Promises Of God

^{Whenever
you really want to know what the foundation of a Christian truly is - observe them in a crisis situation.}

^{Who we really are
will be seen when we are faced with terrible troubles, when everything in hell seems to be attacking us on all sides.
THEN! That’s when you know what a Christian’s foundation is built on. How we handle the circumstances of life
tells what our foundation (if any) is built on – whether it is built on sand or on the rock - Jesus the Christ.}

^{Jesus has left us
His "Living Words of Power" and expects us to use them - not when troubles come, but to use them to build strong faith
within us before we're faced with trials, troubles, testing, and whatever else we may have to deal with in this life.}

^{It's fine to make
faith confessions and sing praises unto our Father in Heaven while we're in a season of plenty, joy and happiness; but when
troubles begin does your praises stop, are you still making your faith confessions when sorrow has entered in, are your words
the words of faith or are they the words of your troubles.}

^{God said He will never
leave us nor forsake us - and I believe Him. Now, take Him at His Word and no matter what you're faced with today, tomorrow,
or whenever; always say what the Word of God says about every circumstance of life. Give no place to our true enemy the devil
- because he's looking for any open door you give him, so never murmur or complain, but keep on making faith confessions all
the more and praise God all the more in the face of every trial, test, trouble, and circumstance.}

^{Be Blessed and Trust God}

Luke 6:46-49 says,

⁴⁶ “So why do you keep calling me ‘Lord, Lord!’ when you don’t do what I say? ⁴⁷ I will show you what it’s like when someone comes to me, listens to my teaching, and then follows it. ⁴⁸ It is like a person building a house who digs deep and lays the foundation on solid rock. When the floodwaters rise and break against that house, it stands firm because it is well built. ⁴⁹ But anyone who hears and doesn’t obey is like a person who builds a house without a foundation. When the floods sweep down against that house, it will collapse into a heap of ruins." (NLT)

James 1:22-25 says,

²²Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. ²³Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror ²⁴and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. ²⁵But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does. (NIV)
