Day 19 "You are Royalty"
Good Morning Beauties!
When I hear the word royalty, I immediately think of family bloodline. People are born into a royal family, right? YES! As born again Christians, we are born into Christ's family - the most royal of them all!
Here is a great lesson from Rick Warren on our inheritance...
The New Testament gives great emphasis to our rich “inheritance.” As children in God’s family we get to share in the family fortune, that everything God has belongs to us (Galatians 4:7). The apostle Paul adds, “I want you to realize what a rich and glorious inheritance he has given to his people” (Ephesians 1:18 NLT).
What benefits do we inherit?
As children in God’s family we are given “the riches ... of his grace ... kindness ... patience ... glory ... wisdom ... power ... and mercy” (Ephesians 1:7; Romans 2:4; 9:23; 11:33; Ephesians 3:16; 2:4). We also inherit eternal life and God puts his Spirit inside us now as a guarantee of all that is to come.
What an inheritance! You are far richer than you realize, which is why Paul could write with confidence: “My God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19 NIV).
Your eternal inheritance is priceless, pure, permanent, and protected; no one can take it from you. It can’t be destroyed by war, a poor economy, or disaster. ~ Rick Warren
WOW! That's a very encouraging message! My life's journey has brought me from a family heritage of pig farmers all the way to daughter of the King! What about you? Where has your life's journey taken you? Selah.
