And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high. (Luke 24:49) Three things joined together when God gives a promise. 1/ The promise . 2/ Waiting for it to be fulfilled . 3/ The evidence of it's being fulfilled . *Sermon Summary:* The sermon shows the pattern of God's promises, their fulfilment, and the evidence of that fulfilment, drawing heavily from Luke 24 and Acts 2. It emphasizes that God, unlike human beings, consistently fulfils His promises, often after a period of waiting and testing of faith, illustrated through examples like Abraham's seed and the disciples awaiting the Holy Spirit. The message sets forth the importance of recognizing God's hand in providence, interpreting signs, and giving Him glory when promises are realized, ultimately pointing to the hope of Christ's return and eternal life.
