Inflexible

Here's a paraphrase of Hebrews 10:23 from Chris Gore, speaking at Bethel Church earlier this month:

"Let us come into agreement with God and begin to speak what He says, tightly wrapping our arms around the promise we are confessing, embracing it with all our might, holding tightly onto it, rejecting all attempts of anyone who tries to steal it from us, not allowing ourselves to be fickle in our commitment, but determined to be inflexible and unmoving from that which we believe and we confess."

All of God's promises are "yes" and "amen" in Christ. (2 Corinthians 1:20). Find the promises God is speaking into your life and your situation. Grab onto them! Hold on tight! Be inflexible, unwavering, immovable in your determination to see them manifested according to the will of God. Here are some promises you may need to latch onto today --

"Call to Me in the day of trouble, and I will deliver you." -- Psalm 50:15

"The Lord your God in your midst is mighty to save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing." -- Zephaniah 3:17

"I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants." -- Isaiah 44:3

"I will restore health to you and I will heal you of all your wounds." -- Jeremiah 30:17

"And my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." -- Philippians 4:19

"He has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires." -- 2 Peter 1:4
