God's deliverance is certain because of His promises, which are assured through the covenant established with His people.
The certainty of God's deliverance is rooted in His everlasting covenant with His people, as exemplified by David's life and faith. In 2 Samuel 23:5, David reflects on God’s covenant, declaring it to be sure and ordered in all things, providing him comfort amidst trials. This covenant assurance indicates that, although David faced grave dangers throughout his life, including threats from King Saul and rebellion within his own family, he remained confident in God's faithful promise of ultimate deliverance. Furthermore, this assurance resonates with New Testament theology wherein Christ secures redemption for His people, confirming the steadfastness of God's promise that ‘none shall pluck them out of my Father's hand’ (John 10:29). Thus, believers can trust in God’s faithful deliverance amid life's uncertainties.
