The Davidic Covenant, as established in 2 Samuel 7, is a promise from God to David that his lineage would be a source of kingship and everlasting reign. In Christian theology, this promise is understood to be fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who is seen as the ultimate descendant of David and the true heir to the throne.
Scripture indicates that Christ will fulfill the Davidic Covenant by reigning over a kingdom that is political in nature. First, Isaiah 9:6–7 states that when the Messiah sits on David’s throne ruling His kingdom, the government will be upon His shoulder, and the increase of His government will have no end.
The Fulfillment of God’s Covenants with Abraham and David

In Christ, we have the fulfillment of these eternal promises (covenants) made through Abraham, King David and others, that the Heir of the promise has come, and we, as joint heirs with Christ, become the beneficiaries of the fulfilled promises, which is the salvation and redemption of God’s chosen people, the children of God. Those who repent and believe in Him, in His name, are adopted as children of God; children and joint heirs with Christ of eternity.
Galatians 3:27-29 NLT
[27] And all who have been united with Christ in baptism have put on Christ, like putting on new clothes. [28] There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus. [29] And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and God’s promise to Abraham belongs to you.
