As Child of God I have an inheritance

Romans 8:17 (NKJV) “and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.”

“Now if we are children, then we are heirs” This means we have an incredible future. In Bible times, the first son was the heir. There may have been many children, and all were loved, but the heir got the largest share of the wealth and carried on the family name. This was the way a great family kept its influence intact and did not have it divided and dissipated. As child of God we are called “heirs of God.”

1 Peter 1:3–4 (NKJV) “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you”

Hebrews 9:15-17 (AMP) “For this reason He is the Mediator and Negotiator of a new covenant , so that those who have been called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has taken place which redeems them from the sins committed under the obsolete first covenant. 16 For where there is a will and testament involved, the death of the one who made it must be established, 17 for a will and testament takes effect at death, since it is never in force as long as the one who made it is alive.”

The Word of God is your direct link to your inheritance

Acts 20:32 (NKJV) “So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified. It’s the Word which is able to build you up. It’s the Word of God which gives you your inheritance in Christ. The Bible contains the information of what your inheritance contains. The Word can impart the faith you need to embrace it. The various parts of your inheritance which are available right now are accessed by faith generated by the Word.

What Exactly Do We Inherit with Christ? - Matthew 25:34 (NKJV) “Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world”

An inheritance has no value unless it is known and acted on. Make it a goal of yours to know and walk in all that belongs to you. Settle for nothing less than the best Jesus offered to you. Our inheritance final inheritance, the Kingdom of God

Colossians 1:12-16 (NLT) “always thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light. 13 For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son, 14 who purchased our freedom and forgave our sins.”
