Imploring God thro His Promises:
Significance Reinstated (Dec 11)
Dear Friends,
We have done 4 weeks into our
4th series of topical devotion on
Imploring God thro His Promises
following three earlier series on
Adoring God thro Thanksgiving,
Knowing God thro His Names
and Praising God thro Hymns.
Before we continue in the series,
let’s reconsider the significance
of Imploring God on His Promises.
We know the importance of prayer;
and there are so much to pray
about: dreams, hopes & plans.
But often we are held up by our
own doubts: Does God really
care about this request of ours?
How valuable then it is to pray
back to God the very promises
found in His Word. When we
speak God’s very words back
to Him, we no longer wonder
if this is something God cares
about, for He brought it up
in the very first place.
As we pray God’s promises,
we must always remember that
the starting point is the nature
of God. In fact the very essence
of God’s character is in itself a
promise: The Lord is trustworthy
in all he promises and faithful
in all he does (Psa 145:13).
Each time when God reveals
something of His nature, He is
promising us that He will be true
to that nature in any circumstance.
And His promises are eternally
rock solid for His very nature and
character stand behind them.
However, we should take note
that praying God’s Promises is
not some kind of magic formula.
Although scripture tells us
fervent prayers are effective,
we must always trust God to
work it In His Way & In His Time.
We must be patient, wait upon
the Lord and keep trusting that
His promises will come true!
