Welcome to a year in the Bible with Daily Grace.

This year, we want to spend a few minutes with you every day walking through our study Christ and all of Scripture.

Each week we will dive deeply into two passages of Scripture, one from the Old Testament and one from the New,

seeing how they connect and point to Jesus.

Whether you are doing the study yourself or just following along with us here, we are

hopeful that through studying these passages each week, you will see how Christ is not only present

throughout the entire biblical story, but the center of it. Hi, friends, welcome back to another

week of a year in the Bible. My name is Alexa, and I would normally say that I'm here with my co-host,

Beth, but Beth is actually on maternity leave right now. So I am joined with another writer of the

Christ and All Scripture study, Katie. Hi, Katie. Hi, so excited for Beth, but selfishly so

excited to be here with the Alexa. Same. If you followed along with our previous season of a year in the Bible, season three, you'll recognize Katie's voice because she was our host for that season.

So I'm really excited to have Katie join me for a couple episodes and we'll have some other friends who wrote their Christ in all scripture study join us as well.

So this week we are going to be studying 2 Samuel 7 12 through 16 and Luke 1 32 through 33 and we're going to learn that Jesus is

the fulfillment of the Davidic covenant and he currently reigns at the right hand of God.

So to start us off Katie, could you read 2 Samuel 7 12 through 16 for us? Of course. Let's read together. When your time comes and you rest with your ancestors, I will raise up after you, your descendant, who will come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. He is the one who will build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom

forever. I will be his father, and he will be my son. When he does wrong, I will discipline him

with a rod of men and blows of mortals. But my faithful love will never leave him, as it did

when I removed it from Saul, whom I removed before you. Your house and your kingdom will endure

before me, and your throne will be established forever. So, Alexa, how did this annotation day go for you?

It was good. This is such a powerful passage of scripture. I was actually studying this passage

recently for a different project, so it was just really fun to be able to come back to it again and look at it some more. So I thought I would share the attributes

of God that I noticed in this passage. I feel like I talk about God's faithfulness a lot on this
