Has anyone ever tried to convince you of something by using phrases such as “My word is my bond!” or “Scout’s honor!”. A phrase that my daughter often uses is “Pinky promise!”. These all sound good, but how much weight do these words really carry?
On the contrary, the promises of God are facts of the Father and the obedience of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. And because we are heirs of the King through Jesus Christ, we are entitled to all the promises of God. I challenge you to claim your inheritance.
Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.” Acts 2:38-39 (NKJV)
