How do we know that God's promise of deliverance is true?

Answered in 1 source

God's promise of deliverance is confirmed through fulfilled prophecy, as seen in the story of Cyrus and Israel's return from Babylon.

The fulfillment of God's promises is a testimony to His faithfulness and sovereignty. For instance, in Isaiah 44:28, God prophesies about King Cyrus, naming him as His instrument for delivering the Israelites from Babylonian captivity. This prophecy was made 200 years before Cyrus was born and was accurately fulfilled when he issued a decree allowing the Jews to return and rebuild Jerusalem. Such fulfilled prophecies demonstrate that God's promises are not idle words but rather declarations of His divine purpose that will certainly come to pass. This historical account encourages believers to trust in God’s promises for redemption and restoration today.
