Josué 21

Josué 21

Morgan - My All in All Not one of all the LORD's good promises to the house of Israel failed. -- Joshua 21:45 (NIV) The LORD is faithful to all his promises.. -- Psalm 145:13 (NIV) The faithfulness of God is that aspect of His character that results in His complete adherence to fulfilling His Word and keeping His promises. He is unalterably reliable to do exactly as He has said. Because He is trustworthy, we can trust and not worry. God is not a man who lies, or a son of man who changes His mind. Does He speak and not act, or promise and not fulfill?. -- Numbers 23:19 You know with all your heart and all your soul that none of the good promises the Lord your God made to you has failed. Everything was fulfilled for you; not one promise has failed.. -- Joshua 23:14 Not one of all the good promises He made through His servant Moses has failed.. -- 1 Kings 8:56 Lord, You have treated Your servant well, just as You promised.... May Your faithful love comfort me, as You promised Your servant.... Sustain me as You promised.... Defend my cause, and redeem me; give me life, as You promised.. -- Psalm 119:65, 76, 116, 154 Splendid to be so near the gates of heaven! I am lost in amazement! There has not failed one word of all His good promises! —Frances Ridley Havergal on her deathbed CERTAIN FULFILMENT of PROMISES - Joshua 21:45 GOD’S PROMISES WILL BE FULFILLED, for: I.This verse affirms the fulfilment of some: Promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob of a numerous seed, and of the land of Canaan for possessions. Promises to them in Egypt, to Moses, and then to Joshua. Land flowing with milk and honey. All the land. Enemies conquered. Lands allotted. Zebulon dwelt by the sea. Judah had praise. Issachar had an agricultural district. Asher dipped his foot in oil. Naphtali had the sea and coast. II.There were peculiar difficulties in the way. Abraham and Sarah, old and childless.Isaac offered.Rebeckah barren. Jacob threatened by Esau. Grevous famine. Anger of the neighbours excited. Bondage in Egypt. Murder of all males. Red sea. Want of water and bread. War with Amalek. Sin in the camp. Difficulties in conquest. Anakims giants. Walled town. Chariots of iron. Vast numbe[r]. III.God has fulfilled many others to his Israel: The Gift of Jesus. No destruction by flood. To Gideon, David, the apostles. He promised to hear prayer, to comfort, to bless, instruct, strengthen, support, provide for thee, and he has done it. BELIEVE, THEN, HIS PROMISE: 1.That Jesus shall be satisfied. 2.That thou shalt be heard. 3.That thou shalt persevere. 4.That thou shalt inherit glory.
