‘Come and Join Me in God’s Word’ – God’s Promise and Oath

Hebrews 6: 18-19 NLT So, God has given both His promise and oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to Him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary.

These two unchangeable things are God’s promise and His oath to us. God embodies all truth; therefore, He cannot lie. Because God is truth, we can be secure in His promises; we don’t need to wonder if He will change His plans. Our hope is immovable, anchored in God, just as a ship’s anchor holds firmly to the seabed. To the true seeker who comes to God to belief, God gives an unconditional promise of acceptance. When you ask God with openness, honesty, and sincerity to save you from your sins, He will do it. This truth should give you encouragement, assurance, and confidence.

Prayer 

Father God, we praise and thank You for the promise and oath You have given to us. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for You, O God; to lie. Therefore, we have fled to You our refuge and strength and have this great confidence we hold onto, the hope that lies before us. This hope You have given to us, is strong and trustworthy an anchor for our souls. Thank You that it leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary, through Jesus Christ our precious Lord, and through the supernatural power of the Holy  Spirit of God. Amen
