Joshua 21:45  Not a single one of all the good promises the Lord had given to the family of Israel was left unfulfilled; everything he had spoken came true. (NLT)

Joshua 24:32  The bones of Joseph, which the Israelites had brought along with them when they left Egypt, were buried at Shechem, in the plot of land Jacob had bought from the sons of Hamor for 100 pieces of silver. This land was located in the territory allotted to the descendants of Joseph. (NLT)

Promises made; promises kept. God’s promises to a nation made from a mob came true. A promise made to a brother was kept hundreds of years after all the brothers died. 

We belong to a promise-making, promise-keeping Father in Heaven. What he says, he will do. He will never lead us falsely. He will always be with us. We are his dearly-loved children.

I will trust God’s every promise.

Our Father, what you say you will do is as good as done. Thank you for how we can trust you with our days, weeks, months, and years. Thank you that we can trust you for centuries and millennia. Thank you that all eternity is in your loving hands and complete control. Thank you, most of all, for the truth and goodness that we belong to you. Amen.
