  LIVING  Psalm 30:1-12 Devotional:- “What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your truth?” (V.9) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional LIVING Support Us Psalm 30:1-12 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Until a man appreciates his life, things may not appreciate in his hand. Until we start to see our life as our opportunity, we will not be able to maximise it for God’s glory. Most people today do not see anything important about their life. They see living as an unfortunate event. They believe that since they were not there to choose their coming into life, and so blame their creator for creating them. As we read in the word of God today, David saw the importance of his life. He then used it to challenge God to help him.         ...

EMPTY PROMISES

EMPTY PROMISES        

Matthew 5:23-37
Devotional Verse:- “But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne” (Vs. 34).

     Many people make promises but lack the ability to fulfill them. Some promises had better not be put to heart because the maker might fail to take the responsibility of fulfilling them. Making promises without fulfilling them should not be the lifestyle of any citizen of the kingdom of God (Eccl 5:5).


     In today’s Scripture, Jesus teaches us to stop making empty promises; insisting that there is no need to swear any oath as a child of God (Deuteronomy 23:22). The Bible says that we must let our ‘yes be yes’ and our ‘no be no’ (Matthew 5:37). Jesus also said that making empty promises is the practice of the evil one which is ungodly.
 
    Whenever we are faced with legal issues that demand swearing with the Bible, God expects us to say what we mean and mean what we say. Don’t promise what you can’t do because it will put you in bond age (Proverbs 22:26-27). You are not living to please anyone but God (1 Thessalonians 2:4). Always be sincere with yourself. It is only by doing this that you will find peace and integrity. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me not to just swear but to always say the truth 
 
“MAKING EMPTY PROMISES IS AN UNGODLY ACT”.
