God’s Promises of Salvation Bible Reading Plan
For this month’s Bible Reading Plan we are continuing with the theme of the Promises of God. This month I have chosen to focus on God’s Promises of Salvation, since I am writing this for the month when we will celebrate Easter. However, the plan can be done at any time. Read on to discover some of these assuring Bible verses and to download your free Bible Reading Plan of God’s Promises of Salvation.
Bible Verses about Salvation
Unless otherwise stated the Scripture References are taken from the English Standard Version, with links to biblegateway.com. While referring to lots of different versions in my study, I generally use the ESV Women’s Study Bible.
Throughout the Bible we are reminded that God loves and cares for us. As his people faced difficult situations, often of their own making, God promised that he would bring them the comfort and rest they needed.
Jesus also promised that he would provide rest and comfort.
God’s Promises of Comfort
As I put together this Bible Reading Plan on God’s promises of comfort, I realised that a number of themes were emerging. God promises of comfort come in different ways. The type of comfort we will need will depend on our circumstances and our needs.
God’s Promises of Comfort to the Mourning
God often promises comfort to those who are mourning. He understands our feelings and cares for them. One of the most well-known and simplest of these promises is given by Jesus.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Matt 5:4
God’s Promises of Peace
There are a number of Bible verses about peace, but not just any peace – the peace of God. God wants us to have peace in our lives but more so in our hearts as we trust in him.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phil 4:6-7
God’s Promises of Rest
God also promises that he will give us rest. This is very similar to peace, but I like the image it portrays. Sometimes we just need to stop!
Blessed be the Lord who has given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised. Not one word has failed of all his good promise, which he spoke by Moses his servant. 1 Kings 8:56
God’s Promises of Mercy
Another way that God comforts us is giving us mercy. His promise of mercy reassures us that his love will never leave us.
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23

final thought on God’s Promises of Salvation
The final verse I have chosen to reflect on today is one that tells us about the part we play in this promise. We must believe in Jesus and declare him as Lord. Then, God promises, we will be saved.
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. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. Romans 10:9-10
