“Forever, O Lord, your word is settled in heaven. Your faithfulness endures to all generations; You established the earth, and it abides.” Psalm 119:89, 90 NKJV
In Christ, expect the blessing to pursue you because the lines are fallen unto you in pleasant places. So, whenever you are confronted with any challenge, just know that that challenge will pass because that is not your heritage. God will meet you at the point of your need. He will not abandon you. You are going to have your baby because your heritage in Christ is fruitfulness. Barrenness is not your heritage!  God said fruitfulness is your portion. At creation, “God blessed them and said be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion…” (Genesis 1:28 KJV).

Forget about where you come from. Your family background has nothing to do with your heritage in Christ. You belong to the family of the Monarch of the universe. His name is Jehovah! That is where you came from and it is a company that can never fail. Therefore, you cannot fail. Consider this assurance from the scripture. “Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath, that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us” (Hebrews 6:17, 18 NKJV).
God swore an oath by Himself because He looked for who He will swear by and He found none. There is no one greater than Him. So, He swore by Himself and not only that, but He also said His Word is infallible. His Word alone is strong enough without an oath. But He said; “Just in case you are in doubt of what I have said concerning you, let me add an oath to it.” So, there is the Word and there is also an oath! “By two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie…” God cannot lie. In other words, it is a done deal.
