Press into God’s promises!

Press into God's promises.
"You have rescued me, O God who keeps his promises." Ps 31:5 TLB
When you find yourself in a crisis, you have to choose: faith or fear? God's purpose or random history? A God who knows and cares or a God who isn't there? If you're wise, you'll choose to trust God's promises.
You'll believe that God is up to something good, even though all you see looks bad.
You'll sing the hymn with confidence: "His oath, His covenant, His blood, support me in the whelming flood. When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay." Nothing deserves your attention more than God's covenants.
No words written on paper will ever sustain you like the promises of God.
To the bereaved: "Weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning" (Ps 30:5 NIV).
To the besieged:"The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all" (Ps 34:19 NIV).
To the sick: "The Lord sustains them on their sickbed and restores them from their bed of illness" (Ps 41:3 NIV).
To the lonely: "I will never leave you nor forsake you" (Heb 13:5 NKJV).
To the dying: "In my Father's house are many rooms...I go to prepare a place for you" (Jn 14:2 ESV).
To the sinner: "My grace is sufficient for you" (2Co 12:9 NIV).
Press into God's promises.
When fears surface, respond with this thought: "But God said..."
When doubts arise, "But God said..."
When guilt overwhelms you, "But God said..."
Turn to God's spoken covenants. Search the Scriptures like a miner digging for gold.
Once you find a nugget, grasp it and trust it!
