POSSESSING YOUR WEALTH

Fear has prevented many Christians from possessing their God-given inheritance. The fear of becoming materialistic has caused believers to neglect this important part of what is theirs in Christ: the inheritance of things. Materialism is not a result of having things but of letting things take a place of priority in life. Materialism tries to fulfill emotional or spiritual needs with material things. Material things will never fill the void that only God and His Word can fill.

Psalm 24:9 “Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.” there are gates in this life and God has enables us to break even in the market place and we are the seed of Abraham by faith in Jesus Christ according to Galatians 3:29. It says, “And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (NKJV). There’s an inheritance of wealth that belongs to you as an heir of Abraham through Christ Jesus.

God’s promise is that we, too, would inherit the world. From Abraham’s day until this present time, God has looked for men and women to inherit the world and all that is in it. Psalm 24:1 says, “The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein” (NKJV). Jesus said it Himself in Matthew 5:5, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth” (NKJV). Inheriting the earth is not a promise for future generation any more than meekness is. Faith is now. God wants His influence to reach every aspect of life. He wants the fullness of this earth to transfer into the hands of holy people now.

Confession:

I am blessed, I am wealthy in Christ Jesus, the lines are falling unto me in pleasant places, I have a goodly heritage! Glory be to God!
