10 Promises to be thankful for

 1. A lily-white page (forgiveness of the past)
Psalm 32:1-2 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit.

2. The Gift of Eternal Life
Romans 6:23 ….the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

3. Forgiveness (for the present)
1 John 1:7-9 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1 John 2:1 My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

4. Acceptance (No condemnation)
Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus....

5. Power of God unto salvation
Romans 1:16-17 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes… For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”

6. Guidance
Psalm 32:8
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.

7. Help With Finances
Malachi 3:10
Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this,” Says the Lord of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.

8. Solutions To Problems
Philippians 4:19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
Romans 8:32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

9. Salvation of Others
Isaiah 49:24-25 Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, Or the captives of the righteous be delivered? But thus says the Lord: “Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, And the prey of the terrible be delivered; For I will contend with him who contends with you, And I will save your children.

10. Promise of being received to glory (heaven)
Psalm 73:24 You will guide me with Your counsel, And afterward receive me to glory.
