Genesis 9:8-17
8 Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him:
9 "I now establish my covenant with you and with your descendants after you
10 and with every living creature that was with you--the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you--every living creature on earth.
11 I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be cut off by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth."
12 And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come:
13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds,
15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.
16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth."
17 So God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth."

God remembers the covenant he made with Noah and he holds on to it. God is always faithful to the promises he made. God fulfilled the promises he had given to Abraham - that through the barren womb of Sarai, he would make Abraham into a great nation, children as countless as the sands on the sea shore. God fulfilled the promise he had given to the Isralites through Moses - that he would give those Egyptian slaves a promised land, where milk and honey flows. God fulfilled the promise he had given to Isaiah, 700 years later - that he would give a Savior to redeem the lost, sinful world through Jesus. We are looking forward for the promises of God in our lives - that we would inherit heaven if we follow the footsteps of Jesus, his son.

As we are awaiting the promises of God to fulfill in our lives, let us ask ourselves - how faithful are we, when it comes to the promises we made. When we accepted Jesus as our Savior and Lord, we had given many promises to God. Are we keeping those promises in our life? Or are we looking at God and the fulfilment of HIS promises only?

Let us remember the promises we made before God today when we pray and let’s us make those decisions are followed through, fithfully in our life.
