His Promise for You
Romans 1:2: Which He promised before through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures.
The gospel is not brand new. It was promised by His prophets all the way through the Old Testament. It is a message that God loves mankind and that God presents a way of saving mankind. It brings us into a love relationship. He loves us and gave Himself for us. How wonderful! 1
The salvation we enjoy today was promised by the prophets, though they did not fully understand all that they were preaching and writing (1 Peter 1:10–12). 2
Application
- Read Romans 5:1-5
- What is the promise of hope for you, from these Holy Scriptures?
Prayer
Help me Lord, to treasure Your promises in my mind and heart today.
