I am doing a project to find all Bible promises that I can. Some say there are hundreds of them, others say there are thousands of promises in the Bible.
I have reviewed the site TOS. I am not asking 'only' Christians, because this is not a Christian-only discussion.
I have found a few websites that mention Bible promises, but they list only a few dozen.
So I have began working through the books of the Bible to find them.
For now just focusing on the book of Leviticus, what promises can you find?

Please list them in this thread.
Thank you, may God bless and keep you
Are you looking for general promises like Gen 3:15 and Joel 2:28, or personal promises made to Christians like Heb 13:5 and Jn 16:13?
Leviticus 14 show people can go to the leaders of their church and ask for prayer for healing , but then As a Christian you can move beyond Leviticus 14 and go a prayer for your own healing , and then go a pray for others , as Jesus will answer both these ways when people expect and believe ....
Here are a few promises from LEVITICUS 20--where God PROMISES DEATH for being a bad person...
Observations of Leviticus 20
The general tone of the chapter, along with some of the “tensions,” becomes evident in the following observations:
(1) The chapter prescribes capital punishment for some of the sins forbidden in chapters 18 & 19.
(2) There is a co-participation between God and His people Israel in condemning and executing those who are guilty of these capital crimes. Men must cooperate with God in judging the wicked or they become accessories to the crime (vv. 4-5).
(3) Not all capital crimes are listed here, but only selected capital crimes. In particular, those capital crimes are listed which have been forbidden in the immediately preceding context.
(4) The capital crimes mentioned here are not those which we would have expected, those which governments generally condemn, such as “murder,” “kidnapping,” and “rape.”
(5) The capital crimes of this chapter are not those which are universal, applicable in all dispensations, and would thus be directly applicable to or binding upon the 20th Century Christian.
(6) Quite frankly, some of these capital crimes are offenses which we might doubt as worthy of the death penalty. For example, one finds it difficult to conceive of a man having sexual relations with his wife during her monthly period as being a crime on a par with murder, adultery, or incest.

It is not so much a crime as it is disobedience to G-d's Torah...
