“FURY OVER BROKEN FERRY PROMISE,” I am reading in the paper called THE AUCKLANDER. ( The Aucklander 5 July 2012 )
It says there also, “The Kaipatiki Local Board is angry it’s had to backtrack on promises it made to the community because Auckland Transport has denied it the funding it promised.”
THERE IS FURY OVER BROKEN PROMISES.
That’s why I don’t promise anything anymore.
THERE IS JOY OVER KEPT PROMISES.
I am rejoicing over the promises in the BIBLE. They will never be broken. Why can I say that? Because the master author of the Bible is God the Holy Spirit.
And all the promises God the Son ever made are all fulfilled, except one. That is the promise of His Second Coming.
Here are seven promises from the BIBLE the Lord Jesus Christ gives us as we are journeying along the way of life.
Are you in need? The Lord promises you HELP (Hebrews 13:5,6).
Do you feel weak? The Lord promises you STRENGTH (Isaiah 41:10).
Are you suffering from despondency? The Lord promises you CHEER (Matthew 14:27).
Are you perplexed? The Lord promises you GUIDANCE (Psalm 32:8).
Are you in trouble? The Lord promises you PEACE. (Isaiah 66:12)
Are you full of sorrow? The Lord promises you JOY (Isaiah 61:3).
And what about your service for the Lord? How is the service for the Lord going? He promises you POWER (Acts 1:4-8)
In the BIBLE we are not only reading about the first coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, but also about his second coming.
Here are some prophecies of the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ:
It was foretold by the prophets: Daniel 7:13
It was foretold by angels: Acts 1:10,11
It was foretold by Paul: First Timothy 6:14
It was foretold by the Lord Jesus Christ Himself : Matthew 25:31
I am waiting for his Second Coming. What about you?
The promise of the SECOND COMING , Matthew 25:31 will never be broken, because the promise is made by God the Son. There it says,
“‘When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory.'”
