Paul today in 2 Corinthians is talking about his struggles to return and see his friends.  He told the folks in Corinth that he would be back through, that he would be able to share with them teaching and fellowship.

And it didn’t happen.

Why?

Did he not keep his word? Was he just lying? Did he not intend to do it?

No, something just happened that kept him from doing what he wanted to do. We’ve all been there, huh?  When what we want to do just can’t take place.  And since Paul was unable to do what he wanted to do, he began to talk about how God isn’t like that.

God’s “yeses” are always yes. God’s word is always true. God’s promises are always kept.

Listen to what Paul says in verse 20:

For all of God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen” (which means “Yes”) ascends to God for his glory.

God’s promises are already fulfilled. God has already done what He said He would do. It’s done.  It’s taken care of.  You can trust.

You can trust God to do what He said He would do. You can trust God to keep His promises.  You can trust God to keep His word.

He will be faithful.  Others may not.  Others may not kept keep their promises.

God will.

Today, you can trust. It’s taken care of.  You have no worries.  You can trust.

God will be true to each of the promises in His word.

Relax.  Trust.  He is faithful and true.

It’s already taken care of.
