A promise is something that God gives his people and these promises are what God gives to not just bless us but to show you there should be something you should be looking forward to, no matter the situations you have and upon that as it is a test of faith when before or even when it is time to receive it. By before I mean that it takes a great level of faithfulness towards God’s promises because it’s not relying only on knowing; you have to remember that God promises more, like keeping receipts as proof of purchase. This will let you know that when an opportunity arises, God will direct you each step of the way.


By the arrival to action, the promise given, take it as a race and remember that you are

Already the champion, but champions work hard, meaning they’re in a continuous run until

The finish line.


However, I will tell you that even before the action of the promises and the arrival time to

Action the promise, work is involved in both scenarios, and it involves obedience to his

Commandments, following them through to the end, and faithfulness to Him.

Although you may have the receipt in mind, that is even an opportunity for the enemy to

Obstruct you. So, therefore, here are the byte-sized thoughts to arm yourselves in all

Situations, even times of being attacked:


  • Knowledge and Wisdom


Proverbs 9:10

“Fear of the lord is the foundation of wisdom. Knowledge of the Holy One results in good Judgement.”


Arm yourselves with knowledge for the enemy is very wise and you have to be

Being knowledgeable on what is true or false will help as well as being able to like out a

Righteous and blameless life God wants to see you have out of all most in knowing Jesus

And understanding who and what he has done for us.


  • The Armor of God


Ephesians 6:10-11

A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s Armor so That you will be able to stand firm against all strategies


As you delve deeper into your spiritual walk with Jesus, you need to get to know that

There are authorities of the unseen world that are present and understand that God has

Equipped you with his life-giving spirit, to the truth and so you will know the amour in

Ephesians 6: 9 -16.


  • Character


Ephesians 5:1

Imitate God, therefore, everything you do because you are his dear children.”


Let’s understand that God is Holy, meaning set apart, remember that when you keep

Your eyes focused on Jesus and, let God’s spirit work in you during the process of

Sanctification. Additionally, meditation on the Word can help you discern and build up

Your integrity, as well as godliness.


1 Peter 4:8

Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins.


1 Peter 2:1

So get rid of all behaviour, Be done with deceit, hypocrisy, jealousy and all unkind speech



  • Maintenance



2 Peter 1:10

“So, dear brothers and sisters, work hard to prove that you are among those God has Called and chosen. Do these things, and you will never fall away.”


2 Peter 1:10

“So, dear brothers and sisters, work hard to prove that you are among those God has Called and chosen. Do these things, and you will never fall away.”


Just like any house or job, you have to “work hard” to be able to maintain what you may. Otherwise, you might lose your job or have a messy house.


Therefore I would conclude out of all the points that I have shared the most important

A fundamental aspect of Faith, believing that whatever it is that you are doing it is towards a

Promise and being fuelled up by the hope of it happening.
