The promises of God

As Christians we know from Genesis, to Peter, Hebrews to Revelation the Bible is
full of God’s promises and His Word reminds us that He is faithful. Let this powerful
list of God’s promises teach you more about His incredible character. Reflect on this
rich collection of promise quotes to help you in whatever you’re facing today. Take
encouragement from the truth that God is with you.
As scripture says in Corinthians 1:20, we can take heart because “For no matter how
many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the
“Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God.” God’s promises reminds us of his
presence in our lives and shapes us to reflect his character. As we learn to trust him,
we grow in the Fruit of the Spirit displaying love, joy and peace in every
circumstance.
The following God’s promises Bible verses are taken from the NIV version of the
Bible.

You can provide for a child in poverty

God promises to give us everything we need in our daily lives. What’s more, He also
calls us to show that love and care to others. One way you can show God’s kindness is
by reaching out and sponsoring a child living in poverty.
You can provide a vulnerable child with vital healthcare, education and nutritious
meals. Sponsor a child like Richmond and send them to school and show them the
love of a local church.

and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that
you also may be where I am.
God’s promises about answering prayer

Psalm 37 4 Bible verse highlights God's promise to provide

Prayer is so powerful! Reflect on these Bible verses about prayer and let God’s
promises spur you on to pray to your Heavenly Father and share your hopes and needs
with Him today.
 James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives
generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

you have received it, and it will be yours.

will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks
receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be
opened. Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake

you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more
will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!

God’s promises about salvation
God saves and protects us in our day-to-day life. In Exodus we see the example of
God promising to save the Israelites from the hands of the Egyptians. In Exodus 5:6-
8 God makes promises to Moses, “Therefore, say to the Israelites: ‘I am the Lord, and
I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians. I will free you from being
slaves to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts
of judgment. I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will
know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the
Egyptians. And I will bring you to the land I swore with uplifted hand to give to
Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am the Lord.’”
And he kept his promise, finally bringing them to the promised land of Israel.
But moreover, God promises to give us eternal salvation. Take a moment to remember
the most precious of all God’s promises to us. Thanks to Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross,
God promises to forgive us and give us eternal life with Him.

whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us
our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, who are called by my name, will humble
themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I
will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
 John 8:36 So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
 Romans 10:9-10 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe
in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is
with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that
you profess your faith and are saved.
 1 Peter 1:3-4 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his
great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the
resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can
never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you.
  Colossians 3:24 Knowing that of the Lord you shall receive the reward of the
inheritance: for you serve the Lord Christ.

is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.
