“Not one of the good promises which the LORD had made to the house of Israel failed; all came to pass.” (Joshua 21:45)
God says a lot of things in Scripture. He makes wild, radical promises at times. His promises to make a nation of millions out of a childless couple (Abraham and Sarah) and His vow to free a slave nation (Israel) from the most powerful empire in the world (Egypt) and then to drive out giants and warriors from their fortified cities by those same freed slaves – these are staggering promises.
And they came to pass. What God says happens. Pay close attention to the promises of the New Testament. They all will come to pass. Every last one of them.
