Promise Fulfilled

Journey
.
I prayed to the Lord my God and confessed: “O Lord, you are a great and awesome God! You always fulfill your covenant and keep your promises of unfailing love to those who love you and obey your commands.

My rightness and justice [and faithfully fulfilled promise] shall be forever, and My salvation to all generations.

This is why the fulfillment of God's promise depends entirely on trusting God and his way, and then simply embracing him and what he does. God's promise arrives as pure gift.

But now you have arrived at your destination: By faith in Christ you are in direct relationship with God. Your baptism in Christ was not just washing you up for a fresh start. It also involved dressing you in an adult faith wardrobe—Christ's life, the fulfillment of God's original promise.

For all of God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “Yes!”

[Christ, the Messiah] is therefore the Negotiator and Mediator of an [entirely] new agreement (testament, covenant), so that those who are called and offered it may receive the fulfillment of the promised everlasting inheritance--

Daniel 9:4 Isaiah 51:8 Romans 4:16 Galatians 3:25 2 Corinthians 1:20 Hebrews 9:15

Faith is the key to answered prayer.
