Resurrection Day 311: God’s Oath

Can you feel the fragrance of the promise of the Lord over your life? 

This is another fragrance we can carry.  The fragrance of promise.  The fragrance of hope.  The fragrance of Truth. 

The Word of the Lord stands firm.  His purposes through ALL generations. 

This is what is true. 

We can stand upon God’s promises. 

We need to remember this again.

Remember!

Draw from deep within your heart and breathe in the promises of God. 

You were made with a promise.  God’s promises tucked lovingly within your heart.  His promises written into the story He wrote about you before you were born.  Every one of us has promises. 

Remember the promises in Scripture.  You can lay hold of them.  Believe in them.  Lean on them.  Let them be a buoy to you when you are afraid that you’re drowning. 

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will secure your path.

What are God’s oaths?  What has He promised to you, individually?  What has He promised to all believers?

God also bound Himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly sure that He would never change His mind.  So, God has given both His promise and His oath.  These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie.  Therefore, we who have fled to Him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us.  This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls.  It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary.  Hebrews 6:17-19

What is the fragrance over your life?  I’m asking again this week…

Do you carry the fragrance of hope, or has disappointment soured you?

Do you carry the fragrance of promise, or has hope deferred made you heart sick?

Do you carry the fragrance of Truth, or has the lie become the stench around you?

Today, I encourage you to consider your fragrance.  Go to God and let Him shower you and release a new fragrance over you.  Lean into His heart and gather the rosebuds of promise.  Today is a great day to begin again!!
