Promises of
God – God is Able to Keep His
Promises
2 Timothy 3:16- 17 All Scripture is inspired by God
Types of Promises
Positive
– Good stuff, blessings
Negative
– Correction, punishment
Unconditional
– “I Will …”
Conditional
– If you X then I will Y.
Before we explore God’s promises, let’s look at why we
believe that God can keep his promises.
We all want to keep our promises. We want to be a “Man
of our word”, but sometimes we don’t keep our promises.
What are some of the reasons we sometimes
make promises, and fail to keep them?
o
Reasons beyond our
control
o
We change our mind
o
We decide something else
is more important.
Why doesn’t God have these
excuses?
Matthew19:26 (nothing is beyond his control)
Psalm136:10-12 (He is steadfast, not wishy washy)
James 1:17 (He
will not change his priorities)
He is ABLE
For by him all things were created, in heaven and on
earth, visible and invisible.
