– a faith and knowledge resting on the hope of
eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of
time, Titus 1.2
Paul is talking to Titus about faith and knowledge – the
faith of God’s elect and the knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness.
This faith and knowledge rests on the hope of eternal life which God promised
even before time itself.
Paul reminds Titus of this promise, making it quite clear
that God does not lie.
This is a reminder that, perhaps, I need to refresh from
time to time: God does not lie.
The Word of God is full of promises which stand for me, and
for all who would believe. God has promised and God does not lie.
I believe God has given me, both directly and through the words
of others, certain undertakings and promises for my own edification and
blessing. God has promised these things and God does not lie.
I take hold, I receive anew, everything that God has
promised me. I rejoice and I give thanks.
Lord God,
I give You thanks
today for this reminder of Your many glorious promises and Your word of
faithfulness and truth. You have promised, Lord, and You do not lie.
I thank You. I
rejoice. I exalt You and I marvel at who I am in You.
I receive anew every
promise that is in Your Word for me. I take again each and every personal
promise You have made to me in every way. I look to go forward in Your
promises. I believe in the fulfilment of Your promises to me, each and every
one of them.
Lead me, precious
Saviour. In power let me minister in You, receiving the outworking of every
promise, each in its due time and season.
My love for You
overflows.
O Lord, lead me on.
Hallelujah! I praise Your Name. Amen.
