I want to share from Jerry Savelle's devotional for today! This is very important to know, as a child of God, an heir of God and a joint heir with Jesus!
The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ. (Romans 8:16-17 NKJV)
Because God is your Father, you are an heir of God. You have an inheritance, and the good news is, you don’t have to wait until you get to heaven to enjoy the benefits. Some people believe the Bible teaches that they get their inheritance from God when they die, like some kind of heavenly reward for clean living. But this is not true. As a joint heir with Jesus, you got your inheritance from God when Jesus died.
Jesus is the only person who has ever lived, died, and was then raised from the dead to see to it that His will was carried out—that His joint heirs got their inheritance. As a joint heir with Jesus, you’re entitled to healing; it’s your inheritance. You’re entitled to prosperity; it’s your inheritance. You’re entitled to victory and success; they are your inheritance.
Don’t wait until you get to heaven to enjoy the inheritance God has provided for you through Jesus Christ. It’s yours now, so claim it in the name of Jesus!
Confession: Thank You, Father, for making me a joint heir with Jesus Christ. I believe I receive my inheritance today. I receive my healing, my prosperity, my victory, and my success now—in Jesus’ name.
AMEN! Our purpose for being here now is to walk in the fullness of that inheritance so that others will see HIS life IN us and want we have! The ANSWER is Jesus and the part of the inheritance that we have NOW is for seeking and saving the lost (Luke 19:10)! I LOVE this quote by our partner Jerry O'Dell:"The reason for the knowledge, the purpose for the power, and the plan for the prosperity is reaching the lost."
When you and I REALLY get this, there will be no stopping us from walking in all the fullness that He has blessed us with, NOW, in THIS life, and receiving GREAT rewards in the next! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "God Who Saves":
Shalom in Him!
