Our Promise Keeper {First 5}

December 11, 2019 by Marissa Leave a Comment

I’m sharing today over at First 5. Here’s a preview . . .


Isaiah 49:15 (ESV) “‘Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget, yet I will not forget you. ‘”

Promises can be difficult to keep. When my kids were little, I’d often make an early morning promise of a board game in the afternoon. But by 5:00 p. m. , Candy Land was the furthest thing from my mind, and I failed to keep my earlier promise.

But God never fails. We see in Isaiah 49 that in Jesus Christ, God keeps every single promise He makes to His children.

The people in Isaiah’s time looked forward to the time when the promises of Isaiah 49 would be fulfilled by the Servant of God. We look backward and see how God has fulfilled each of these promises through His Son, Jesus Christ.


To read the rest of the teaching, head over to First 5. And while you’re there, be sure to download the First 5 app so you can follow along through the rest our study of Isaiah with the First 5 team!
