Alma 9:24

24 For behold, the promises of the Lord are extended to the Lamanites, but they are not unto you if ye transgress; for has not the Lord expressly promised and firmly decreed, that if ye will rebel against him that ye shall butterly be destroyed from off the face of the earth?

Alma said the word "promise" twice, then to add even more emphasis, added "firmly decreed." Surely he believes God keeps His promises and wanted the people to understand so badly.

I've been trying lately to focus on God's covenants and God's promises. It's the most comforting thing I thought I can think of.

A great way to drift off to sleep.

Beyond comforting.
