12 encouraging promises & why they matter.

A small notebook that reads "Come to me, all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest.

Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up. (Proverbs 12:25 NLT)

Stay humble and know God cares for you. (Psalm 138:6)

Gentle words inspire, so be gentle with your thoughts about yourself. (Proverbs 15:4)

God’s thoughts about you are valuable and too many to count. (Psalm 139:17)

You do not fear the morning, afternoon, or evening news reports. (Psalm 112:7a)

You can have the assurance that God’s attention is on you. (Psalm 112:7b)

God’s Word is a guide for you. (Psalm 119:105, 48:14, 32:8)

God has rest for you. (Psalm 127:2b)

God is yours, forever. (Psalm 48:14)

You have strength and courage when your hope lives in God. (Psalm 31:24)

When no one else can hear you, God does and responds. (Psalm 31:22)

God is protecting you. (Psalm 3:3)

God has made you strong. (Psalm 148:14)

Cubes spelling out thank you.

God, Thank you for guiding, protecting, hearing, seeing, caring, and thinking about me. I am undone, realizing your care for me. Multiple ways you pour goodness into my life, and I fail you daily. My words and actions so easily fall short, yet, your Word stands, encouraging and humbling me. Thank you. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

It is your turn!

Encourage someone and see their outlook change! (Psalm 12:25) Did this post encourage you or lightened your load? If it did, share it with someone you know. Thank you!

What promise speaks to your heart? Please share it in the comments.

Until next week, keep Walking on Mustard Seeds!
