Guaranteed Inheritance
Sunday September 3, 2017
When we have walked with the Lord for a period of time our natural inclination is to praise Him for all He has done for us. We know He lifted us out of the pit we dug for ourselves. Now we rejoice in our inheritance as His precious children.
Praise the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the Lord or fully declare his praise? Blessed are those who act justly, who always do what is right. Remember me, Lord, when you show favor to your people, come to my aid when you save them, that I may enjoy the prosperity of your chosen ones, that I may share in the joy of your nation and join your inheritance in giving praise. (Psalm 106:1-5 NIV)
When we sought the Lord, He came to our aid, saved us and set us on a new path. God poured out His grace and favour on us and through our belief in the finished work of Jesus brought us to new life. Together with other believers we worship and praise this wonderful God whose love endures forever. We share the joy of knowing we are a part of the family of God who act justly and do what is right. We have tasted the goodness of God and the power of the Holy Spirit and we have obtained an inheritance that lasts forever.
All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay. (1 Peter 1:3-4 NLT)
God keeps careful watch over us and has given us the assurance that our inheritance in the Kingdom of God is certain.
Prayer: Loving God, I am thankful that my inheritance through faith in Jesus is guaranteed. I praise Your name that Your unfailing love endures forever. Amen
