Biblical promises for all occasions
Imagine this: God has a promise tucked away, just for you, for every single thing you're going through. He's always there, right beside you, and He's made these amazing promises so you can trust that He's working things out and you can just rest in Him. Think about it – not one of His promises has ever failed. They've all come true.
Every single promise you ask for in Jesus' name is guaranteed. God will make it happen, for your good and for His glory. These promises are kind of like a two-way street: there's a condition and a result. The result depends on whether you meet the condition.
A promise from God is like a declaration, and it has the power to become reality, as long as you meet the conditions. Spend some time in the Bible, and you'll find tons of promises God has made. A great example is the promise of salvation in the New Covenant. Paul writes, "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9).
See how that works? It's up to you to believe and confess that Jesus is Lord. When you do that, you activate the promise, and it comes true. God wants everyone to be saved, but not everyone unlocks the power of that promise.
Another example is Exodus 20:12: "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you." This promise from God only comes true if you honor your parents. To see God fulfill this promise in your life, you have to meet the condition, and then the result will follow.
God bless you.

Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.
“Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me?

Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe because of the works themselves.

After a little while the world will no longer see Me, but you will see Me; because I live, you will live also.

On that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.” Judas (not Iscariot) *said to Him, “Lord, what then has happened that You are going to disclose Yourself to us and not to the world?” Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our dwelling with him. He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me. “These things I have spoken to you while abiding with you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you. Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful. You heard that I said to you, ‘I go away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced because I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. And now I have told you before it happens, so that when it happens, you may believe. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.
