The Lord’s Lineage!
"He will be great, and will be
called the
Son of the Highest, and the Lord God will
give Him the throne of His father David."
Luke 1: 32
In 2 Samuel 7:8-16, Almighty God promised
an everlasting legacy to the dynasty of King
David: saying, “Your house and your kingdom
will endure forever before me; your throne
will be established forever”..
This is similar to the covenant God made
with Abraham that through his seed all the
world would be blessed (Genesis
22:18).
The story of the Old Testament isn’t simply
the story of the Jewish nation; it’s the story
of one family—one ribbon of lineages—
that leads to the Messiah!
Jesus is the rightful heir of the kingship of
Israel who comes through the lineage of David.
He's the ultimate fulfillment of the covenant God
made with David, a descendant of
Abraham.
God keeps His promises, even over
hundreds and thousands of years. He
will keep all His promises to you too!
"When God makes a promise,
you can take it to the bank….
His promises never
fail."
