In today’s Advent reflection, we look at Psalm 122 — a psalm of ascent that reminds us of God’s faithfulness and the power of His promises. As we hear the call to “pray for the peace of Jerusalem,” we’re led to remember the deeper covenant story running through Scripture: God made promises to Abraham, Moses, David, and the prophets, and every one of those promises finds its fulfillment in Jesus, the true Son of David and the Savior of the world. If God has kept His promises across thousands of years, then we can trust He’ll keep the ones He’s made to us right now — His presence, His forgiveness, His strength, His peace. So as we head into the weekend and sit with our Advent readings, we hold fast to the God who never breaks His word, standing on His promises and trusting that the same faithful God of Scripture is walking with us today.
