Are you enjoying your inheritance? Do you understand that the Creator of the Universe lives in you and you in Him? God tells us in John 14, “You are in me, and I am in you. Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me.” As a Christian, you have an inheritance the world cannot comprehend.
This is Holy God speaking to you, who knows everything about you, including your thoughts… even your words before you say them (Psalm 139) and still loves you! It’s unthinkable and overwhelmingly humbling.
How can you comprehend or explain your inheritance from God? “No eye has seen, nor ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived — the things God has prepared for those who love Him”(I Corinthians 2:9). And yet, that should not stop you from running full speed with Him, no matter what the world throws at you.
You’re not the first to feel underqualified to represent God. You can rightfully say with the Apostle Paul, in Ephesians 3:7-21, “By God’s grace and mighty power, I have been given the privilege of serving Him by spreading this Good News. Though I am the least deserving of all God’s people, he graciously gave me the privilege of telling the Gentiles about the endless treasures available to them in Christ. I was chosen to explain to everyone this mysterious plan that God, the Creator of all things, had kept secret… Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.”
