PROOF THAT GOD’S PROMISES
FOR YOU WILL BE FULFILLED
2Corinthians 1:20
For no matter how many promises
God has made, they are "Yes" in
Christ. And so through him the
"Amen" is spoken by us to the glory
of God.

6. FIRST GREAT PROMISE:
The promise of strength in all your
trials and endeavors especially in
doing God’s will
Philippians 4:13
(AMP) I have strength for all things in Christ
Who empowers me [I am ready for anything
and equal to anything through Him Who
infuses inner strength into me; I am self-
sufficient in Christ's sufficiency].

7. • (KJV) I can do all things through Christ
which strengtheneth me.
• (TPV) Ang lahat ng ito’y magagawa ko
dahil sa lakas nakaloob sa akin ni Cristo.
• (NJB) There is nothing I cannot do in the
One who strengthens me.
• (YLT) For all things I have strength, in
Christ's strengthening me;

8. SECOND GREAT PROMISE:
THE PROMISE OF HIS GRACE
TO HAVE HIS POWER WHEN
WEAK
• 2Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My
grace is sufficient for you, for my power is
made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will
boast all the more gladly about my
weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest
on me.

9. • (TPV) ganito angkanyang sagot,
“Ang tulong ko’y sapat sa lahat ng
pangangailangan mo; lalo ng
nahahayag ang aking
kapangyarihan kung ikaw ay
mahina.” Kaya’t buong galak na
ipagmamapuri ko ang aking
kahinaan upang palakasin ako ng
kapangyarihan ni Cristo.

10. • (AMP) But He said to me, My grace (My favor
and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for
you [sufficient against any danger and enables
you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My
strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled
and completed) and show themselves most
effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all
the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and
infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ
(the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent
over and dwell) upon me!

11. (MSG) and then he told me, My
grace is enough; it's all you need.
My strength comes into its own in
your weakness. Once I heard
that, I was glad to let it happen. I
quit focusing on the handicap and
began appreciating the gift. It was
a case of Christ's strength moving
in on my weakness.

12. • (NKJV) And He said to me, "My grace is
sufficient for you, for My strength is made
perfect in weakness." Therefore most
gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities,
that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
