You Are An Heir Of God

Galatians 4:6–7
6And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” 7Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

“If you are a Christian, why are you sick?”

“If your heavenly Father is so wonderful, why do you have so many problems?

“Doesn’t your God help you, His child?”

Imagine such questions levelled at you. If you are tempted to ask, “God, I am Your child. Why is this happening to me?” know that Jesus knows how you feel because 2,000 years ago, the devil played the same trick on Him — “If you are the Son of God…” (Matthew 4:3) You see, his intention was to make Jesus doubt His Sonship, and the devil wants to do the same thing to you today.

The devil wants to destroy the Spirit of sonship in you and in the body of believers. He knows that once you really believe that you are a son of God, something happens — you begin to live life as “an heir of God through Christ”.

As a son, you inherit! You inherit all the blessings of God which Jesus died to give you, including salvation, healing, prosperity, wholeness, favour, intimacy with God and answered prayers. And Jesus rose from the dead to make sure that what He died to give you, you get! He is alive today to enforce this rich, blood-bought inheritance in your life!

You are an heir of God through Christ. This means that you are joint heirs with Jesus — what He inherits, you inherit.

What is prosperity when you are an heir of God? All the diamonds and gold came from Him. What is provision when you are an heir of God? God owns every beast in the forest and the cattle on a thousand hills. What is healing when you are an heir of God? God is your Creator and the very breath of your life.

Enjoy every bit of your inheritance in Christ, not because you deserve it, but because it was paid for by Jesus’ blood. It is your blood-bought right!

What comes into your mind when you heard someone pay for your debt?.. Well, in this devotion, as summary, Jesus died for us to full paid our payments (sins) up to the cross as it is finished, past, present and future. He died to give you, including salvation, healing, prosperity, wholeness, favour, intimacy with God and answered prayers. Isn't that more than wonderful? I should say it is more than what we have now. God loves you, and he really did, what else people in this world need to accept a Saviour none other then our Lord Jesus Christ?..

Lastly, Christmas is around the corner yea, so dinner is still on? I'm looking forward for our small group to have one. hehe, God bless you! and He will guide you throughout the week, no worries mate!..
