2 Corinthians 1:20 For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
In a traditional Jewish marriage, a contract known as the ‘ketubah’,(which means ‘that which is written’, in Hebrew) is signed be both the bride and groom. Originally, it included the price of the bride, the promises that the groom must keep and the rights to which the bride is entitled.
The ketubah was the unalienable right of the bride. It promised that the groom would work for her, honor her, support her and maintain her in truth, but most importantly, that he would never leave her side all the days of her life.
Unfortunately, these days, this contract is often broken. There are many who haven’t kept their promises like they should. But each of us who know the Lord, have been given a ketubah of sorts — it’s the Bible. Within our ketubah, are all the promises of God — and God is not a man that He should lie!
We are His bride! Let’s claim the many promises He has made to us and stand in faith, knowing that He will keep His Word!
