A covenant
A binding oath
God’s word given
A fragrant flower
A pledge from God
A token of God’s love
A gift graciously bestowed
Proof of God’s love for us
A way of God speaking to us
A promissory note written to us
A glad spring of heavenly comfort
Not a pledge secured by negotiation
An obligation that God imposes on Himself
A pledge that may involve our cooperation (conditional)
A rock-solid, unequivocal commitment made by God Himself
A binding offer or commitment from God to us to do or give
A guarantee that God will do whatever He has said He will do
A declaration assuring us that something will or will not be done
A binding declaration of something to be done or given for our benefit
A declaration that God will do exactly what He said or something will happen just as pledged
An assurance resting on the perfect justice, power, benevolence and immutable veracity of God
The declaration or assurance which God has given in his word of bestowing blessings on his people
A pledge whose fulfillment rests solely with God, independent of people and situations (unconditional)
A statement telling us that God will definitely do something or that something will definitely happen in the future
A declaration, verbal or written, made by God to us for a good or valuable consideration, in the nature of a covenant, by which He binds himself, and as the case may be, his legal representatives, to do or forbear some act; and gives to the promisee a legal right to demand and enforce a fulfillment
