Delivered by promises from God

Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet

According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:  4Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. II Peter 2

The word given us by God pertains to both life (here and now) and godliness (for this world and hereafter).

We escape through the promises of God when we focus on what God has said and believe what God has said.

God said to HIS people, to HIS chosen:

I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.  Joshua 1:5 / Heb. 13:5

Paul said ... What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?  Romans 8:31

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.   4Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:  Isaiah 26

Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. 8For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
Jeremiah 17
