Inheritance
Have you ever dreamt of receiving an unexpected large inheritance? Maybe some distant uncle you’ve never met somehow leaves you a huge sum of money and a mansion? You’re suddenly wealthy by no effort of your own!
As believers in Christ, we’ve received an inheritance. An undeserved, un-worked for inheritance that doesn’t come with unpaid property taxes.
The Apostle Paul says in Ephesians chapter 1 that “In Christ we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will”
This inheritance is everlasting life. It’s the gift of his Holy Spirit in you, and a peace above all understanding.
You may not have a distant, diseased, wealthy uncle- but in Christ, spiritually, you are rich beyond measure!
