God made a big promise to Abraham, a promise that took over 400 years to come about. While many of the events that God told Abraham would occur are primarily relegated to Sunday School classes, they should not be. The same God who gave Abraham the most amazing of promises has included Gentile believers in Christ.
The coat of many colors, a talking donkey and a wayward prophet, the Red Sea crossing and the walls of Jericho falling to the sounds of trumpets and shouting are more than merely Sunday School lessons. They are testaments to the reality that God keeps His promises. They are reminders that the God who kept His promise is the same God who is speaking today, and He has not changed.
God continues to keep His promises in our day, and those who believe in Jesus Christ can live in His promises fulfilled. This book is the story of God keeping His promise to Abraham by bringing Israel into the Promised Land, and is designed to encourage you that God will bring you into the fulness of the promise that He has given to you.
