BLESSING #28 – Disciples of Jesus are heirs with Him

When we are adopted into God’s family, we are not only brothers and sisters of Jesus Christ, God makes us fellow heirs of God’s priceless inheritance.

Romans 8:16–17 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

Ephesians 1:11 In him [Jesus] 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,

An inheritance comes to an heir not because they deserve it but because of who they are. God’s inheritance will be shared with us, not because of what we have done or that we deserve it, but because we belong to Him. It is made available to us only because of His incredible love and He wants to share His limitless resources with His Son, Jesus, and each one of us!
