“Review the past for me; let us argue the matter together.” Isaiah 43:26 NIV

My brother-in-law loves Psalms. Every morning before sunset, he goes to his prayer room and spends time with His Heavenly Father. He begins his day thanking the Lord for His love, goodness, and faithfulness. Then, he reminds the Lord of His promises. I couldn’t understand why we needed to remind our Father of His promises for years.

But, today, the Lord reminded me how much He loves for His children to remind him of all his promises. 

In Isaiah 43:26, the Lord said to Isaiah, “Review the past for me, let us argue the matter together.”

God invites you and me to remind him of his promises. How do we do that? It’s simple. We need to spend time reading his Word and meditate on it. Then, when we know his Word, we can faithfully come to our Heavenly Father and say, “Lord, you said….”

Here are some promises that have helped throughout my walk with Jesus.

“Lord, you said you would walk me through the waters.” (Isaiah 43:2)

“Lord, you said you would lead me through the valley.” (Psalm 23:4)

“Lord, you said you would never leave me or forsake me.” (Hebrews 13:5)

“Lord, you said if I believe in the Lord Jesus, my household (family) and I will be saved.” (Acts 16:31)

“Lord, you said you would cause all things to work together for my good.” (Romans 8:28)

When things appear to go wrong in my life and life storms overwhelm my soul, I remind my Father of all his promises. One promise I keep going back to is Roman 8:28.

This promise reminds me of how the Lord took a very bad situation in my life and turned it around. He restored all the broken pieces and made me whole.

When we pray in faith we touch our Heavenly Father’s heart and miracles will start to happen. You may not get your answers overnight but trust me when I tell you that it will come, and you will overcome.

Friends, I don’t know what season you’re in right now-but be encouraged; our Heavenly Father wants us to remind Him of His promises. Find a promise that fits your current situation and build your prayers around it. Remind our Lord of His promises.

Father, thank you for your Word, faithfulness, and unconditional love. Lord, thank you for being a constant in my life and faithful to your promises. In Jesus’ name, amen!

I have often asked the Lord if writing is His calling in my life; after all, I'm a teacher, not a writer. Through the Book of Luke, in the New Testament, the Lord taught me that Luke had no idea that his study would ever impact our life. He wrote for the One, his friend, Theophilus. Yet, God used Luke, a doctor, to share the truth about Who Jesus was and why He came. So, why do I write? I write to share the truth of who Jesus is and what He has done in my life.
