“Promise! Peksman! Mamatay man!” Sabay taas ang kanang kamay na parang nanunumpa. That is one of the funny things I remember in my Childhood days. It’s too easy to say a promise no? But due to the simplicity of saying a promise, maraming napapako. I’m one of those people who is guilty about it and I think everyone does. But you know what, there are lot of promises that God said and knows how to fulfill.
I remember a song that says,
“Pangako hindi kita iiwan
Pangakong di ko pababayaan
Pangako hindi ka na mag-iisa
Pangakong magmula ngayo'y tayong dalawa
Ang magkasama” but here is the right deal, lahat ng yun sinabi na ng Panginoon. Kulang pa nga yan eh. Ganoon kadami ang pangako ni God.
There are 3,573 promises in the Bible. Nakakatuwa. Sa kinadami dami nito, we always choose to worry. The Only thing God can not do is to lie.
I’ll enumerate some of His promises so that it can bring you comfort. It is a must that we should know His promises because those are the things we should hold on to. So here we go!
“I’ll never leave you nor forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5
See, hinding hindi ka kayang iwan ng Panginoon at mas lalong di ka niya kayang pahirapan. Speaking of reality, tayo ang nang iiwan. He is always there for us even if we leave Him, He is always there. Minsan when we commit something wrong, nakakahiya ngang lumapit sa Kanya eh, but God is willing to accept us kahit pa na ang dumi dumi natin. Remember the prodigals’ son story? The way the father accepts his son even if the son committed something wrong. That’s how God accept us with wide arms open ready to be hugged.
“Nothing is too hard for the Lord.” Genesis 18:14
Walang mahirap. In fact, God wants you to pray what is really hard for you to fulfill. Wag munang ipag dasal na God will be with you kasi the reality says that God will always be there for you. Kung feeling mo, pabagsak ka na, pray the impossible. Kung feeling mo, di ka sasagutin ng nililigawan mo, pray the impossible. Nothing is too hard for Him even if the situation says it’s impossible.
“He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.” Revelation 21:7
We are OVERCOMERS! Diba? This is so amazing. Ako, ikaw, tayo! We are all winners. If there are battles we are facing, ang sabi ni Lord “Tapos na yan, you already won. You already have the victory.” Sometimes the battle may knock us down but the war can be won. Battle is just a smaller picture while the war is the totality of it. Yep! In the end you will be victorious and inherits what God intended us to have.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
Alam ni Lord ang plano ng buhay mo. Hindi ikaw ang may alam sa plano mg buhay mo. Those are two different things. God knows your past and even what is really happening now, but the greatest of it is that He already knows your future. Kalma ka lang. The promise says it all. His plans are for good. If you are reading this, wag kang mag worry. You have bright future indeed.
“Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.” Acts 16:31
Jesus saves you and so does your family and the people around you. A lot of Christians have the same problem. How can they let their parents accept Jesus as their Saviour. The problem here is we are all lacking in actions. Yes we believe that He saves. Yes I am saved, but how about my parents and friends? Sometimes fullfilling a promise can be done by a third party which in this situation, God is calling you to be His mediator. Trust me, God will help you and that is one of His promises also.
See, these are some of His promises. Napakarami ng promises nya. Yet only few lang ang nasabi ko. Our God is our healer. Our God is our provider. He is our mighty refuge. The atmosphere changer. The lifter. The answer and He dwells inside of you.
One thing is for sure, God loves you so much that he died for you in the cross. John 3:16 says it all. A promise that was already been fulfilled. Mapalad ka. He died for you and me, or should I say US, leaving us all that He is really LOVE after all and that is an another promise.
