Where Scripture makes clear that a promise has come to an end, we have warrant not to expect it to be repeated (e.g. the promise of Messiah coming to die for His people in Isaiah 53—He came once to die according to Hebrews 9:28), but where Scripture places no time stamp on a promise, neither should we. God's promises are gracious treasures given to God's people, and we must neither presume upon them (as if we need not trust in the Lord to receive them) nor cast them away (when the Lord has not done so). We continue today to consider three final Objections offered against the land yet being a promise to be realized in the future to a converted Israel.

God's appointments Towards the end of this sermon, Pastor Price explains that God is never late in keeping His Word. Delays are God's appointments in our life to stretch us to exercise our faith in the promises of God so that we don't walk by sight; so that we don't walk by feelings; so that we don't walk by what we observe by way of circumstances; so that we walk according to the promises of God. That's faith because we can't see the promises of God. When we pray for something we think is truly needful, God always responds. It may be a no, it may be a yes, or it may be a wait. God has responded when He calls us to wait. In what He gives us, or in what He doesn't give us, or in what He calls us to wait for, He always does us good.
