You may say that this promise is given to the Jews, the descendants of Jacob, and you are right. But don’t think there is nothing in it for those of other races – for ourselves. What God is saying is that the promises He made to Abraham and to Jacob were still valid. He had chosen the people of Israel and He would always care for them. He would not forget them. He would not change. We who believe in Jesus as our Savior are God’s people. He has promised to watch over us. We can depend on Him to be faithful to His promises because He does not change.
