Daily Affirmations - Day 2 - A Word in Season - Firmly Fixed in the Heavens
Day 2: Firmly fixed in the heavens
Forever, O Lord, Your word is firmly fixed in the heavens (Psalm 119:89 – ESV).
[Humans] sometimes break their promises; sometimes they are unable to fulfil them. God never has gone, and never will go back on His Word (Hebrews 6:17-19).
Forever His Word is settled (firmly fixed) in heaven (Psalm 119:89).
“The scripture cannot be broken” (John 10:35 - KJV).
God is abundantly able to fulfil all He has promised (Ephesians 3:20).
He is the almighty God (Genesis 17:1).
There is nothing too hard or impossible for Him to do (Jeremiah 32:27; Matthew 19:26).
Jesus says, “All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth” (Matthew 28:18).
God has given us many “exceeding great and precious promises: that by these we might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” (2 Peter 1:4).
I am satisfied many do not appreciate the promises of God as they ought. There are promises in the good old Bible that apply themselves to our every need.
He has promised to “supply all our needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19).
He has “given us all things that pertain unto life and godliness” (2 Peter 1:3 - KJV).
He “gives us richly all things to enjoy” (1 Timothy 6:17).
We need not be covetous; He “opens [His] hand, and satisfies the desire of every living thing” (Psalm 145:16).
Praise and honor be to His name!
~ Emil Kreutz, The Promises of God (slightly edited).
By the word of God the worlds were made,
And are held in place by His commands;
All the grasses wither and the flowers fade,
But His truth forever stands.
More to be desired than honey sweet,
Richer are its treasures, far, than gold;
Like a brilliant light, it shines to guide my feet,
Never grows its story old.
Thy eternal law is my delight,
Strength and daily manna to my soul;
’Tis my meditation all the day and night,
Balm to make the wounded whole.
Stream of life from heaven, crystal pure,
Shed thy cooling freshness over me;
Let my thirsting spirit, till I thirst no more,
Drink thy sparkling waters free.
~ Clara M. Brooks, 1907
