From the time we are young, we often learn that it is important to keep promises. We don't want to promise things we cannot do and we need to keep our commitments. When we think of promises, we can remember God's promises and the covenant represented by the rainbow!
After the flood that covered the entire earth, God made a covenant that He would never flood the entire earth again. Noah and his family received this covenant on our behalf and we are reminded that God is always faithful. God will keep His promises and honor His covenants. We can be inspired by God's faithfulness to us and honor Him by committing our lives to Him. Once we make promises to God, we need to try our best to keep them!
Hear God's promises and commit to serving Him!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for all of Your promises and the covenants that You have made since the beginning of time. Help me to commit to You and continually honor and serve You. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
