Christ: The Proof of the Sure Promises of God

Search from the book of the Lord, and read: ‘Not one of these shall fail’.” Isaiah 34:16
The Advent season is a great time to reflect on the wonderful promises of God that had been prophesied millennia ago. In Genesis 3 we find the promise that the Savior would be born of the seed of a woman. In the life of Abraham we see the picture of a miracle birth. In the story of David we see the promise of an eternal kingdom coming from David’s line. In Isaiah we find the promise that the Savior would be born of a virgin.
What God says in today’s verse is that we can count on God fulfilling every word that He has spoken. Every promise, and every curse, will be fulfilled. The birth of Christ reveals the exactitude with which God will totally fulfill His word. That means that God will also finish His many promises with the Second Advent of Christ. The First Advent assures us that the best is yet to come.

Dear Father, Thank You for a word that is certain and sure. Amen.
