TOPIC: 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
Recommended Reading: Luke 20:41-47
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” (verse 16, NIV). This is similar to the covenant God made with Abraham that through his seed all the world would be blessed (Genesis 22:18).
The opening verse of the New Testament says, “The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham” (Matthew 1:1). 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 is 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.
