• “We say, then, to anyone who is under trial, give Him time to steep the soul in His eternal truth. Go into the open air, look up into the depths of the sky, or out upon the wideness of the sea, or on the strength of the hills that is His also; or, if bound in the body, go forth in the spirit; spirit is not bound. Give Him time and, as surely as dawn follows night, there will break upon the heart a sense of certainty that cannot be shaken.” – Amy Carmichael

Prayers and Promises for Everyday by Corrie ten Boom

Jesus Christ … isn’t one to say ‘yes’ when he means ‘no’.
He always does exactly what he says.He carries out and fulfils all of God’s promises,
no matter how many of them there are.(2 Cor. 1:19, 20).
How often we cry out to God in times of crisis, small or great, and wish we could hear
His voice answering us, assuring us of his help and presence!
The Bible is full of such cries for help from men and women just like us.Praise God
that his Word is also filled with His answers!He gives us sure promises which fit
every situation in our lives.In this book of daily readings, individual prayers are
coupled with appropriate promises from God in such a way that as we read them, we
can apply them to our own circumstances, claiming them, “standing on” them,
hearing God’s voice to us in them.
Along with these Prayers and Promises from The Living Bible we have included
excerpts from Corrie ten Boom’s writings which demonstrate God’s supernatural
answers to human needs and show how Miss ten Boom was able to apply His
promises in her own life and ministry.She explains:“The Bible is a cheque book.
When you said “yes” to Jesus Christ, many promises were deposited to your credit at
that very moment, and they were signed by the Lord Jesus Himself.But now you
have to cash your cheques in order to profit by them.When you come upon such a
promise and say, “Thank you, Lord, I accept this,” then you have cashed a cheque,
and that very day you’ll be richer than you were the day before,”We encourage you
to begin today to enrich your life with God’s words of promise!

  • “They only did what God permitted them to do, which enabled me always to keep God in sight… When we suffer, we should always remember that God inflicts the blow. Wicked men, it is true, are not infrequently His instruments; and the fact does not diminish, but simply develops their wickedness. But when we are so mentally disposed that we love the strokes we suffer, regarding them as coming from God, and as expressions of what He sees best for us, we are then in the proper state to look forgivingly and kindly upon the subordinate instrument which He permits to smite us.” – Madame Guyon

[Meditate on These Things] Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. — Philippians 4:8 (NKJV)
