The LORD visited Sarah as he had said

Daily Light Devotions - April 24 - Morning

The LORD visited Sarah as he had said ...

The LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had promised. 1

Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. Selah 2

And David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because all the people were bitter in soul, each for his sons and daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God. 3

And Joseph said to his brothers, "I am about to die, but God will visit you and bring you up out of this land to the land that he swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob." 4

I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their groaning, and I have come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send you to Egypt.' This man led them out, performing wonders and signs in Egypt and at the Red Sea and in the wilderness for forty years. 5

Not one word of all the good promises that the LORD had made to the house of Israel had failed; all came to pass. 6

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. 7

God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it? 8

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. 9

The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever. 10
