These truly are precious promises given to the born again believer in Christ, and there are many, many more in the Bible like them. Why is it that so many would question such promises made by God? I hear from people from time to time that no one can really know if they are saved, that it is possible to lose your salvation, that doesn’t listen when they pray, that they feel so all alone and so on. Those statements contradict the Bible, contradict the Word of God. Why is that some cannot rest in the promises of God? Because of that in this world and in our lives that hinder the promises of God. What am I talking about? Satan stands before us to hinder the promises of God just as he stood before Eve in the Garden of Eden, Satan works to hinder the promises of God. Our own flesh hinders the promises of God as we often wonder within ourselves if God is really able to answer our prayers. Our doubts and fears hinder the promises of God as we feel all alone at times in this world, our minds taken away from the Lord by troubles and trials. There are many things that hinder the promises of God, but rest assured my friend that God always keeps His Word. Rest upon the promises of God.
