Pastor'sNotes

Another new year! Who can believe it? All I can say is
that we're halfway to spring! Yea! It is that time of
year when we tend to begin a new set of promises we
make to ourselves and others. You know the drill, lose
weight, quit a habit, start exercising. The same routine
year after year.

You can count on it every year. We make resolutions.
You can also count on it every year, that we break
them. You know what else you can count on? God's
promises. Because unlike us, God's promises are
eternal and unwavering. He is the same yesterday,
today, and tomorrow. And isn't that a good thing for
us? I came across these 10 promises from God and I
wanted to share them with you for the new year. May
they be an inspiration and a blessing. Happy New Year!

10 Scriptures About God's Promises

us great and precious promises. These are the
promises that enable you to share his divine nature and
escape the world's corruption caused by human
desires.

Matthew 11:28-29

Isaiah 40:29-31
He gives power to the weak and strength to the

Romans 8:37-39
No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is
ours through Christ, who loved us. And I am convinced
that nothing can ever separate us from God's love.
Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,
neither our fears for today nor our worries about
tomorrow-not even the powers of hell can separate us
from God's love. No power in the sky above or in the
earth below-indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be
able to separate us from the love of God that is
revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Proverbs 1:33
But all who listen to me will live in peace, untroubled by
fear of harm."

"I am leaving you with a gift-peace of mind and heart.
And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So
don't be troubled or afraid.

If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and
believe in your heart that God raised him from the
dead, you will be saved.

Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God
is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.
