UNDERSTANDING WHO YOUR ARE IN CHRIST

in #steemchurch6 years ago (edited)

Its actually being a while...i got tested on my own teachings,on faith and sonship. To cut the long story short my phone was stolen for the 3rd time within a year,and this was the most painful of all because my exams were to start in two days and all my pdfs were in my phone and other important files...i could not cry,was so confused and just decided that God has forsaken me and that why would HE allow that to happen to me. And this portion of the scripture struck my heart."in all things give thanks to God". It was never easy for me but i knew one thing...either i follow his way or not He will forever remain God...This is just a way to steer our faiths this morning..trust in God always...
And now to the topic of today,understanding your inheritance as a SON
INTRODUCTION
The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the
congregation of the dead. Proverbs 21:16

Every redeemed child of God has an enviable heritage possessions of great value in Him. Unfortunately, however, many are ignorant of this truth. They have been deceived into accepting their present condition in life as their portion from God. But I am glad to let you know that your glorious portion in Christ is established in scriptures.

A heritage, as defined by the dictionary, is that Which can be inherited, such as virtues, possessions, characters, etc. Heritages are usually passed down a particular lineage, family, etc.
The Bible says, in 1 Corinthians 2:9, that “...Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things Which God hath prepared for them that love him.” God has prepared great inheritance for His children.
But what is this inheritance or possession in God; How do we identify our inheritance in God? If you do not know what your possession is like, you won’t know whether you have it or not. What is it worth? How do we take delivery of it?
We belong to a kingdom that, essentially, operates on insight. Many innocent people in the body of Christ are victims of the lies of the devil because they do not know nor have the truth on the matter in question.
And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:32.
Most times, when you fail an exam, it is not because you do not know anything, but because you do not know enough. If you scored thirty percent, you made some points, but you did not make enough points to make a pass. It is not enough to know something; you must know enough of the thing. When understanding comes, victory follows because, understanding is all that faith requires to come alive.
Apostle Paul, in praying for the Ephesians Church, laid great emphasis on the subject of understanding In his prayer he said:
That the God of our Lord jesus Christ, the father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the Knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his caning, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints Ephesians 1:17-18 As the eyes of your understanding become enlightened, you gain access to the riches of your inheritance. Not only that, you are able to see His power at work in you, which enables you to take delivery of your inheritance. You become aggressive in your faith becauseyoucanseetheinheritanceandtheempowerment available to possess it.

There is always what to do to tap into your rich heritage in Christ. Mary, the mother of Jesus, said, ”Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it” (In. 2:51.

you need to possess a working knowledge of your goodly heritage in Christ and make you an all-round commander under all circumstances. The thoughts in this hook conform with Hosea 4:6. They maintain that your greatest enemy is not the woman or the man next door, or the proverbial witch, but your ignorance of what you must do to have dominion.

we shall be looking at man, from his need for divine favour, to his family affairs, business, health and spiritual Concerns. For each of these subjects . These are things that Will grant you covenant access to make your covenant heritage a reality.

The world is waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God that is, those, who through an understanding of their covenant heritage in Christ, can operate like God on earth. Such ones will be able to exercise total dominion over all issues of life, bringing deliverance to many. They will think, talk and live in the realm of dominion, where all things are possible with them. They will have things the way they want it, just like the Word of God has said.

That's really tough. Losing three phones within a year, that's a new one. We're glad to see you on SteemChurch once again.

Understanding who we are in Christ is by living a purposeful life by answering God's calling

Well said brother, and very sorry about the loss of your phone, I can relate perfectly. As concern your post you make a great point; despite our need to be meek, there is need to be violent and rugged in the spirit because that is what the devil bows and fears. It gives him the big blow that we know who we are in Christ.
Thanks for sharing

Still Elisedaniels...Love for the Gospel.

Living with Faith and belief in God is one thing we should do all through our life on earth .
