The Plan

Duration: 365 days

Prophecy Thread of Week 14

Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary Definition of Truth:
Conformity to fact or reality; exact accordance with that which is, or has been, or shall be. The truth of history constitutes its whole value. We rely on the truth of the scriptural prophecies.

THE EVERLASTING COVENANT WITH ISRAEL

God made an everlasting covenant with Abraham and his descendents the Israelites. God cannot lie or break His word. Today, this covenant continues to believers in Christ (Gal 3:14). Paul states that in this current age there are blinders preventing the understanding of the Messiah (Rom 11). However, in the ages to come there will be no blinders and all will recognize that through Jesus Christ the covenant will go on forever.

PROMISED

GOD’S COVENANT WITH ABRAHAM

1913 BC, 1897 BC (U)

Gen 17:7 I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you.

THE ANGEL OF THE LORD AT BOKIM

1467 BC

Jdg 2:1 The angel of the LORD went up from Gilgal to Bokim and said, “I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land I swore to give to your ancestors. I said, ‘I will never break my covenant with you,

SAMUEL’S FAREWELL SPEECH

1Sa 12:22 For the sake of his great name the LORD will not reject his people, because the LORD was pleased to make you his own.

WILL BE FULFILLED

FEAST OF THE KINGDOM ON THE EARTH

ONE THOUSAND YEAR REIGN

Mic 7:20 You will be faithful to Jacob, and show love to Abraham, as you pledged on oath to our ancestors in days long ago.

GOD’S COVENANT WITH ISRAEL GOES ON FOREVER

ETERNAL AGES TO COME

Isa 59:21 “As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says the LORD. “My Spirit, who is on you, will not depart from you, and my words that I have put in your mouth will always be on your lips, on the lips of your children and on the lips of their descendants—from this time on and forever,” says the LORD.

Prophecies declared are in blue, prophecies fulfilled are in red, prophecies currently being fulfilled are in green, and prophecies to be fulfilled are in orange. Bold historical context dates are from Jeff Swanson's The Plan dating system, and dates marked (U) are Archbishop Ussher's 1658 dating system.
** The date of this prophecy is in its referential context: the verse has been moved to the time frame of its contextual orientation.
