God's promises are true.
He has a perfect track record, and His resume is impeccable. But do we live like His promises are true for us, personally?
How is our prayer life impacted by whether or not we really, truly believe that everything God has promised to His people, He will deliver on?
Let's take an honest look at this issue & let's choose to believe that God's promises are true for us...because they are!
