Is there proof that the Abrahamic and Davidic Covenants have been fufilled?

Genesis 12:1-3 El Shaddai [God] initiated His covenant with Abram when he was living in Ur of the Chaldeans, promising land, descendants, and a world-wide blessing.

Genesis 12:4, 5 Abram went with his family to Haran, lived there until he left at the age of 75 for the land of Canaan with his wife and nephew Lot

Genesis 13:14-17 Lot and Abram separate; God again promises the land to Abram and his descendants

Genesis 15:1-21 The Covenant is ratified when God passes between the three kinds of animals that Abram sacrificed and laid before El Shaddai.

Genesis 17:1-27 When Abram is 99 the covenant is renewed and his name is changed from Abram [exalted father] to Abraham [father of a multitude]. God promises a son by Sarah through whom the covenant will extend. The sign of the covenant as circumcision is established for all males from the 8th day of birth.

Genesis 22:15-18 The Binding of Isaac: confirmation of the covenant through Abraham's obedience: "and in your descendants all the nations of the earth shall find blessing..." www.agapebiblestudy.com

House. The first promise deals with David’s house (physical descendants).David’s own son would sit on his throne as king of Israel after his death: And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thine own body (2 Sam. 7:12). David’s son Solomon was God’s choice to succeed David as king (1 Ki. 1:30).

Temple. The second promise deals with the temple David wanted to build for God. David would not be allowed to build it; but his son Solomon would: “He shall build an house for my name” (2 Sam. 7:13).

Throne. The third promise deals with the throne (royal authority) of David and Solomon. God said, “I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever” (2Sam. 7:13, cf. v. 16). The promise is that Solomon’s throne, not his seed, would be established forever. Christ did not come through Solomon’s line, which was cutoff at Coniah (Jeconiah). God said of Coniah, “No man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah” (Jer. 22:30). friends of israel website

Update:

Mariyah, What I am understanding is that you say these two covenants have been fulfilled? Please show through Biblical verses where these two covenants have been fulfilled. Nowhere have they been fulfilled, in any reading that I have done.

A covenant, such using fact the Abrahamic covenant, is an contract between guy and God. guy has an analogous opinion to persist with the ensures made as portion of the covenant and God supplies you particular reward in return. something is as much as those people who've made the covenant using fact God won't renege on his supplies you.
