It is quite amazing that we can actually trace the roots of Jesus Christ for fourteen generations. Why, we have difficulty in our family tree even just up to the fifth generation. The historical genealogy of Jesus Christ under judges, kings, high priests and priests has been on track despite all the changes of government and sins of man. This can highlight one important fact: that God is faithful to what He promises. God has promised a Savior. He promised Abraham land for his numerous offspring. And despite all the impossible events, God made his promise possible. God makes it happen! We can say that our God is the God of the impossible, of great imagination that goes beyond all time. All creation obeys and remains faithful to the Creator. If God has said it, God will fulfill it no matter what. This is also true in our lives. If God has promised that he would take care of us, He will go to all lengths to do it in His time and in His plan. Everything God foretells will happen, so we should put our complete trust in the Lord.
