What does the Bible say about God's pleasure in giving the kingdom?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible affirms that it is God's good pleasure to give His people the kingdom, as seen in Luke 12:32.

In Luke 12:32, Jesus assures His followers, saying, 'Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.' This statement emphasizes God's gracious disposition towards His people. He delights in granting us His kingdom, which encompasses both our present spiritual inheritance and our future glory. The Apostle Paul echoes this sentiment in Ephesians 1:5-9, where he speaks of our predestination and adoption as children, done according to the good pleasure of God's will. God’s pleasure in bestowing the kingdom reflects His love and commitment to His elect, the remnant He has chosen for Himself, ensuring that they experience both His grace now and His eternal promises later.
