Promises for challenging times (3)


Wednesday 31st October 2018



'The word of our God stands forever.' Isaiah 40:8 NKJV



Here are some more promises from the Bible to encourage us in difficult times:
(1) 'You have made...the Most High your protector, and so no disaster will strike you, no violence will come near your home. God will put his angels in charge of you to protect you wherever you go' (Psalm 91:9-11 GNT). (2) 'The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them' (Psalm 34:7 NIV). (3) 'I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed' (Psalm 57:1 NIV). (4) 'The Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit' (Psalm 34:18 NIV). (5) 'The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer' (1 Peter 3:12 NIV). (6) 'He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me...because he delighted in me' (Psalm 18:16-19 NIV). (7) 'Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light' (Micah 7:8 NIV). (8) 'Having hope will give you courage. You will be protected and will rest in safety. You will lie down unafraid, and many will look to you for help' (Job 11:18-19 NLT). (9) 'With God's power working in us, God can do much, much more than anything we can ask or imagine' (Ephesians 3:20 NCV).

So what now? Over the last three days, we've read 25 promises. Why not write down each one separately, and give them to people who need some encouragement.
