that You would want to
spend eternity with us.
00:03:06.15\00:03:09.15
But You're so
gracious, You're so kind,
00:03:09.18\00:03:11.19
You're so merciful,
00:03:11.22\00:03:12.79
and You love us
with an everlasting love.
00:03:12.82\00:03:15.82
And so, Father, I just
wanna thank You for the love
00:03:15.86\00:03:18.06
that You've bestowed upon us.
00:03:18.09\00:03:19.83
I wanna thank You for Jesus
00:03:19.86\00:03:22.50
and I wanna thank
You for Your kindness,
00:03:22.53\00:03:24.93
Your mercy and Your grace.
00:03:24.97\00:03:26.94
Thank you, Father,
in Jesus' name we pray.
00:03:26.97\00:03:30.11
Amen
00:03:30.14\00:03:31.47
Heavenly Father,
thank You for Your promises.
00:03:36.98\00:03:40.42
Lord, You've scattered
them all throughout Your Word.
00:03:40.45\00:03:43.69
We find them as
we search for hope,
00:03:43.72\00:03:46.32
strength, encouragement, love.
00:03:46.35\00:03:49.66
As we look we
find that You promise
00:03:49.69\00:03:52.06
to never leave
us nor forsake us.
00:03:52.09\00:03:54.96
You promise us
a future and hope.
00:03:55.00\00:03:58.17
Lord, in these uncertain times,
00:03:58.20\00:03:59.97
help us to cling
to Your promises,
00:04:00.00\00:04:02.87
to search Your
Word for them daily,
00:04:02.90\00:04:05.37
to write them on
the walls of our hearts
00:04:05.41\00:04:08.01
and to share them with others.
00:04:08.04\00:04:10.31
Oh, Lord, how we need you.
00:04:10.35\00:04:12.61
Amen.
00:04:12.65\00:04:13.98
Standing on the
promises that cannot fail
00:04:19.45\00:04:25.33
When the howling storms
of doubt and fear assail
00:04:25.36\00:04:31.07
By the living Word of God
00:04:31.10\00:04:33.64
I shall prevail
00:04:33.67\00:04:36.34
For I'm standing
on the promises of God
00:04:36.37\00:04:43.21
Standing, standing
00:04:43.24\00:04:48.28
Standing on the
promises of God, my Savior
00:04:48.32\00:04:53.66
Standing, standing
00:04:53.69\00:04:59.46
I'm standing on
the promises of God
00:04:59.49\00:05:05.50
And I like this verse.
00:05:05.53\00:05:06.87
Standing on the
promises of Christ, the Lord
00:05:06.90\00:05:11.34
I'm bound to him
eternally by love's strong cord
00:05:11.37\00:05:16.85
I'm overcoming daily
with the Spirit's sword
00:05:16.88\00:05:22.38
For I'm standing on
00:05:22.42\00:05:24.72
The promises of God
00:05:24.75\00:05:29.69
Lord and creator of
the heavens and the earth,
00:05:32.76\00:05:35.53
the one who holds
the stars in His hands
00:05:35.56\00:05:37.77
and guides them on their path.
00:05:37.80\00:05:40.10
Who makes everything happen
in its time and in its season,
00:05:40.14\00:05:44.07
Lord, Your creation
demonstrates Your faithfulness.
00:05:44.11\00:05:47.74
You are unchanging
00:05:47.78\00:05:49.34
just as the promises
You have made Your people.
00:05:49.38\00:05:52.08
And I thank You,
Lord, that You will
00:05:52.11\00:05:53.62
carry out Your promises
00:05:53.65\00:05:54.98
and You will
watch over Your people.
00:05:55.02\00:05:57.39
And, Lord, You will be glorified
00:05:57.42\00:05:58.92
as a result of such.
00:05:58.95\00:06:00.62
So, Lord, I thank
You for Your promises.
00:06:00.66\00:06:02.36
I thank You for
Your faithfulness
00:06:02.39\00:06:03.73
and, Lord, all
that You're doing.
00:06:03.76\00:06:05.39
And even though we may
not understand it, Lord,
00:06:05.43\00:06:07.50
we can hold tight.
00:06:07.53\00:06:09.10
And hold strong, Lord,
to the promises You've made,
00:06:09.13\00:06:11.73
for You are God.
00:06:11.77\00:06:13.50
And just as You hold the heavens
00:06:13.54\00:06:14.87
and the earth together
00:06:14.90\00:06:16.24
and the stars and
all their courses,
00:06:16.27\00:06:18.44
Lord, You are
faithful to Your promises.
00:06:18.47\00:06:20.38
And so, Lord, we
thank You for Your love.
00:06:20.41\00:06:22.64
We thank You, Lord, for
how You watch out for us
00:06:22.68\00:06:24.88
and how You protect us.
00:06:24.91\00:06:26.51
And, Lord, I just ask You
to be glorified in all its done
00:06:26.55\00:06:29.05
and help us, Lord, to see
00:06:29.08\00:06:30.42
Your hand
working as only You can.
00:06:30.45\00:06:34.56
So thank You again, Lord.
00:06:34.59\00:06:35.92
And we ask that You'd be praised
00:06:35.96\00:06:37.29
and You'd receive glory.
00:06:37.33\00:06:38.73
In this name of
Christ, we ask these things.
00:06:38.76\00:06:40.70
Dear God.
00:06:47.10\00:06:48.54
God, I know that in Your Word,
00:06:48.57\00:06:50.64
You made a lot of
promises to those who read it.
00:06:50.67\00:06:54.58
You promised that
You would stand by us,
00:06:54.61\00:06:57.68
that You would keep us
safe, that You would help us
00:06:57.71\00:07:01.35
through hard times
when the world caves in,
00:07:01.38\00:07:05.69
when things go wrong,
00:07:05.72\00:07:07.56
we lose.
00:07:07.59\00:07:09.62
God, You promised
that You'd be with us.
00:07:09.66\00:07:12.69
You promised in Your
Word that You love us.
00:07:12.73\00:07:16.56
And that You'll teach
us how to love others.
00:07:16.60\00:07:20.10
You promised that one
day we'll get to be with You.
00:07:20.14\00:07:25.64
You promised that
one day You'd come back
00:07:25.67\00:07:28.54
and that all the wrong would
be made right one day, God.
00:07:28.58\00:07:32.28
I know for me personally,
all I've seen is truth.
00:07:32.31\00:07:37.59
God, You are
who You say You are.
00:07:37.62\00:07:40.32
It's pretty evident.
00:07:40.36\00:07:42.86
I just want to say thank You.
00:07:42.89\00:07:45.16
From me, from
everyone, listening.
00:07:45.19\00:07:48.13
God, thank You
for just being God,
00:07:48.16\00:07:52.93
for being
truthful, for loving us
00:07:52.97\00:07:56.14
when others don't love us,
00:07:56.17\00:07:58.87
when we ourselves don't love us.
00:07:58.91\00:08:03.04
God, You sent Your Son.
00:08:03.08\00:08:04.81
You gave everything for
people who didn't deserve it.
00:08:04.85\00:08:10.29
And You
promised us that one day,
00:08:10.32\00:08:13.09
all of this pain would end.
00:08:13.12\00:08:15.29
God, If we just follow You,
we just live a life of love.
00:08:15.32\00:08:20.70
We learn to follow You
00:08:20.73\00:08:22.23
and love You and
You will teach us.
00:08:22.26\00:08:25.93
God, thank You for being
with us through hard times.
00:08:25.97\00:08:30.11
Even if we couldn't
tell that You were there,
00:08:30.14\00:08:33.88
You were...
00:08:33.91\00:08:35.31
'cause when we
look back on it, God,
00:08:35.34\00:08:37.51
we'll be able to see You.
00:08:37.55\00:08:39.31
So thank You for helping us now
00:08:39.35\00:08:42.88
and for helping
us in the future.
00:08:42.92\00:08:45.05
Thank You for
promising to never leave us,
00:08:45.09\00:08:48.59
loving us and forgiving us.
00:08:48.62\00:08:51.89
God, guide us in
our day to day lives.
00:08:51.93\00:08:56.60
Even when we stumble,
pick us up, we're only human.
00:08:56.63\00:09:02.67
We need You, God.
00:09:02.70\00:09:04.71
Thank You so much for
Your love, for Your grace,
00:09:04.74\00:09:09.68
and salvation through
Jesus that You gave us
00:09:09.71\00:09:12.61
even though You didn't have to.
00:09:12.65\00:09:15.42
Thank You for
all of those promises
00:09:15.45\00:09:17.29
You made in Your Word.
00:09:17.32\00:09:18.99
Thank You for
standing by what You said.
00:09:19.02\00:09:22.16
We love You, God...
00:09:22.19\00:09:24.79
in Your name, amen
00:09:24.83\00:09:27.16
Father, I am thinking
of what David told Solomon
00:09:32.57\00:09:36.50
that he should be
strong and of good courage
00:09:36.54\00:09:39.34
because the Lord
God would be with him
00:09:39.37\00:09:41.71
that You would not
leave nor forsake him
00:09:41.74\00:09:44.45
while he was in the service
of the house of the Lord,
00:09:44.48\00:09:47.45
Father, we claim
this same promise
00:09:47.48\00:09:50.29
not to leave us or forsake us
00:09:50.32\00:09:52.39
as we work in Your service,
00:09:52.42\00:09:54.26
lifting up Jesus in our lives
00:09:54.29\00:09:56.62
that all men will
be drawn upward to You.
00:09:56.66\00:09:59.59
Our only real peace
and our only real hope
00:09:59.63\00:10:03.06
and to someday enter
into eternal life with You.
00:10:03.10\00:10:06.63
Amen.
00:10:06.67\00:10:08.00
Jeremiah 29:11 is
such a wonderful verse.
00:10:11.04\00:10:15.64
Thank You for this promise.
00:10:15.68\00:10:18.21
For I know the plans I
have for You says the Lord,
00:10:18.25\00:10:21.55
they are plans for
good and not for disaster,
00:10:21.58\00:10:25.85
to give You a future and a hope.
00:10:25.89\00:10:29.52
And I love Matthew 11:28-29.
00:10:29.56\00:10:32.86
Thank You, Father...
00:10:32.89\00:10:36.06
He says, "Come to Me
00:10:36.10\00:10:37.43
all you who are
weary and burdened
00:10:37.47\00:10:39.33
that I will give you rest.
00:10:39.37\00:10:42.00
Take My yoke upon
you and learn from Me,
00:10:42.04\00:10:44.87
for I am gentle
and humble in heart,
00:10:44.91\00:10:47.88
and you will find
rest for your souls."
00:10:47.91\00:10:51.75
Thank You, Lord Jesus,
00:10:51.78\00:10:53.92
for the rest
that we have in You.
00:10:53.95\00:10:56.38
In Philippians
4:19 and this same God
00:10:59.55\00:11:02.59
who takes care of me
will supply all your needs
00:11:02.62\00:11:05.89
from His glorious riches,
00:11:05.93\00:11:08.26
which have been given
to us in Christ Jesus.
00:11:08.30\00:11:12.03
Praise the Lord for
His wonderful promises.
00:11:12.07\00:11:17.41
Father, there are
viewers who are watching,
00:11:17.44\00:11:19.44
who are crying out
to You in need of...
00:11:19.47\00:11:25.05
the promise, a word from You.
00:11:25.08\00:11:26.82
Those who are
asking for deliverance.
00:11:29.82\00:11:31.52
This one says, "My
neighbor is trying to harm me,
00:11:31.55\00:11:35.92
trying to frame me for
a crime to get my house.
00:11:35.96\00:11:40.53
Please pray that
God's will be done
00:11:40.56\00:11:42.46
and for God's
justice to prevail.
00:11:42.50\00:11:47.64
Father God, I
pray that You would...
00:11:47.67\00:11:50.21
be a hedge of protection
00:11:50.24\00:11:53.61
around this person, Lord.
00:11:53.64\00:11:57.41
Lord, grant justice and peace...
00:11:57.45\00:12:02.25
for those who are
dealing with alcohol
