TAKING OVER BY THE WORD OF HIS GRACE (2)


“And now, brethren”, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified”

Acts 20:32

LIGHT FOR THE NOW: Inheritance is not for children. It is for sons.

The Word of God comes to illuminate, inform and build your spirit thereby bringing you into the place God has prepared for you, helping you to understand the life you are supposed to live. The Word gives you divine insight into mysteries and secrets. So, when you are studying the Word on your own or hearing it being preached or taught, you must receive it with joy. When you receive the Word with gladness, very easily it imparts courage and faith to your spirit. The Bible makes us to understand that we have an inheritance in Christ. However, for you to use, walk and enjoy the vital reality of your inheritance in Christ, you need the Word. As you study and meditate therein, all that rightly belongs to you in Christ are not only unveiled to you, they become your vital experience. Inheritance is not for babies, it comes to those who have matured through constant study and meditation on the Word of his grace. The Bible says, “through knowledge shall the just be delivered” (Proverbs 11:9). The just refers to those who have the life and nature of Christ in their spirits, those who are born again. Through the knowledge God’s word, they are delivered not from troubles but into their rightful place of inheritance.

The Word of God is what catapults you into that large place which the Psalmist spoke about in Psalm 18:19; a place of wealth, health and prosperity. It is therefore important that you get to know and possess your inheritance through the Word of his grace. You can only come into your inheritance when you take ownership of the Word of his grace. Picture this scenario: You walk into a restaurant every time to eat and you pay at the end of each meal. Wouldn’t you rather want to be the owner of that restaurant so that you can both eat to your fill without payment and also receive payment from those who come to eat in your restaurant?  God expects us to take ownership of the Word of his grace and come into our inheritance as well as dispense goodwill toward men. It is only in ownership that you can truly take over.


INSTRUCTION: Grow into your inheritance via knowledge.


PRAYER: Lord, thank you for Grace


QUOTE: It is only in ownership that you can truly take over.
