INTRODUCTION:

In the last part of this series, we learnt that the promises of God will come to pass even it stay long and also little of the promises have two meaning. Today, as we proceed in our study, may the Lord Bless us tremendously in Jesus Name Amen.

1. UNBELIEVER WORDS ARE KEPT FOR THE RIGHTEOUS
When the Israelities got to the land of Egypt God gave them the best land there Psalm 2:8. This is because, it is God who has everything, and it looks like it is in charge of sinners known. It shall be return to the righteous one day. What is truth in Israel of those days is still truth in Israel of nowadays in God. Gen. 47:1-12; Gen. 24:1; Prov. 13:22; Isa. 61:6; Isa. 45:3; Pro. 10:3; Pro. 11:28; Prov. 11:31; Isa. 49:23; Isa. 1:19.

2. THERE SHOULD BE CURSE WITHOUT A REASON LIKEWISE THE OTHER SIDE
