Description

People promise a lot and deliver little, so it is fair to wonder whether God's promises will hold up any better. God's promises rest on his grace and are received by faith, not earned by keeping rules. He kept his word to Abraham across generations all the way to Jesus, and he can keep his word to you. In this sermon, Pastor Kaloma Smith of UAMEZ Church in Palo Alto, California preaches on Romans 4:13-17 and shows why you can't earn what God has already promised. Questions this sermon answers Can you trust God's promises? Yes, because they are based on God's goodness and not on your ability. Why don't God's promises come true right away? God makes his promises specific, but he keeps them on his own timeline, the way he did with Abraham. How do God's promises work? They come by grace and are received through faith, just as the promise to Abraham came through faith and not through the law. What did God promise Abraham? He promised Abram land and more descendants than anyone could count.
