No consiguieron el cumplimiento de las promesas, pero las vieron desde lejos y las acogieron (Heb. 11:13).
Hombres y mujeres fieles que vivieron en tiempos precristianos, como Abel, Abrahán, Sara, Elías y Jeremías, miraban hacia un futuro brillante y prometedor (Tito 1:2). En el nuevo mundo podrán encaminarse a la perfección y ser liberados “de la esclavitud a la corrupción” gracias a la labor sacerdotal de Jesucristo y los 144.000 (Rom. 8:21). Hay algo más que infundió valor a siervos de Dios de la antigüedad como Jeremías. Se trata de la garantía divina que se refleja en esta promesa que recibió el profeta: “De seguro pelearán contra ti, pero no prevalecerán contra ti, porque: ‘Yo estoy contigo —es la expresión de Jehová— para librarte’” (Jer. 1:19). También a nosotros nos fortalece reflexionar en las promesas de Dios para el futuro y en la protección espiritual que él nos ha garantizado (Pro. 2:7; 2 Cor. 4:17, 18).
Tuesday, June 7
They did not get the fulfillment of the promises, but they saw them afar off and welcomed them.—Heb. 11:13.
Faithful ones of pre-Christian times, such as Abel, Abraham, Sarah, Elijah, and Jeremiah, looked to a bright and appealing future. (Titus 1:2) Upon being resurrected, they will eventually reach perfection and be “set free from enslavement to corruption” through the priestly services of Christ Jesus and his 144,000 underpriests. (Rom. 8:21) Moreover, Jeremiah and other bold servants of God in ancient times took courage because of Jehovah’s assurance, reflected in his promise to Jeremiah: “They will be certain to fight against you, but they will not prevail against you, for ‘I am with you,’ is the utterance of Jehovah, ‘to deliver you.’” (Jer. 1:19) Today, when we reflect on God’s promises for our future and his assurance of spiritual protection, we are likewise strengthened.—Prov. 2:7; 2 Cor. 4:17, 18.
Examining the Bible Scriptures Daily, Such instructions gave Jesus ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ so that he would ‘know how to answer the tired one with a word.’ (Isa. 30:20; 50:4; Matt. 11:28-30) Being awakened to timely counsel from the Word of God each morning will not only help you to cope with your own problems but also equip you with ‘the tongue of the taught ones’ to help others.”
