Matthew 5:16

Genesis 35:11-12

“And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins; And the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.” God does not forget His promises. While we are often in need of a reminder, God never lets anything slip His mind. I think we sometimes read a promise in scripture, affirming it intellectually as a fact, but not really believing it. That is why we often lack the faith to turn the difficult things over to God. I suppose a man that is informed by God that kings will be numbered among his offspring might let a moment of doubt enter in. That doubt is from the flesh; because we know God is perfectly trustworthy in all things. God’s covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is still valid, and though much of it has been fulfilled, there is still more to come. The land belongs to Israel, and we can be absolutely certain they will have it. If we consider God’s character when examining a promise, we should have no difficulty fully believing it. All that our Lord says we can count on, so let’s embrace His word without even a momentary doubt!
