A promise, spoken by God, is intended to bring us comfort or blessing. Many of these are conditional, in that the Bible says, IF you do this, THEN that will happen to you.
This verse is in two parts. The first part is, "Behold, I come quickly." This saying by Christ is both a prophecy and a promise, that He will come!
The second part is, "blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book." This is clearly called a blessing, and it is written as an IF-THEN statement. IF you keep the sayings of the prophecy of this book, THEN blessings will come upon you.
There are other promises and blessings that are all throughout Scripture, take a look and see for youself!
