March 16 Devotion - God is faithful to His promises


A global pandemic is upon us, the Corona Virus COVID-19. At times like these we may panic, be worried and afraid. While these are normal human being responses for all, what would be an empowering paradigm and attitude for us believers; the followers of Jesus Christ; to adopt?


Let us seize and hold fast and retain without wavering the hope we cherish and confess and our acknowledgement of it, for He Who promised is reliable (sure) and faithful to His word.
لنتمسك باقرار الرجاء راسخا لان الذي وعد هو امين.
Hebrews 10:23 AMP


Let’s focus on God’s grace and unconditional love and on His power and ability to control all circumstances.
Let us focus on His always-listening ear and His always-watchful eye. I believe that when we keep focusing on God, our thoughts about our problems diminish and our hope increases. Let us remember God’s encouraging and reassuring promise:

‘Do not fear [anything], for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, be assured I will help you; I will certainly take hold of you with My righteous right hand [a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation].’
 لَا تَخَفْ لأَنِّي مَعَكَ. لَا تَتَلَفَّتْ حَوْلَكَ جَزَعاً، لأَنِّي إِلَهُكَ، أُشَدِّدُكَ وَأُعِينُكَ وَأَعْضُدُكَ بِيَمِينِ بِرِّي

Isaiah 41:10


I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba Father, thank You God that You are trustworthy in all Your promises and faithful to me in all You do. Psalm 145:13 I thank You that You are a reliable and trustworthy God and You promised that You will never leave me nor forsake me, and I know that You are faithful. LORD, I pray that out of Your glorious riches You strengthen me with power through Your Spirit in my inner being, so that I can concentrate on You, Your promises, and Your strength. Thank You Father God for Your deep and everlasting love for me, Your abundant blessings, and for the riches of Your grace in my life. In the mighty name of Jesus; my Lord and Saviour; The King of kings and Lord of lords, in The Holy Name of Your only begotten Son Jesus, I pray to You Father. To Jesus be the power, the glory, the majesty and the dominion forever and ever and unto ages of all ages. Amen.

Jesus loves you
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
