The Believer's Daily Remembrancer
He is faithful that promised.- Hebrews 10:23.
The promises of God were freely made; but being made, they must be fulfiled, for God is faithful. He has promised us as believers eternal life-the pardon of all sin-purity of heart- peace of conscience-growth in grace-perseverance in his ways-support under all our trials -supplies for all our wants-and that all things shall work together for our good. These promises we should believe, and expect the Lord to make them good. he is faithful to his promises, this is clear from the infinite perfection of his nature-the stability of his well-ordered covenant-his solemn oath-the testimony of all his saints-the gift of his beloved Son-the history of the church in all ages-and the design with which the promises were made. Let us therefore remember, that, " faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it." Believe, that, "the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil:" or "the evil one." And let us commit the keeping of our souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator. We cannot place too much confidence in his word, nor too steadily expect its fulfilment. Heaven and earth may pass away, but his word can undergo no change. It is changeless as his nature, and immutable as his throne. Nothing is so stable as God’s word.
True to his word, God gave his Son
To die for crimes which men had done:
Blessed pledge! he never will revoke
A single promise he has spoke.
