Today God says:
"Through My promises you are able to partake of the divine nature".
He promises me:
"Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these you might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust". (2 Peter 1:4)
My response to the word:
God's exceedingly great and precious promises are for me to claim, appropriate, and live by. He blesses me with these promises so that I would become a partaker of His divine nature and I would be able to escape the corruption of the world. God's promises are like promissory notes; they mature over a period of time. I will walk upon the promises of God throughout this day.
My prayer:
Lord, thank you for your great and precious promises which enable me to partake of your nature. I believe your Word, and I claim its promises for my life this day.
Today's scriptures:
"Certainly, Christ made God's many promises come true. For that reason, because of our message, people also honour God by saying, 'Amen". (2 Cor. 1:20 GW) "Since we have these promises, dear friends, we need to cleanse ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit and live a holy life in the fear of God". (2 Cor. 7:1 GW) "Then, instead of being lazy, you will imitate those who are receiving the promises through faith and patience". (Hebr. 6:12 GW)
Quote for today:
God never made a promise that was too good to be true. (D L Moody)
On this day:
"Scriptures are taken from the King James Bible or those marked (GW) are from the God's Word Translation, used with permission".
