There hath not failed one word of all his good promise. 1 Kings 8:66
Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises. 2 Peter 1:4
KI 8:66{PE 1:4{Unclaimed promises are like uncashed checks; they will keep us from bankruptcy, but not from want. But if not, why not? What right have we to pick out one of His faithful sayings, and say we don't expect Him to fulfill that? What defense can we bring, what excuse can we invent, for so doing? If you appeal to experience against His faithfulness to His word, I will appeal to experience too, and ask you, Did you ever really trust Jesus to fulfill any word of His to you, and find your trust deceived? Whatever you did really trust Him to keep, He has kept; and the unkept things were never really entrusted. Scrutinize this past experience as you will, and it will only bear witness against your unfaithfulness, never against His absolute faithfulness.
Master, I set my seal that Thou art true,
Of Thy good promise not one thing hath failed!
And I would send a ringing challenge forth,
To all who know Thy name, to tell it out,
Thy faithfulness to every written word,
Thy lovingkindness crowning all the days—
To say and sing with me: "The Lord is good,
His mercy is forever, and His truth
Is written on each page of all my life!”
