BENEDICTION
A benediction (Latin: bene, 'well' + dicere, 'to speak') is a short invocation for divine help, blessing and guidance, usually at the end of worship service. It can also refer to a specific Christian religious service including the exposition of the eucharistic host in the monstrance and the blessing of the people with it. The Priestly Blessing or priestly benediction (Hebrew: ברכת כהנים; translit. birkat kohanim), also known in rabbinic literature as raising of the hands (Hebrew nesiat kapayim), rising to the platform (Hebrew aliyah ledukhan), dukhenen (Yiddish from the Hebrew word dukhan – platform – because the blessing is given from a raised rostrum), or duchening, is a Hebrew prayer recited by Kohanim (the Hebrew Priests, descendants of Aaron). The text of the blessing is found in Numbers 6:23–27. It is also known as the Aaronic blessing. https://www.gotquestions.org/benediction-Bible.html

(re: promises)*
"The Lord's promise is sure. He speaks no careless word; all he says is purest truth, like silver seven times refined." ~ Psalm 12:6 (TLB)
When God promises us things, He promises them through His Word. And the Bible has in it everything God will ever do for us. What God promises in Scripture, He delivers.
