Praise In the Presence of GodSample
A Promised Promise
The writer to the Hebrews explains how God’s promise to bless His people includes both His promise and His oath; “that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie” we might find hope.
God underwrites His own “fail-safe” provision. He has promised, and then He sealed His promise with an oath, essentially saying, “I promise to keep my promise.” God didn’t need to reinforce His promise, because it is impossible for Him to lie in the first place! And yet, in His gentle understanding of our fears and fragility of faith, He declared these words of absolute, unshakable assurance.
What love, patience, and grace.

About this Plan
Pastor Jack Hayford points the way to the life-changing pathway of praise. No matter how you feel, praise will shape what your experiences will become. When doubts come, praise God that His Word will never fail you. When fears taunt, praise God that His presence never leaves you. When questions arise, praise God that His wisdom holds every answer. Praise leads you to the One who assures peace beyond strife, hope beyond trial, joy beyond sorrow, and life beyond all.
