“For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.” Hebrews 9:15 (NIV)
God has made wonderful provision for those who belong to His family by faith in Jesus. The Bible verse we have today reminds us of this provision. What is it that God has promised? It is an inheritance for those who belong to His family. We know that inheritances are usually planned in advance and there is usually a document to specify what it will be. Well, that is the case with the promise we are considering here. This inheritance in our verse, which is the document, is an eternal inheritance. It will never run out, never decay, and never be taken away from us. It is an inheritance more precious than we are able to imagine. Friends, if you have believed in Jesus, you are God's child. You are free from any condemnation and He is preparing to bring you to heaven where you will forever enjoy what our verse tells us about.
