PROMISES KEPT
1 Kings 8:22-24 (3 Kingdoms 8:22-24)
You have kept what You promised Your servant David my father; You have both spoken with Your mouth, and fulfilled it with Your hand, as today. Now, O Lord God of Israel, keep what You promised Your servant David my father, saying, ‘You shall not fail to have a man sit before Me on the throne of Israel, so long as your people guard and keep their ways to walk before Me, as you walked before Me.’ So now, O Lord God of Israel, let the word be confirmed You spoke to Your servant David my father.
Encouraging Words
One of the encouraging results of reading through the old testament is seeing how many times God makes a promise to His people and how He always follows through with fulfilling His promises. Even when the people would not hold up to their end of the bargain, God always does. This is a characteristic of God that we can hold on to. Glory be to God.
