The Story of (Your) Life // The Story of God's Faithfulness

Kyle Kauffman | June 25 2023 God makes and keeps promises. That reality alone should amaze us. But here’s the even more amazing part: God makes and keeps promises to sinners. God shows us that a relationship with him is not built, earned, or enabled by our obedience and efforts. Rather the gift of his presence and blessing in our life is rooted in his promises. We see in Genesis 9-10 that the story God writes is one where he binds himself to his people with promises through covenants. God shows that the way he will rescue the world and turn it into paradise again is through making and keeping his promises. His promises call us to respond with grateful trust, love, and obedience. Yet we find that God continues to keep his promises even as we fail to trust, love, and obey him over and over again.
