Luke 21:26

Promises! Who doesn't want certainty? We CAN depend on God! It has been said there are around 1600 promises in the Old and New Testaments. The following verses can help you draw near to the Lord and rest. God's word has promises you want in your heart regarding dating, anger, hope, money, trust, suffering, and even sex. Stop relying on empty promises people make. Lean on God's promises.

How should we respond when our security and sense of stability are threatened? Skip Heitzig examines Psalm 46 to give a God-centered view of how we can rest in the Lord and His promise to give us peace in the midst of uncertainty. This five-day devotional underscores the truth of these words: "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble" (Psalm 46:1).

Although Jesus told us in this world we would find trouble, He also offered us ways to overcome in overwhelming times. He taught His followers what I like to call 5 Steps for Overcomers—look within, look to Him, look ahead, look out, and look up. Looking in each of these directions will help us to overcome our everyday challenges, and help us to encourage others to do the same.

Jesus said in the end of days, the times would be so traumatic and perilous that many people’s hearts would fail them because of fear. In this 5-day reading plan, Rick Renner teaches you practical steps from the Bible that will give you the tools needed to build a solid foundation by which you can maintain and enjoy a peaceful mind when everything around you is falling apart.
