What other scriptures highlight God's fulfillment of promises like in 2 Chronicles 6:15? Scripture Focus: 2 Chronicles 6:15 “You have kept what You promised to Your servant my father David. You spoke with Your mouth, and with Your hand You have fulfilled it this day.” Echoes of Fulfillment in the Old Testament • Numbers 23:19 — “God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?” • Joshua 21:45 — “Not one of all the LORD’s good promises to the house of Israel failed; everything was fulfilled.” • Joshua 23:14 — “Not one of all the good promises the LORD your God gave you has failed. Everything was fulfilled for you; not one promise has failed.” • 1 Kings 8:56 — “Blessed be the LORD, who has given rest to His people Israel according to all that He promised. Not one word has failed of all His good promises, which He made through His servant Moses.” • Psalm 105:8-11 — “He remembers His covenant forever, the word He ordained for a thousand generations… ‘To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.’” • Isaiah 55:11 — “So My word that proceeds from My mouth will not return to Me empty, but it will accomplish what I please, and it will prosper where I send it.” • Jeremiah 1:12 — “You have seen correctly,” the LORD said, “for I am watching over My word to accomplish it.” • Ezekiel 12:25 — “For I, the LORD, will speak whatever word I speak, and it will be fulfilled without delay…” New Testament Witnesses to the Same Faithful God • Luke 1:20 — “Because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled at their proper time.” • Luke 1:45 — “Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord’s word to her will be fulfilled.” • Romans 4:20-21 — “He did not waver through disbelief in the promise of God…but was fully persuaded that God was able to do what He had promised.” • 2 Corinthians 1:20 — “For all the promises of God are ‘Yes’ in Christ. And so through Him our ‘Amen’ is spoken to the glory of God.” • Hebrews 10:23 — “Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for He who promised is faithful.” • 2 Peter 3:9 — “The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish but everyone to come to repentance.” Truths to Hold onto Today • God’s promises are spoken and accomplished by His own hand; He never overpromises or under-delivers. • From Israel’s conquest of Canaan to the coming of Christ, Scripture records an unbroken chain of fulfilled words, proving divine trustworthiness. • The same God who watched over His covenant with David watches over every word He has spoken to us in Christ. • Because every promise is “Yes” in Jesus, believers can rest, obey, and hope with confidence—knowing that what God has said, He will surely bring to pass. |
