God’s promises are there for us to dig out and use. Herbert Lockyer, in his book All the Promises of the Bible, informs us that there are over 7000 promises to be mined from the riches of God’s Word. In his collection, Mr. Lockyer “hopes that he has succeeded in marshalling a comprehensive and representative number of the promises which are like an arranged museum of ‘gems and precious stones and pearls’ of inestimable value in God’s cabinet of spiritual jewels, and which constantly remind the Christian of his true, abiding riches. All of these gracious promises deserve to be ‘bound upon our fingers and written upon the table[sic] of our hearts’.”
So I will attempt to bring to this blog a timely promise for living in today’s world. God has shown me many of “His great and precious promises,” and I hope to find a way to share them with you so you may write them on the tablet of your heart.
What better way than to start with the Sermon on the Mount? It is said to be a “Gospel in Miniature”, a synopsis of the teachings of our Great Teacher. May this blog bring you closer to God’s Word; and May God’s Word bring you closer to God’s love for you.
