Foreword

commandment of his lips: I have esteemed the
words of his mouth more than my necessary
food.
Job 23:12
THE PROMISES BRING FAITH.
But what saith it? The word is nigh thee,
even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the
word of faith, which we preach;
Romans 10:8
THE PROMISES BRING SPIRITUAL
GROWTH.
As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of
the word, that ye may grow thereby:

Thy words were found, and I did eat them;
and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not

dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen
thee; yea, I will help thee.
Isaiah 41:10
The expression “FEAR NOT” is said to occur
365 times in the Bible. The cure for fear is faith in
God’s promises.
2 PROMISE OF PATIENCE
... We glory in tribulations also, knowing

that tribulation worketh patience.
Romans 5:3
There is a lot more to the Christian life than
speed. God can give you calmness amid the
confusion of this world.
3 PROMISE FOR JOY
... For the joy of the Lord is your strength.

Nehemiah 8:10
7
Promises of God
Joy like health and peace is the condition of the

Spiritual Man. It is part of the Kingdom of God. The
Lord’s joy can be your joy today.
4 PROMISE REGARDING LOVE
If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide

in my love....
John 15:10
Do you love Him selfishly only for His gifts to
you; or do you adore Him for His Person and
Presence. His Presence provides sufficient gifts.
5 PROMISE OF VICTORY OVER SATAN
And they overcame him (Satan) by the blood

of the Lamb....
Revelation 12:11
Your strength and authority rests in the power of
Jesus’ blood alone. Satan’s oppression and work can
be defeated by the blood of the Lamb. Sing it! Shout
it! There is power in the blood.
6 PROMISE FOR HEALING
But my God shall supply all your need...

Philippians 4:19
Your deliverance is in the redemptive work of
Christ. You can say to the Father, “In the name of
8

Jesus I receive deliverance from this thing that has

afflicted me. By the stripes of the Son of God I am
healed.”
7 PROMISE TO THE RIGHTEOUS
There is therefore now no condemnation to

them which are in Christ Jesus...
Romans 8:1
You can become the Righteousness of God in
Him (2 Cor.5:21). Christ gives you the privilege of
standing in the Father’s presence as though you had
never committed sin.
8 PROMISE FOR ANSWERED PRAYER
If I regard iniquity in my heart, the LORD

will not hear me.
Psalm 66:18
Unconfessed sin constitutes a barrier between
you and the Lord. Pride, selfishness, doubt, hate,

He is faithful and just to forgive.
9 PROMISE FOR WITNESSING
Return to thine own house, and show how

great things God hath done unto thee....
Luke 8:39
9
Promises of God
It must displease the Lord when believers fail to

speak of Him to their loved ones. Witnessing, like
charity, begins at home.
10 PROMISE TO THE WEAK
... God hath chosen the foolish things of the

world to confound the wise...
I Corinthians 1:27
God delights to use the foolish things. The
power of God is more fully seen when the person
who uses the “sword of the Spirit” is too weak in
himself to take credit for the victory.
11 PROMISE FOR HAPPINESS
Blessed is everyone that feareth the

LORD: ... happy shalt thou be, and it shall be
well with thee.
Psalm 128:1-2
The people of the world desire happiness above
everything else. They are willing to labor to find it.
The Christian has found the source.
12 PROMISE OF ESCAPE
... the snare is broken, and we are escaped.

Psalm 124:7
Christ came to destroy the works of the devil,
10
January
and to give deliverance to the captives. Christ is the

Door. Escape for your life.
13 PROMISE OF HIS WORD
He sent His Word, and healed them....

Psalm 107:20
God sent His spoken Word through the prophets.
He sent His living Word as His Son. Now He
unveils the life-giving Word in the Gospels and the
Epistles. He declares, “... The words that I have
spoken unto you are spirit, and are life.” (John6:63).
14 PROMISE FOR LIFE
So teach us to number our days, that we

may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
Since we have no guarantee of tomorrow, we
should treasure each hour as a jewel of great value
and use it in a way that brings glory to God and
blessing unto the lives of others.
15 PROMISE FOR ENDURANCE
Wait on the Lord, and keep His way....

Psalm 37:34
Results do not always come as rapidly as you
desire. In waiting there is growth and strength often
11
Promises of God
greater than the answer so impatiently longed for.
16 PROMISE OF POWER
... Ye shall receive power... and ye shall be

witnesses unto me....
Acts 1:8
Christ empowers us through His Holy Spirit.
This power is kept in force by daily prayer and Bible
study. He will strengthen you today!
17 PROMISE FOR DIRECTION
I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way

which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine
eye.
Psalm 32:8
It is a delight to obey His command. A pilot who
takes off without receiving orders may find disaster.
18 PROMISE FOR REJOICING
Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say,

Rejoice.
Philippians 4:4
It is said the robin will sing in the silvery shower
as well as in the bright sunshine. The believer who
abides in Christ can do the same.
12
January
19 PROMISE FOR THE HUMBLE
He must increase, but I must decrease.

John 3:30
Our words are often more humble than our acts.
Only as we are filled with the Spirit and walk in
obedience to Him who was “meek and lowly in
heart” will there be a decrease of self.
20 PROMISE FOR PROTECTION
The angel of the LORD encampeth round

about them that fear Him, and delivereth them.
Psalm 34:7
You are just a few moments of prayer away
from an angel to deliver you. Today, try and see how
often He helps you in the seemingly unimportant
problems.
21 PROMISE CONCERNING PRAYER
And the LORD turned the captivity of Job,

when he prayed for his friends....
Job 42:10
Job learned praying was much more effective
than arguing.
13
Promises of God
22 PROMISE FOR THE FUTURE
... He that doeth the will of God abideth

forever.
I John 2:17
Temporal fame is like a butterfly that may be
lovely to look at today, but it will be gone tomorrow.
Faithful servants of God will receive a “crown of
glory which fadeth not away.”
23 PROMISE FOR UNITY
Do all things without murmurings and

disputings.
Philippians 2:14
Let us use our lips for worship and reverent
prayer. Our lips should SING not STING. The unity
of the Spirit is lost by murmurings. David prayed,
“... Unite my heart to fear thy name” (Psalm 86:11).
24 PROMISE FOR THE TRUTHFUL
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward

parts....
Psalm 51:6
Because the Lord is true, we should maintain the
same integrity that is found in Him. A true Christian
gives his word and also keeps his word.
14
January
25 PROMISE FOR SLEEP
... for so He giveth His beloved sleep.

Psalm 127:2
Lay aside every doubt and fear. Put yourself
entirely in the charge of the one who has all power.
“And the peace of God... shall keep your hearts and
minds through Christ Jesus.” (Philippians4:7).
26 PROMISE FOR CHRISTIAN CHARACTER
But we ... are changed into the same image

from glory to glory....
II Corinthians 3:18
As an heir of God and joint heir of Jesus Christ,
you are to bear the image of our Lord. Your conduct
and Christian character should distinguish you as a
child of the King.
27 PROMISE FOR PRAYER
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions...

Matthew 6:7
Prayers are only meaningful when the heart
prays as well as the lips. You are better praying with
your heart and without words, than praying words
without your heart.
15
Promises of God
28 PROMISE REGARDING DEATH
... He bringeth them unto their desired

haven.
Psalm 107:30
Christ has replaced the dark door of death with
the beautiful gate of eternal life. He never promised
us smooth sailing, just a safe landing.
29 PROMISE TO THE BELIEVER
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in

prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Matthew 21:22
Refuse to look at the problems or circumstances
involved; keep your eyes on the promises of God.
After you have asked in faith, praise and thank God
daily for the answer.
30 PROMISE FOR RECEIVING
... he that watereth shall be watered also

himself.
Proverbs 11:25
One of the most beautiful promises of divine
government is found in the fact that no one can
impart a benefit without a blessing in return.
16
January
31 PROMISE OF HIS COMING
Looking for that blessed hope, and the

glorious appearing of ... our Savior Jesus Christ.
Titus 2:13

shout from on high, “... Well done, thou good and
faithful servant... enter thou into the joy of the
Lord.” (Matthew 25:21).
17
2 February
1 PROMISE OF SALVATION
Being justified freely by His grace through

the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
Romans 3:24
Salvation is FREE but not CHEAP. It is the
most expensive gift in the universe. He who refuses
His free gift must pay the price himself with eternal
death (Romans 6:23).
2 PROMISE FOR DELIVERANCE
Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He

shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the
righteous to be moved.
Psalm 55:22
Fear, fret, anger and all other such evidences of
lack of faith are destroyers. Call upon Him today.
“He shall sustain thee.”
3 PROMISE FOR SERVICE
... Always abounding in the work of the

Lord....
19
Promises of God
I Corinthians 15:58
To “abound” in the work of the Lord one must
go beyond the line of duty. Christians are
admonished by Paul to never be satisfied with just
being average. Our faithful labors are not in vain.
... ye shall be witnesses unto me....

Acts 1:8
Do you love to tell the story of Jesus? You can’t
keep quiet about the things that are really important
to you. Witness for Christ with your life and your
lips.
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where

is thy victory?
I Corinthians 15:55
He who sustains you by His grace today will
sustain you a million years from now in the
glory of His presence. Paul said, “to be with
Christ is far better.”
6 PROMISE TO THE PATIENT
... Let patience have her perfect work, that

ye may be perfect....
20
February
James 1:4
If our trials are borne patiently they can bring
blessing and lay the foundation for future reward.
Abraham was tried; he patiently waited, and
received the reward.
7 PROMISE FOR HEALTH AND HEALING
And let the beauty of the Lord our God be

upon us: ….
Psalm 90:17
One essential requirement for beauty is daily
sunlight. Jesus said, “I am the light.” He is called
the “... Sun of Righteousness ….” (Malachi 4:2). His
healing rays can reach you now!
8 PROMISE FOR THE NEEDY
Ask and it shall be given unto you....

Matthew 7:7
God is ready and willing to bestow what He
promises upon those who in full assurance take Him
at His Word and ask. We need not plead and beg
God to keep His promise. He cannot lie.

Let not your heart be troubled: ... I go to

prepare a place for you.
21
Promises of God

death.
10 PROMISE FOR WAITING ON GOD
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, ...

wait, I say, on the LORD.
Psalm 27:14
The word “wait” in Psalm 27 actually means to
“trust” or “hope.” He will bring to fruition His plans
for us. The problems of the present have already
been solved by His great power.
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my

words shall not pass away.
Matthew 24:35
Christian, don’t let yourself become a victim of
discontent and fruitless fretting. If you do, you’ll
lose the peace and joy which is your rightful
heritage. His comforting promises to you will not
fail.

him that loved us.
22

4:4).
13 PROMISE FOR AN ANSWER
And it shall come to pass that, before they

call, I will answer;...
Isaiah 65:24
The Lord often makes ready in advance the help
His children will require to face a crisis. Even today
God’s forethought is seen in the lives of His
children.
14 PROMISE OF LOVE
... we should love one another.

I John 3:11
By the thermometer of love gauge your
spirituality. Are you warm, helpful and affectionate?
Or are you cold, indifferent and selfish in your
attitudes?
The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous

man availeth much.
James 5:16
23
Promises of God
Words of appreciation are encouraging, but your

prayers are more important than your praise.
16 PROMISE FOR THE JOURNEY
Thy shoes shall be iron and brass, and as

thy days, so shall thy strength be.

If the Lord is sending you over stony paths and
rough roads He provides with strong shoes.
17 PROMISE TO THE CONTENT
... I have learned, in whatsoever state I am,

therewith to he content.

outside, but results from conditions on the inside.

upon us:....
Psalm 90:17
As you live on the victory side of trial and test,
the beauty of the Lord will increasingly radiate from
your countenance.
24

As you search for a scripture you will discover
many other precious truths along the way.
20 PROMISE FOR FORGIVENESS
And their sins and iniquities will I

remember no more.

What a wonder of divine forgiveness. Where did
our Savior bury your sins? He cannot remember!
21 PROMISE FOR CLEANSING
Who can understand his errors? Cleanse

Thou me from secret faults.
Psalm 19:12
He who permits secret faults to reign
undisturbed within his heart will soon be totally
polluted. There can be no compromise with sin.
Come to Him and say, “Cleanse Thou me.”
22 PROMISE FOR STANDING
... and having done all, to stand.

Ephesians 6:13
25
Promises of God
Where do you take your stand, with the crowd or

with Christ? It is manlike to follow people. It is
Godlike to follow principle.
23 PROMISE OF PROVISION
A land of wheat, and barley, and vines, and

fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive,
Deuteronomy 8:8
The foods of Egypt all grew without
exception in or on the ground (onions, leeks,
garlic, melons, cucumbers). In the wilderness it
was manna from Heaven. When they came to
Canaan the manna ceased and they fed on corn,
wheat, barley, pomegranates, grapes, figs and
olives. All these foods grew ABOVE the
ground. They represent the believer’s proper
diet—heavenly things.
... for he hath clothed me with the garments

of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of
righteousness,....
Isaiah 61:10
No matter how carefully tailored, man’s best
efforts are only inadequate “fig leaves.”
26
February
... when thou hast shut thy door, pray....

Matthew 6:6
After the disciples witnessed the prayer-life of
Jesus they came to Him and said, “... Lord, teach us
to pray....” (Luke 11:1).
26 PROMISE TO FRIENDS
I thank my God upon every remembrance of

you.
Philippians 1:3
Does anyone praise the Lord for the blessing of
your friendship? Friendship brings intimate joys of
mutual help and understanding. You can never
replace a friend, each one is pleasingly different.
27 PROMISE TO THE UNFORGIVING
Grudge not one against another, brethren....

James 5:9
To carry a grudge will hurt no one else as much
as it will hurt you. If you carry a grudge it is because
you will not forgive. What if God carried a grudge
against us?
27
Promises of God
28 PROMISE OF HIS LEADING
... use not liberty for an occasion to the

flesh, but by love serve one another.
Galatians 5:13
Freedom from the law does not give us the right
to do as we please, but opens the door to Christ who
leads us to do as we ought.
But of that day and hour knoweth no man....

Matthew 24:36
God doesn’t want us to become preoccupied
with specific future dates. He wants us to live in
fellowship with Him right now. The fact of His
coming does not depend on our knowing when.
28
3 March
1 PROMISE OF SAFETY
... in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice...

thy right hand upholdeth me.
Psalm 63:7-8
Safety is not the absence of danger, but the
Presence of God.
... Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and

thou shalt be saved,....

The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous,

and His ears are open unto their cry.
Psalm 34:15
Praying is to the soul what breathing is to the
body. “Pray without ceasing” (I Thes. 5:17).
8 PROMISE TO THE OVERTAKEN
... if a man be overtaken in a fault,... restore

such an one in the spirit of meekness;...
Galatians 6:1
There is a great difference between being
overtaken in a fault and deliberately sinning.
9 PROMISE FOR FAITH
So then faith cometh by hearing, and

hearing by the Word of God.
Romans 10:17
The Holy Spirit never witnesses with our spirit
outside of His Word. We should be more concerned
about hearing the Lord, than the Lord hearing us.
... but be ye transformed by the renewing of

your mind,...
31
Promises of God

The renewed mind will praise the Father that our

purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

A silent and irresponsive Heaven is a fearful
calamity to a needy soul. Heaven is still shut up to
the disobedient and the backsliding. To those who
repent the Heavens will open!

more than they that be with them.

to be like him.
19 PROMISE FOR PEACE

hypocrites! For ye are like unto whited

you another Comforter....

They [the Lord’s mercies] are new every

morning: great is thy faithfulness.

I bare you on eagles’ wings...

Exodus 19:4.
... how often would I have gathered thy

children together, even as a hen gathereth her
chickens under her wings.
Matthew 23:37
In the Old Testament you are seen on the
wings, but in the New Testament God hides us

them that walk uprightly.
Psalm 84:11
Do not be rebellious when God refuses your
requests. The thing you think you cannot live
without at the moment, may not be for your good in
the future. If you knew the future you would thank

truly “good.”

for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.

For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea
driven with the wind and tossed.

purposeless, being driven about with the wind. “All

quiet, and to do nothing rashly.

And be not drunk with wine, wherein is

Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy,

acceptable unto God,...
Romans 12:1
Many are answering the call to have Christ save
their souls but selfishly reserve their bodies for their

18 PROMISE OF WARNING
... This night thy soul shall be required of

thee....

The statutes of the Lord are... more to be

desired... Than gold, yea, than much fine gold...
Psalm 19:8, 10
Growth in the Christian life is determined by the
56
May
value one places upon the Bible. The Lord Himself

has exalted His Word above His name (Psalm

contained in a single copy of the Scriptures.
20 PROMISE FOR BOLDNESS
I will speak of Thy testimonies... and will

not be ashamed.

He that covereth his sins shall not

prosper....
Proverbs 28:13
... charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

Then Peter said, silver and gold have I

none; but such as I have give I thee....

59

They had neither “silver nor gold,” but they had

something better. They had the power of Calvary
and Pentecost.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked....

Galatians 6:7
In matters of religion how many are only
masquerading. Many love to disguise themselves
that they may participate in some new pleasure
which they could not have without the mask.

life.

And when they began to sing and to

praise, ... they (the enemy) were smitten.
II Chronicles 20:22
Jehoshaphat appointed a choir to go before the

62
June
won the battle.
7 PROMISE OF POWER
... Tarry ye... until ye be endued with power:

….
Luke 24:49
No use going without it. David had to wait for

Samuel 5:24).

the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

king's sons.

a fall. God’s table of mercy covers all infirmity.
He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth

up their wounds.
Psalm 147:3
Disease came with the fall, and sickness is a
work of the adversary. Because disease came with
the fall, God is the logical Healer. He is honored by
our acting on His Word. He watches over it to make
it good.
13 PROMISE FOR WISDOM
... ye men of Athens,...

hearts,... And be ye thankful.

23).
... For the people had a mind to work.

Nehemiah 4:6

... good measure, pressed down, and shaken

together, and running over....

will build it.
22 PROMISE OF GREAT UNDERSTANDING
He that is slow to wrath is of great

understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit
exalteth folly.

cucumber?” The center of a cucumber is always

vine.

is in the world.
1 John 4:4
“... we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but
against principalities,... powers,... the rulers of the
darkness of this world,....” (Eph.6:12). Our warfare
must be in the power of the Holy Spirit, or it will be
unavailing.
... My word... shall accomplish that which I

please,....
Isaiah 55:11
His Word went forth in creation and turned
emptiness into fruitfulness. Be assured that it will

him a well of water springing up....

deep, for the source is our God.
68
June
26 PROMISE OF THE NEW BIRTH
And you hath He quickened, who were dead

in trespasses and sins.
Ephesians 2:1
The dead have nothing in common with the
living. They are repulsive, and unfit for fellowship.

communion with God. By the new birth we are
“alive unto God.”
As an eagle stirreth up her nest... so the

Lord... did lead him...
Deuteronomy 32:11-12
The soft down of contentment is often removed
from our earthly nests so that we may spread our
wings of faith, and soar to new heights of blessing.

And they went out, and preached that men

should repent.

29 PROMISE FOR JOY
Then was our mouth filled with laughter....

appointments.

7 July
1 PROMISE FOR FAITH
Beloved, think it not strange concerning the

fiery trial which is to try you,... But rejoice,...
I Peter 4:12-13
Some Christians think it strange when they have
a fiery trial. You cannot determine the strength of a

know how strong your faith is until it is tested.
2 PROMISE TO THE HUMBLE
... He that shall humble himself shall be

exalted.
Matthew 23:12
We must humble ourselves to experience His
fullest and best. The smaller we become, the more

... be content with such things as ye have...

Hebrews 13:5
71
Promises of God
Happiness does not consist in the abundance of

things we possess, it is the appreciation of the things
we do possess. The grass is NOT always greener on
the other side of the fence.
4 PROMISE FOR FREEDOM
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye

shall be free indeed.
John 8:36
He not only will set you free from your
oppression, He will remove the chains that had you
bound so you can follow Him.
5 PROMISE FOR AN ANSWER
... and he said, I will not let Thee go, except

Thou bless me.

7 PROMISE OF THE KINGDOM
Fear not,... for it is your Father’s good

pleasure to give you the kingdom.

... Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and

pitched his tent toward Sodom.
73
Promises of God
Genesis 13:12
Those who walk by sight and not by faith will
always be influenced by appearances. Mixing with
the world often means helping the ungodly.
Whether... things present, or things to come;

all are yours.
I Corinthians 3:22
We are joint-heirs with Christ in all things. We
may have to wait to receive our full abundant
inheritance, but there is much we can claim today.

Lord in ceasing to pray for you:...
I Samuel 12:23

... in the world ye shall have tribulation: but

be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
John 16:33

troubles. We can give up, lose heart, become bitter
and complaining, or we can be of good cheer, face
them in faith, believing that our Father has a wise
purpose in it all.
15 PROMISE FOR THE BROKENHEARTED
The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a

broken heart;....
Psalm 34:18
It is a dark day when your heart is broken, but
God is there. He is nigh; call on Him. He is so nigh a
whisper will bring a response.
16 PROMISE FOR CONTENTMENT
... it pleased God by the foolishness of

preaching to save them that believe.
I Corinthians 1:21
The foolishness of preaching is not foolish
75
Promises of God
preaching.
17 PROMISE FOR CONTENTMENT
But godliness with contentment is great

gain.
I Timothy 6:6

and you will meet some rich poor folks. We all live
in one of two tents: CON-TENT or DISCON-TENT.

Enter ye in at the strait gate:....

... Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake
76
July
it, and gave to them, and said, take, eat: this is

My body.

The acts of Jesus are as significant as His words.
In observing the Lord’s Supper we are called to
remember Him as our SACRIFICE, to show forth
His death till He comes.
21 PROMISE OF SIMPLICITY
... except ye be converted, and become as

little children, ye shall not enter into the
kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 18:3
“A little child.” Not a little boy who thinks
himself a man. For many there is a big step down (or
up) into the honest simplicity of a trustful child.
22 PROMISE OF REFUGE
And let us arise, and go up to Bethel;...

Genesis 35:3
Jacob had forgotten his covenant with God; God
had not forgotten His promise to Jacob. Our gracious
God still reminds us of the place of refuge for our
troubled souls.
77
Promises of God
... that signs and wonders may be done by

the Name of Thy holy child Jesus.
Acts 4 30
Our self-sufficiency will always paralyze the
wonder-working hand of the Holy Spirit.

safety lies in the power and care of the shepherd.

out of My hand.” (John 10:27-28).
78
July
26 PROMISE OF PROTECTION
... yea, in the shadow of Thy wings will I

make my refuge,...
Psalm 57:1
The best protection in time and eternity is the
fallout shelter of “feathers.” “He shall cover thee
with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou
trust:....” (Psalm 91:4).
27 PROMISE OF JUDGMENT
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and

by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
Matthew 12:37
Does your conversation reveal that you are a
disciple of Christ? You will notice a short intellect
usually has a long tongue.
28 PROMISE CONCERNING THE SPIRIT
... the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus...

Ezra 1:1
Cold, mechanical service is an insult to the
living God. The will of God will never be done until
the spirit within us is stirred.
79
Promises of God
Love not the world, neither the things that

are in the world. If any man love the world, the
love of the Father is not in him.
I John 2:15

for God. Some folks have Heaven on their tongue,
but the world in their hand.
30 PROMISE FOR A NEW HEART
And a certain woman named Lydia,... heard

us: whose heart the Lord opened,...
Acts 16:14

fadeth not away” (I Peter 5:4).
3 PROMISE OF THE GOLDEN RULE
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would

that men should do to you, do ye even so to
81
Promises of God
them....
Matthew 7:12
This is known as the Golden Rule, but it doesn’t
work when we think it applies only to others and not
to us. The only way it can work is for everyone to
keep it.
4 PROMISE OF FRUIT
... except a corn of wheat fall into the

ground and die, it abideth alone...

By this shall all men know that ye are My

disciples, if ye have love one to another.

... they that are whole have no need of the

physician, but they that are sick...
Mark 2:17
The Pharisees, like thousands still, were not sin-
82
August
sick, but self-satisfied. The self-righteous never like

to plead their own cause before God. God will have
mercy on sick sinners.
7 PROMISE FOR LIFE
... without Me ye can do nothing.

John 15:5
Christ is the Living One, and is come that we
might have life. We never look for fruit from a dead

fruits of righteousness.

I will praise Thee....

Psalm 119:7
To this end we are created. Praise Him
continually.
9 PROMISE FOR OBEDIENCE

For ye have the poor always with you;....

These things have I spoken unto you,... that

your joy may be full.
John 15:11
The world offers men “pleasures” (Hebrews
11:25), but true joy is found only in Christ. Pleasure
depends on things and circumstances. Joy is a grace
from the Holy Spirit.
18 PROMISE FOR REST
Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are

heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Matthew 11:28
“Come” is one of the sweetest words in the

precious blood.

The more excellent way is not only to work
FOR Christ, but to work WITH Him. “... If Thy

86
August

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye

shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto
you.

There are three kinds of prayer mentioned in this
verse. Asking, seeking and knocking. Insistent
“knocking” may be required in some situations.

cent prayer.
... our God whom we serve is able to deliver

us from the burning fiery furnace....

wrath to stand up for God and what is right, His help
and blessing will be sure.

Ghost....

the sinner.

these... ye have done it unto Me.

In a practical way you demonstrate your love for
Christ by your service to His children.

... they overcame... by the blood of the

Lamb...

child of His should be more than a conqueror
(Romans 8:37).
25 PROMISE OF CONTENTMENT
... I have learned, in whatsoever state I am,

therewith to be content.
Philippians 4:11
To temper metals they must be subjected to
great heat and cooled slowly, otherwise they become
brittle. Paul had been well tempered in the furnace
of trial (Psalm 119:71).
88
August
... the Lord shewed him (Moses) a tree,

which when he had cast into the waters, the
waters were made sweet:...
Exodus 15:25
The divinely appointed remedy must be brought
into contact with the polluted and bitter waters of
life. Man has to take and apply the provided cure.

blessings.

cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

He does not at once remove the cause of every
trouble, sometimes He gives rest in the midst of the
storm.

pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall
have them.

The supply for every need is at hand. Too much
emphasis cannot be placed upon the command to
89
Promises of God

thanks.
29 PROMISE OF EXAMINATION
... all our righteousnesses are as filthy

rags;....
Isaiah 64:6
Multitudes today endeavor to make their
entrance to God dressed in the apparel of their own
so-called “good works.” Only the works of the
Savior can please the Father.
30 PROMISE FOR THE LISTENER
Take heed therefore how ye hear:....

hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches”

Thy pleasures.
Psalm 36:8

forever more (Psalm 16:11).

9 September

out His arms not only to rescue us from danger, but
to satisfy our hearts with love.
2 PROMISE OF GRACE
... My grace is sufficient for thee...

II Corinthians 12:9
It is impossible to grasp the fact that grace is
sufficient until we add the first word—MY! Now
emphasize the first and last words and God’s grace
and our need come together. MY grace is sufficient
for THEE!
... He is able... To save them to the uttermost

that come unto God by Him,...
Hebrews 7:25
93
Promises of God
Like the Egyptian enemies at the Red Sea,

problems may be pressing you today. Tomorrow
they will be overwhelmed in the deep (Romans
8:37).
For I will restore health unto thee, and I

will heal thee....

Restoration to Himself means health. There are
no wounds too deep for His healing power.
... I lay down My life,... No man taketh it

from Me,...
John 10:17-18
The voluntary death of Christ was not suicide. A
thousand times No! He died for those He came to
save. It was not a murder, nor suicide, but a blessed
SACRIFICE!

... I have appeared unto thee for this

purpose, to make thee a minister and a
witness....
Acts 26:16

gods,....

I don’t know what you think about today’s so-
called “soul music,” but real “soul music” is that
“new song” which the Lord gives us, which is
“praise unto our God.”
95
Promises of God
... make not My Father’s house an house of

merchandise.
John 2:16
To be more concerned about the forms of the
Church, than the purpose of the Holy Spirit in the
Church, is to introduce a traffic into the holy courts
that pollutes and brings dishonor upon the House
and Name of God.

ship,....

the truth comes before commitment to the task.

center begins to disintegrate, the decay of a nation is

Father! God can do without your restlessness. The
disciples waited, and the filling came.
For the Son of man is come to seek and to

save that which was lost.
Luke 19:10
It is easier to convince a “down-and-outer” of

you unto Myself.

unto me.

you suppose He sang the twenty-third Psalm, “Yea,
though I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death, I will fear no evil”?
4 PROMISE OF LOVE
But the fruit of the Spirit is love....

Galatians 5:22
There are nine beautiful graces that make up the
cluster of the “fruit of the Spirit.”
5 PROMISE OF CALAMITY
Because... ye refused;... I also will laugh at

your calamity;....

rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you,
even with a sore destruction.

Jordan?

God,....

But He was wounded for our transgressions,

He was bruised for our iniquities:....

a historical event; but actually we were all
participants in the crucifixion. Our sin was laid upon
Him.
18 PROMISE OF RICHES
So is he that layeth up treasure for himself,

and is not rich toward God.
Luke 12:21

the Lord:....

lasts! His truth stands!
27 PROMISE REGARDING SERVICE
Neglect not the gift that is in thee,....

I Timothy 4:14
God gave Moses a rod, David a sling, Samson a
jawbone, Dorcas a needle—and to each the ability to
use his gift. Are you using your talent for His glory
and the blessing of others? The Lord always gives us
what we need to do the job.
Remember Lot’s wife.

She was outside the city, but her affections were
in the city. She was with the right people but that did
not save her.
... the ruler of the feast had tasted the water
111
Promises of God
that was made wine...

John 2:9
The “best wines” of that day were not the
fermented kind, but were sweet and tasty. This was
accomplished by slowly simmering the grape juice.
“Boiling wines” were non-intoxicating. The heat
killed the bacteria and so prevented fermentation.
Our Lord, who always provides the best, made only
“good wine” (John 2:10).
30 PROMISE FOR FOLLOWING CHRIST
... If any man will come after Me, let him...

take up his cross, and follow Me.

the Lord,....

stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower
than that he can wrap himself in it.
Isaiah 28:20
People lie on all sorts of beds of religion and try
to cover sin with religious blankets that are too
narrow. Uncomfortable sleepers!
9 PROMISE FOR WISDOM
... happy are these thy servants, which stand

continually before thee, and that hear thy
wisdom.
I Kings 10:8
There are not many to whom this high honor is
conferred. Let us come for a close standing to the
King of kings.
115
Promises of God
10 PROMISE OF RESTORATION
Instead of which (shields of gold) king

Rehoboam made shields of brass,....
II Chronicles 12:10
When Rehoboam lost the pure gold what did he
do? He made shields of brass. The appearance
without the reality. Without love, we become as
sounding brass, instead of gold. Let Him restore
your soul.
11 PROMISE TO THE REPENTANT
I will arise and go to my father,....

Luke 15:18
This is the language of one whose pride had
driven him to the swine. He not only said, “I will
arise,” but he DID IT!
12 PROMISE OF THE SPIRIT
... I saw the Spirit descending from Heaven

like a dove,....
John 1:32
The same is true today, the dove-like Spirit

accompanied with the assuring voice of the Father.
116
November
13 PROMISE TO HEED
Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel;....

Genesis 49:4
Water appears in unexpected places, like
unstable souls.
Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I

might not sin against thee.
Psalm 119:11
The new morality really isn’t new. It is only the
old immorality! The new morality as well as the old
immorality are both deviations from the true
morality. “Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse
his way?....” asks the Psalmist; to which he supplies
the answer: “.,. by taking heed thereto according to
thy word.” (Psalm 119:9).
Therefore being justified by faith, we have

peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 5:1
When Christ rules your heart you will have
peace with God. Christians live in peace, others in
pieces.

Promises of God
16 PROMISE FOR BELIEVING
But Peter continued knocking: and when

they had opened the door, and saw him, they
were astonished.
Acts 12:16
Peter had a harder time getting into the prayer
meeting than he did getting out of jail. When you
pray, believe.
... the axe head fell into the water:....

II Kings 6:5
It is possible for a Christian worker to lose his
sharp edge of power for service. He becomes
helpless for effective work. You will find your lost
power at that place where you failed to depend on
the Holy Spirit, and went on in your own wisdom
and strength.
... behold, he prayeth,....

Acts 9:11
Saul had frequently said his prayers, but now he
prayed.
118
November
Neither is there salvation in any other: for

there is none other Name under Heaven given
among men, whereby we must be saved.
Acts 4:12
His Name is as a nail in a sure place; it bears all
that is hung upon it.
20 PROMISE OF ETERNAL LIFE
... Come thou and all thy house into the

ark;....
Genesis 7:1
Noah and his family obeyed the call; then “the
Lord shut him in.” So shall it be when the Son of
Man cometh—“... caught up... to meet the Lord in
the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord” (I
Thessalonians 4:17).
21 PROMISE OF GOD’S WISDOM
Through faith we understand that the worlds

were framed by the Word of God,....
Hebrews 11:3
If you look at your watch it tells you there must
have been a watch maker. When you look outside
your window and behold the tree, it tells you there
must have been a Creator. God in His wisdom made
119
Promises of God
them all!
22 PROMISE OF THANKS
O give thanks unto the Lord;....

Psalm 105:1
We need to do more “thanking” and less
thinking!
23 PROMISE TO PRAISE
I will praise Thee....

Psalm 119:7
To this end we are created. Praise Him
continually.
24 PROMISE FOR BLESSING
... Make this valley full of ditches... that

valley shall be filled with water....
II Kings 3:16-17
Ditch-digging is a very humble work; but the
deeper you dig, the larger the blessing. Prepare ye
the way. Make room for God.
25 PROMISE OF THE HARVEST
The harvest is passed, the summer is ended,

and we are not saved.
120
November
Jeremiah 8:20
For the harvest to be “not saved,” means the
crop is still in the earth. There are so many that have
not been harvested. Work while it is day.
26 PROMISE FOR THE HARVEST TIME
... The harvest truly is plenteous, but the

labourers are few.
Matthew 9:37
A plenteous harvest but a meager labor supply.
The solution is twofold, “Pray ye....” (Matthew
9:38); and “Go ye therefore,....” (Matthew 28:19).
27 PROMISE FOR BLESSING
When thou hast eaten and art full,... thou

shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land
which He hath given thee.
Deuteronomy 8:10
The sufficiency in the good land will satisfy the
soul. Let us “bless the Lord” after we have eaten and
are full. Fullness of grace makes us thankful.
But let him ask in faith, nothing

DOUBTING. (Greek)
James 1:6
121
Promises of God
To doubt what God has promised us in His

Word is one of Satan’s most effective weapons to
rob the believer of peace, healing, joy, spiritual
power, blessings and victory. Faith is from God;
doubt is from Satan.
29 PROMISE OF SPIRITUAL GIFTS
... desire spiritual gifts,....

I Corinthians 14:1
He is able and willing to make the greatest
possible use of everyone committed to His will.
Many complain of fruitlessness, when they are
imitating the gifts of others, in the place of desiring
spiritual gifts from God.
30 PROMISE OF ETERNAL LIFE
These things have I written unto you that

believe... that ye may know that you have eternal
life,....
I John 5:13
When the Lord speaks, we can depend on what
He says, for He cannot lie. It’s a wonderful thing to
have the assurance that you are bound for Heaven.
Rely on the facts, not on the feelings.
122
12 December
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist

the devil,....
James 4:7
Resist, don’t argue. Resist, don’t compromise.
Submit and resist, “He will flee from you!”
2 PROMISE FOR MERCY
The Lord taketh pleasure... in those that

hope in His mercy.
Psalm 147:11
Dare to believe that, behind a frowning
Providence, He hides a smiling face.
... Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of

the sea, like a man’s hand.
I Kings 18:44
God’s “little cloud” can cover your whole sky
and meet all your needs (Philippians 4:19).
123
Promises of God
4 PROMISE OF INSTRUCTION
As they ministered to the Lord,... the Holy

Ghost said,....
Acts 13:2
It is one thing to form plans, and then ask His
guidance; it is quite another thing to trust Him to
form the plans. If we are submissive to Him, we will
be instructed.
5 PROMISE TO THE CALL OF GOD
... How long wilt thou refuse to humble

thyself before Me?....
Exodus 10:3
Many in our own day, like Pharaoh, resist the
call of God. “My Spirit will not always strive with
man,....” (Genesis 6:3).
6 PROMISE TO THE POOR
... there is (he) that maketh himself poor, yet

hath great riches.
Proverbs 13:7
Money cannot guarantee happiness. No man is
poorer than he who has allowed earthly wealth to
become his god. God’s poor rich folks have the
enduring wealth of Heaven’s treasures.
124
December
... but the way of the wicked He turneth

upside down.
Psalm 146:9
Upside down is a complete change. “The way of
the ungodly shall perish” (Psalm 1:6)
8 PROMISE OF THE RESURRECTION
He is not here, but is risen:....

Luke 24:6
The angels remembered the words that Jesus had
spoken, while the disciples had forgotten them. It is
easy to forget what we do not really believe.
9 PROMISE OF THE HOLY GHOST
... He shall baptize you with the Holy

Ghost,....
Matthew 3:11
He is as willing to baptize the saint as to save
the sinner.
10 PROMISE TO LISTEN
He hath inclined His ear unto me....

Psalm 116:2
125
Promises of God
What a privilege to have the listening,

sympathetic ear of God.
This poor man cried, and the Lord heard

him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
Psalm 34:6
David found this to be very true by his personal
testimony. Our LORD will lend His loving ear to
your faintest call.
12 PROMISE OF GLADNESS
Serve the Lord with gladness:....

Psalm 100:2
You would almost think from the tone of some
religious meetings that we should serve the Lord
with sadness.
13 PROMISE OF SAFETY
... when I see the blood, I will pass over

you,....
Exodus 12:13
“When I,” not you, “see the blood.” Then He
assures us of our safety.
126
December
... Have faith in God.

Mark 11:22
God can be trusted to fulfill every promise He
has made.
15 PROMISE FOR THE REPENTANT
... for I am not come to call the righteous,

but sinners to repentance.
Matthew 9:13
God welcomes all who come to repent of their
sins. He refuses those who consider themselves
“righteous.” To be “self righteous” is as bad as being
“unrighteous.”
16 PROMISE OF PRAISE
... the camp of Judah ... These shall first set

forth.
Numbers 2:9
Judah means “Praise the Lord.” Praise leads the
way to God. Praise is one of the first signs of a soul
truly following the Lord.
17 PROMISE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
... how much more shall your Heavenly
127
Promises of God
Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask

Him?”
Luke 11:13
While Jesus was praying, the Holy Ghost
descended (Luke 3:21). When the disciples had
prayed, they were all filled with the Holy Ghost
(Acts 4:31).
18 PROMISE OF COMMUNION
... the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with

you.../
II Corinthians 13:14
When the Holy Spirit is with us, we will be in
fellowship with the Father and the Son.
... Occupy till I come.

Luke 19:13
We do not work for our Salvation, but after we
are saved God expects us to bring Salvation to the
lost.
20 PROMISE OF PROTECTION
Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me

under the shadow of Thy wings,....
Psalm 17:8
128
December
The strength and carefulness of God are more

than enough to save us from our “deadly enemies!”
... having made peace through the blood of

His cross....
Colossians 1:20
This is not a peace made with God, but God-
made peace! A peace which the world cannot give.
... O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou

doubt?
Matthew 14:31
When things are going against us and the very
foundations seem to be crumbling, how prone we are
to forget that our Savior has promised; “... I will
never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” (Hebrews 13:5)
23 PROMISE OF THE SAVIOR
... and thou shalt call His name JESUS: for

He shall save His people from their sins.
Matthew 1:21
As our Savior He saves us from sin, from self
(Galatians 2:20), and from the evil world (Galatians
1:4).
129
Promises of God
... I would thou wert cold or hot.

Revelation 3:15
A little girl came home from Sunday school, and
her mother asked her to recite the text she had
learned: “Many are called but few are chosen.” It
came out like this: “Many are cold and few are
frozen!”
25 PROMISE FOR CHRISTMAS
And when they were come into the house,

they... worshipped Him: —and... presented...
Him gifts.
Matthew 2:11
Let this day be “glorifying and praising God.”
Our Savior is worthy indeed. Your greatest
possession is your life. Have you yielded it to the
Savior. Lay all your talents and ambitions at His
feet. They who truly worship Christ will express
their adoration by giving themselves.
26 PROMISE OF UNDERSTANDING
I am Alpha and Omega....

Revelation 1:8
Alpha and Omega are the first and last letters of
130
December
the Greek alphabet. The Lord Jesus is God’s

alphabet. He is the first and final source of
knowledge, understanding and wisdom.
27 PROMISE TO THE WEARY
The eternal God is thy refuge, and

underneath are the everlasting arms: and He
shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and
shall say, Destroy them.
Deuteronomy 33:27
His arms are everlasting, outstretched and
inviting to the weary, much-worn saint. Always,
always under thee to catch and thee to bear.
I am the door: by Me if any man enter in, he

shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find
pasture.
John 10:9
IN for salvation, worship and renewal; OUT for
service, work and revival.
29 PROMISE OF REFUGE
Like as a father pitieth his children, so the

Lord pitieth them that fear Him.
Psalm 103:13
131
Promises of God
A little child oppressed by strange alarms, runs

swift and straight to father’s side. So we, too, throw
our troubled selves upon our Father. We cling, and
trust in the Lord.
... Surely I come quickly. Amen....

Revelation 22:20
Three times in this closing chapter of the Bible,
the Lord breaks in to remind us that He is coming
quickly. It is only two days to Him (II Peter 3:8).
Your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion,

walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Whom resist stedfast in the faith.
I Peter 4:8-9
When we use our faith and authority saying,
“Devil, in the Name of Jesus who lives in my heart, I
resist you!” he must flee.
