How to Access God’s Promises

How to Access God’s Promises

John 1:12     Deuteronomy 29:10-29 
Pastor Terry Wilcox

Sad is the day for any man when he becomes absolutely satisfied with the life that he is leading. the thoughts that he is thinking, and the deeds he is doing.  Then there ceases to be a desire to do something greater for God than ever before.

-Phillips Brooks

For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God.

2 Corinthians 1:20

Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.

Deuteronomy 7:9

Two Great Reasons to Partner with God

1.  That you be  as His people – Deuteronomy 29:13 
2. For the sake of   – Deuteronomy 29:14-29

Two Reasons We Live Below Our Privileges

1. We don’t  and  God’s promises – John 1:12

   Often we believe He kept his word back then, or with someone else.  But and  is another matter altogether.

   I’ve known many Christians who can quote verses and continue to live below their privileges because they fail to (receive) the promises.

2. We don’t  with the .

…and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him. And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.

I John 3:22-23

Never try to explain God until you’ve obeyed him.  The only bit of God that we understand is the bit that we have obeyed.

-Oswald Chamber

There is no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.
