THE FAITHFUL PROMISER
31 day devotional
By John MacDuff
"He has given us His very great and precious promises!" — 2 Peter 1:4
"He who has promised is faithful." — Hebrews 10:23
It has often been felt a delightful exercise by the child of God, to take, night by night, an individual promise and plead it at the mercy-seat. Often are our prayers pointless, from not following, in this respect, the example of the sweet Psalmist of Israel, the royal promise-pleader, who delighted to direct his finger to some particular "word" of the Faithful Promiser, saying, "Remember Your promise unto Your servant, upon which you have caused me to hope." — Psalm 119:49
The following are a few gleanings from the Promise Treasury — a few "crumbs from the Master's Table," which may serve to help the thoughts in the hour of closet meditation, or the season of sorrow.
