Claim These 21 Promises as God’s Child

Sometimes we struggle with who we are and where we belong in this life. And we separate who we are with whose we are.

But the two were always meant to be one and the same.

The Bible promises wonderful truths to claim when we belong to the Heavenly Father as His child.

I hope these 21 Promises encourage you as a child of God.

Let’s claim each as our own.
