There is no better keeper of promises than God. He promised Noah that He would never again destroy the world with water. He promised Abraham and Sarah that they would have a child. He promised the Israelites that He would deliver them from Egyptian bondage and lead them into the promised land. And He promised David that his descendants would sit on the throne of Israel. One of the great promises, with far reaching applications, was the promise to Abraham that He would make from him 1) a great nation, 2) in a promised land, and 3) that from him all peoples in the world would be blessed (a reference to salvation brought about by Jesus). All of these promises to Abraham came to fruition. His descendants did enter into the promised land and there they became the great nation of Israel. And Jesus came to the earth, bringing salvation to all mankind. Seeing these fulfilled promises tells us about the nature of the everlasting God: He keeps His promises. So we can be assured that any promise He might make to us will be fulfilled too. God has promised heaven to those who are obedient and faithful to Him. So just as the Israelites became a great nation, obedient Christians will live forever in heaven in the presence of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. What a promise! What a blessing! He is faithful to keep this amazing promise!
