2 Peter 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
God’s exceeding great and precious promises are as sure as if they were fulfilled.
Oh how sweet to be partakers of His divine nature.
Search out the promises of God and stand firm on them.
Standing On The Promises
______________________________
Standing on the promises of Christ my King, — Through eternal ages let His praises ring, — Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing, — Standing on the promises of God.
CHORUS:
Standing, standing, — Standing on the promises of God my Savior; — Standing, standing, — I’m standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises that cannot fail, — When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail, — By the living Word of God I shall prevail, — Standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises I now can see — Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me; — Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free, — Standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord, — Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord, — Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword, — Standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises I cannot fall, — List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call, — Resting in my Savior as my all in all, — Standing on the promises of God.
