Promises Made By God, Will Be Kept

 

Today's verse is Deuteronomy 7:8

But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. 

    Paul has proclaimed that by two immutable things, (God cannot lie, and He has made a promise) our hope of eternal life is founded upon. And we see that in this verse above. It is by the promise God made to Abraham, Issac and Jacob (Israel) that he delivered the Children of Israel out of Egypt, and it will be (was) by his promise to the same that he brings them into the promised land. And just as that promise has yet to be fully realized, as we see the promises made to us that believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, so too will Israel have all of the promises God made to them fulfilled. For our God cannot lie, and he has made us promises. Therefore, seek them out, know them, and as your trust in the Lord your God, trust in his promises to you. Amen.

To God be the Glory
