Yes And Amen


Have you thought about the fact that God has already said “yes” to His promises in your life? The bible says, “For all the promises of God in Him are Yes.” This means you don’t have to beg God to be good to you. You don’t have to plead with Him to help you. God wants to help you. He wants to pour out His abundant blessing on your life.

The whole verse says that God’s promises are “yes and amen.” Amen means “so be it.” In other words, it’s a done deal. All you have to do is make sure you are living up to your end of the bargain. See, God’s love is unconditional, but we have to obey His commands in order to see His promises come to pass.

Like with your children, no matter how much you have to give them, if they aren’t managing well what you already entrusted to them then you would wait to see them become more mature and responsible before granting them any more.

The good news though is that when we surrender our hearts to Him, He empowers us to fulfill every one of His commands. He equips us for every good work because just like you do with your children, He wants to see us live a blessed life. And that’s why His promises are “yes” and “amen”!
