[Devotional] IN HIS PRESENCE: Increase comes from God

[Devotional] IN HIS PRESENCE: He is the promise keeper

READ: PSALM 37:1-6 

MEDITATION VERSE  

“Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart”  (Psalm 37:4).  

The bible says that God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. He may  not show up when you think He should, but He will show up in His own time.  And His time is the right time. He always keeps His promise. Once He has  promised, it is as good as done. 1 Kings 8:56 says “there hath not failed one word  of all His good promise”. Psalm 119:89 says, “forever o Lord, Thy word is settled 

in heaven”. Isaiah 40:8 says. “the word of God shall stand forever”. Isaiah 55:10- 11 says that God’s word shall not return to Him void but shall accomplish what  He pleases and shall prosper in the things for which He sent it. 

What has God promised you in His word? He promised to be with you always.  He promised to help you. He promised to heal all your diseases and deliver your  life from destruction. He promised to lift you up and prosper the works of your  hands. He promised to give you the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. 

He promised to teach your children and give them peace. He promised to satisfy  you with long life. “God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that  He should repent. Has He said and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He  not make it good? (Numbers 23:19).  

You can always count on His word, but you have a part to play. And that part is  faith. Faith is “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not  seen” (Hebrews 11:1). And “without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he  who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those  who diligently seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6). Just because you cannot see it, does  not mean He won’t do it. Learn to live by faith.
