God is not a man

God is not a man, so He does not lie.
He is not human, so He does not change His mind.
Has He ever spoken and failed to act?
Has He ever promised and not carried it through?

God does not lie, He does not break His word. He never changes his mind, and hence never recalls His promise. That is why it is said that with God there is no variableness nor shadow of turning.  When He says something, He performs it in His providence (His foresightful care for His creatures) and in His perfect timing.

God promises through His written word (scripture, which He inspired) and His spoken word (e.g. prophesies, words spoken to you). Because He does not lie and He always keeps His promises, you are in a good position if you take hold and stand on His promises. Today He says to you, "Have I ever promised and not come through?"

Suggestions for Prayer: Ask God to help you live life believing His promises. Pray that He reveals His heart to you concerning any situation through His word. Pray for a rhema by asking God to speak to you daily through His Word and give you insight into it.
One-Year Daily Bible Reading Plan - Jan. 08 2010 - Genesis 20-22 (OT), Matthew 8 (NT).

Suggested Prayer Point for yourself - Pray that this year you experience success and prosperity in every area of your life. Pray that this promise will also be extended to your loved ones. Supporting Scriptures - Psalm 1:3, Psalm 128:2, Isaiah 65:21 -23.

Suggested General Prayer Point - Pray for people that are being made redundant. Pray that they may have an added sense of God's presence with them each and every day. Pray for their ability to trust God in the midst of sadness, anger, uncertainty and feelings of dejection. Pray that they may have fresh opportunities, new direction, and the ability to see and receive the blessings.

God's Love and Mine, Rita.
