God's Covenant and the Missionary's Commission
What to notice today
God establishes an eternal covenant with David, promising that his offspring will build a house for God's name and his kingdom will endure forever—a promise ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Meanwhile, Paul's missionary journeys in Acts demonstrate the expansion of God's kingdom through the proclamation of the gospel, as he faces both receptive audiences and fierce opposition, yet the word of the Lord continues to grow and prevail.
