The Promises of God

As humans, we are unable to keep every promise we make. We might try hard, but sometimes we forget, we are negligent, there might be circumstances beyond our control or we might change our mind and decide to go in a different direction.

The Lord, however, is famous for His promises – Here are some biblical statements about God’s promises. Take heart and hold on to what He has promised you – no matter what you might be going through.
