How do we know God's promise is true?

Answered in 6 sources

God's promises are verified through His faithful covenant, seen in the fulfillment of the fall of Jericho to His chosen people.

God's promise is true and reliable as demonstrated by the covenant He made with Abram, which predates even the fall of Jericho by centuries. Throughout Scripture, we see that God engages Himself behind His promises, showing that they are founded on His character rather than our actions. In Joshua 6, God assures Joshua that Jericho has already been given to Israel, signifying that their victory is secured not by their own merit, but by faith in God's unwavering promise. This historical event serves as a reminder to believers today that God's fulfillment of His promises is ultimately rooted in His sovereign grace and steadfastness.
