February 9
There is no angling with God. There is no wavering. There is no favoritism. He has a clear and distinct policy that applies to everyone who approaches Him in the name of Jesus Christ. We who believe may rest upon His promises and trust that they are for each of us to claim.
In II Corinthians 1:19, 20 Paul says, “The Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached to you…is not ‘yea and nay,’ for all the promises of God in Him are yea (yes) and in Him amen (so be it) to the glory of God.”
When we stand on the Word of God, upon the promises Jesus came to assure to us, we know they are true! They were true when the Lord inspired the scribes who penned them, they were true when Jesus reiterated them and expanded upon them when He walked among the children of men, and they are true today.
Whatever our need may be, whatever the deep longing of our heart may entail, we know if we ask anything in His name, He “will do it” John 14:13. We cannot ask for something that would be sinful to desire, but if our request is in accordance with His precepts, His promises, His love, it shall be granted to us.
