Luke 1:70 As he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began: Look over your lives, O Christians I and you cannot find one hour when God's promises have failed you. Look over the history of His people, and it is full of promises fulfilled; but there is not a fragment of a broken promise to be found. When Elisha's servant was afraid because the armies of Syria were besieging them in Dothan, Elisha prayed that his eyes might be opened; and the servant saw that the mountain was full of horses and chariots round about Elisha. If God touches our eyes, we too shall see all our own life and all history full of God's fulfilled promises round about us. As when Milton's archangel spoke — "To confirm His words, out flew Millions of flaming swords, drawn from the thighs Of mighty cherubim." So God speaks a promise, and out fly millions of facts and experiences to confirm His words.
