Pondering God's Promises
Saturday Scripture writing & reading
Happy SaTuRdAy!
My week was semi-productive… I suppose I have all the necessary things done, but could I have done more? Of course! I’m starting to get that urge for Spring Cleaning… does that happen to you before spring actually gets here? haha
One thing I definitely need to get busy with is planning my gardening season. I always try to keep things simple… but definitely planting more pickle bush cucumbers this year. Loved growing & eating those so much last year!
Yesterday, I opened up my CWM Printable Club page… there are some fun hearts to color and Valentine stuff to fill your day with some creative joy… take a peek!
This week’s topic for Scripture writing, reading, study and meditation is on Pondering God’s Promises.
10 KJV Bible Verses - Pondering on God’s Promises
1. Promises of God’s Presence
God is with us. We are not alone.
Hebrews 13:5 – “Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.”
Isaiah 41:10 – “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
These are great Bible verses to lean on if you carry responsibility such as a teacher, ministry leader, mother, caregiver, etc. The promise isn’t absence of difficulty… it’s God’s presence in it.
2. Promises of Provision
God supplies what we truly need.
Philippians 4:19 – “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
Psalm 37:4–5 – “Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.”
Provision isn’t always flashy — sometimes it’s quiet daily grace. But it’s steady.
3. Promises of Peace
Jesus calms our troubled hearts.
John 14:27 – “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
This Bible verse is so good to quote during the nighttime if you’re wide awake from worries. (*See my post 10 Bible Verses to Help You Sleep More Peacefully)
4. Promises of Forgiveness & Cleansing
God is faithful in forgiving.
1 John 1:9 – “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
This one feels tender and freeing…we can know our guilt can be completely released with confidence because God is faithful to forgive when we confess our sins.
5. Promises of Guidance & Wisdom
God directs and gives understanding.
James 1:5 – “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.”
God is willing to load us abundantly with wisdom — just ask! Wisdom for decisions. Wisdom for leadership. Wisdom for family matters.
6. Promises of Strength & Help in Temptation
God equips us to endure.
1 Corinthians 10:13 – “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”
Romans 8:28 – “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
Philippians 4:13 — “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”
These Bible verses remind us that God gives us sufficient strength to handle life’s circumstances, and He’s ever working behind the scenes even when we don’t see it.
