What precious promises we have in God’s word as His people!
ESV 2 Peter 1:3-4: His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, 4 by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature,
Let us at KCPC:
Mine.
Mine the riches of God’s Word.
ESV Psalm 119:72 The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
Mind.
Focus your mind and thoughts on God and His truth; live out His truth in reliance upon His grace.
ESV Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Memorize.
Put to memorization God’s promises to you so that you can “stand†in the evil day with the Sword of the Spirit.
ESV Numbers 23:19 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? ….ESV John 14:13 Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.
Meditate.
Chew on God’s truths until you have a “taste†of sweetness and experience joy, peace, thankfulness.
ESV Psalm 119:103 How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Jesus asks KCPC: “Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God?”
Want to see the glory of God revealed more deeply in Christ this year in our lives?!
Mine.
Mind.
Memorize.
Mediate.
Here’s a great promise to keep before us this week:
ESV Ephesians 3:20-21: Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
In Christ’s love,
