The LAND God promised Abraham is THE WHOLE WORLD!
"For the PROMISE, that HE SHOULD BE THE HEIR OF THE WORLD, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith." (Rom.4:13)
Ultimately... this is the GOSPEL [GOOD NEWS] of Jesus Christ [the Creator God of the Old Testament - John 1:3 & 10], which is the glory of the coming KINGDOM OF GOD UPON THE EARTH.
Speaking about the unfaithful in the coming Judgment. Jesus says:
"...I know you not whence ye are: depart from Me, all ye workers of iniquity. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when YE SHALL SEE ABRAHAM, ISAAC, AND JACOB, AND ALL THE PROPHETS, IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD, and you yourselves thrust out." (Luke 13:27-28)
The LAND the Lord promised Abraham is THE EARTH.
"... if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and HEIRS ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE." (Gal.3:29)
The Christian's "inheritance" is the same as Abraham's - the EARTH - not heaven. Nowhere in The Bible is the phrase: "the Promised Heaven"... but, "the Promised Land." And it's the earth.

What about the promise at 86yrs of Abraham?
When Abraham was approximately 86 years old the Lord promised Abraham that he would have an heir, and that Abraham's descendants would be as numerous as the stars and to his descendants God would give them the land from the river of Egypt to the great river, Euphrates ( Genesis 15). This was a reassurance of the promise in Genesis 12. We know that about this same time period, Sarah told Abraham to go into her handmaid, Hagar, and that perhaps they might have an heir by her. This was a mistake. Ishmael was born from this union and about 14 years later a son, Isaac was born to Sarah and Abraham. Abraham was 100 years old (Genesis21:1-7.) Isaac was the son of promise.
