The Power of Promises
You can worship God with great feeling and expression: lift your hands, cry, weep, shout, jump up and down or bow in reverence before Him. You can tell God a thousand times: “God, I love you, I love you, I love you”, but if you don’t keep your promises, your worship is bogus and means nothing. Your life reveals your love. And your passion for God is demonstrated by your promise keeping. If you want to know God, to sense His presence, and to see His power in your life: Keep your promises. In the ancient world, the more serious of promises were called “covenants”. And today, we need to be motivated to faithfully keep and fulfill the promises that we make. Malachi 2:10-16
