It Shall Come To Pass!

The word "shall" is a word that is frequently used in the bible. However, little attention is given to this word despite the authority and determining outcomes it speaks to.

The word "shall," for the most part, is always indicating DETERMINE FUTURE EVENTS, suggesting what one's intent, plans, or expectation is concerning future events. In other words, it speaks ...
Of a determine or establish end or result. Unlike words such as may and might that suggest or detains an uncertainty, the term "SHALL" indicates what will happen or what will be.

Amazingly, the etymology or origin of this word is of an old English origin, which means to "owe." It goes even further back to a prehistoric Germanic word skal or skul, which means "debt."

It is used in English as an auxiliary verb, denoting future time with such phrases as intends to, plan to, or expects to, must, ought to, etc. The bottom line is when this word is used, it speaks directly to a future obligation.

To owe someone or be in debt to anyone suggests that the indebted one had to, at some point, borrow from the one they're obligated to. So the revelation of the word "shall" will always be accompanied by the understanding that the future owes you, but for the most part, that owing is conditional.

For example, scriptures say, "And it SHALL come to pass if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I commanded thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth, Deut. 28:1

So for what is being promised to come to pass, we must lend our belief to whatever the biblical command may be, and as a result, the future now owes us the promise.

Further proof of this revelation extends to Deut 28:2, which says that ALL these blessings "SHALL" (OR WILL BE OWED TO US) come on us and overtake us if we shalt harken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.

So rather than being so caught up on the Prophet/prophetess saying that it "shall come to pass," you ought to be more concerned about the INSTRUCTIONS, which if followed will cause it to come to pass.

"You can not be owed anything if you've not invested something."
