—Acts 2:29-36
by: Paula Davis.
The oath God made to David that one of his heirs would always sit on the throne extended through the generations to Jesus. Genealogies in both Matthew’s and Luke’s Gospels show that Jesus’ line to David can be traced through both earthly parents. Jesus was the eternal heir and the One who sits at the right hand of God. What great reassurance we can find in this prophetic fulfillment. From a human perspective, it may not look like we expected or what we had set our hearts on. But God’s plan is always better than what we can dream up. We gain confidence in knowing that God always keeps His promises and that His plans do not change.
