For generations to come
"If he intends to harm you, may the LORD strike me dead if I don't let you know about it and get you safely away. May the LORD be with you as he was with my father! And if I remain alive, please keep your sacred promise and be loyal to me; but if I die, show the same kind of loyalty to my family for ever. And when the LORD has completely destroyed all your enemies, may our promise to each other still be unbroken. If it is broken, the LORD will punish you."
~ 1 Samuel 20.13-16 GNB
Some friendships are passed down to the descendants for generations to come. The form and nature of the friendship evolves, but the relationship is honoured and remembered.
God's promise stands forever. As long as the next generations of believers keep honouring and obeying him, his promise is unbroken. And it is our duty to be role model, so the next generation choose to honour and obey God.
