Promise fulfilled

22 w

I was thinking this weekend, how many times must a promise be fulfilled for it to be completely fulfilled?

My dad told me for many years that his pickup was mine and that he would look after it for me until it becomes mine.

Well, unfortunately, it did become mine when he passed away in 2016, in his Will, he left me his 1984 Ford F150. In 2019 we decide to move out of South Africa and had to sell the pickup/bakkie and therefore my inheritance.
I now have nothing to show for my inheritance as we used the money during the lockdown to survive on.

Can my son now go to the person who bought my pickup and tell him that it is his as I promised it to him as an inheritance from me?

In no court of law would that be possible as the ownership has been lost through the sale of the vehicle.

I see a similar event taking place in Israel.

In Joshua 21:43-45 we read: "So the Lord gave Israel all the land which He had sworn to give to their fathers, and they took possession of it and lived in it. 44 The Lord gave them rest on every side, in accordance with everything that He had sworn to their fathers, and not one of all their enemies stood before them; the Lord handed over all their enemies to them. 45 Not one of the good promises which the Lord had spoken to the house of Israel failed; all had come to pass."

All the promises that were made to Abraham were fulfilled. Unfortunately, the people lost their inheritance as they moved away from Father's protection. Now the descendants want the inheritance for themselves; for a second time.

I can imagine some people thinking "that is anti-Semitic". Well, even this word is being misappropriated to mean something very specific whereas it includes a much larger population (it is like saying the word "gay" always meant homosexual).

If we go to the root of what it means to be a Semite:

Semite
/ˈsiːmʌɪt,ˈsɛmʌɪt/
noun: Semite - a member of any of the peoples who speak or spoke a Semitic language, including in particular the Jews and Arabs.

Semitic languages include: Arabic, Hebrew, Amharic, Aramaic, and Maltese.

Bear in mind the word is not about religions, but about a specific language spoken, so it is being taken out of context to mean something different in our modern times. And what do we do when something is taken out of context, we correct people...

Am I missing something or are there any other verses talking of the promise being fulfilled a second time?

You have something to show--your father helped keep you alive during a globally plotted death campaign. I understand losing things that are yours, though. It generally sucks. There is a gatekeeper on the next round of inheritance and He happened to live perfectly....

Reading your article on `All Israel Will Be Restored` I was hoping to get your understanding of where Israel would be restored to as it might fit in with the question of mine in this post.

Do you maybe have some understanding of where the restoration will take place?

Thought for Today: Monday May 12

YHVH wants to be central in your entire being. When your focus is firmly upon Him, His Peace displaces fears and worries. They will encircle you, seeking entrance, therefore you must stay alert. Let trust, faith and thankfulness stand guard, turning back any fear before it can gain a foothold.
