GOD’S PROMISE
1 CHRONICLES 17:11-15
And it shall come to pass, when thy days be expired that thou must go to be with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom. He shall build me an house, and I will stablish his throne for ever. I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took it from him that was before thee: But I will settle him in mine house and in my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall be established for evermore. According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David
KEY VERSE
“I will be his Father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took it from him that was before thee” V.13
MESSAGE
Humans may change but God never changes. Whatever He has promised, He will surely fulfill it. He promised to lead the Israelites to the Promised Land, when they became perverse, He opted to wipe them out. However, Moses reminded Him of His promise to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and He stood by it. Though those who sinned against Him eventually perished in the wilderness, yet, He led their children, Joshua and Caleb to the Promised Land.
The golden verse records the promise of God to David concerning his son. When Solomon erred and turned away from God, He delayed the punishment to the time of Rehoboam because He had to fulfil His word nonetheless. God never goes back on His promise despite man’s unfaithfulness.
Therefore, is there any promise God made to you that is yet to see the light of the day, check your ways because He never reneges on His words. When you don’t breach your own part of the contract, He is obliged to fulfill. It appears the sun rises and sets but it is stationary; the earth rotates round it hence will experience day and night. The light of God is constantly available. When we keep our focus on Him, there will be no room for darkness. This is His promise to us.
Supplication:
Lord God, help me to keep my focus on you that your promises be fulfilled in my life, in Jesus name. Amen.
