A Summary of God’s Promises by guest blogger Charles Spurgeon
ESV Hebrews 13:5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
No promise is of private interpretation. Whatever God has said to any one saint, He has said to all. When He opens a well for one, it is that all may drink. When He opens a granary-door to give out food, there may be one starving man whose reason its being opened, but all hungry saints may come and feed too. Whether He gave the Word to Abraham or Moses, matters not. He has given it to you as one of the covenanted seed. There is not a brook of living water of which you may not drink. If the land flows with milk and honey, eat the honey and drink the milk, for both are yours. Be bold and believe, for He said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” In this promise God gives everything to His people. Then no attribute of God can cease to be engaged for us. He will show himself strong on behalf of them that trust Him. With lovingkindness He will have mercy on us. To summarize, there is nothing you can want, ask for or need in time or eternity, which is not contained in this text, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
