February 2 – I PROMISE


(Jesus has always been absolute truth) because His life made every promise of God – all of them – become reality. He is the “yes” of God; the genuine truth. So, now we can say a confident, “Amen.” – so be it – through our faith in Christ, and He is glorified as He acts through us. (2 Corinthians 1:20)

                When did you last break a promise you made to someone? Sometimes, you make promises consciously. Sometimes, others read your actions, misunderstand, and you may create a promise that you did not intend.

                Paul is addressing people who feel he has broken his promise to them. He takes great care to explain and be clear about the circumstances – saying finally, “We represent Christ Jesus who is truth. We don’t make promises like others who never intend to be held accountable.” If the Lord is to act in and through your life in a way that your actions are true; a way that Jesus will be glorified, you must be serious and clear about your promises, and then follow through.

                Guard your words. Guard your actions. Be intentional. Be serious. Most importantly, be Spirit-led so that Christ’s “yes” will mark your life.
