The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing. ––Zephaniah 3:17

Our computer-like mind can only operate with the software that has been written and that we choose to activate. That’s why it’s critical that we load our hard drives with excellent data, while keeping out the spam and viruses. One of the most powerful ways to load our systems is to look at God’s amazing promises to us.

First, God wants to heal your broken heart—the wound that’s been wounded by simply being born and raised in this broken world. Ezekiel 26:36 it says, “I will give you a new heart, I will put a new spirit in you, I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.”

Second, the Holy Spirit wants to move us to greater obedience to God. Ezekiel 26:27 says, “I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws.” There’s that picture of guidance.

Third, the Holy Spirit is in us and wants to remind us of what God has asked us to do. Jesus said, “But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you” (John 14:26, NLT).

Finally, the Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth and teach you. John 16:13 tells us, “But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.”

Do you think God would hold anything back from us? And there are 7,000 promises in the Bible—this is only four!
