Living out your inheritance!

“O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup;
You maintain my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Yes, I have a good inheritance.” Psalm 16:5-6

An inheritance is a gift you receive from someone else. The inheritance from God is the gift of eternal life. Jesus has given you all of His life and filled you with the Holy Spirit. This inheritance begins to come to you immediately upon making a decision for Jesus.

In this verse in Psalm 16 the “cup” is symbolic of your life and your “lot” is the essence of your being. David is praising God for maintaining and protecting his life. The “lines” are the boundaries around your life and your future with God.

Like David you have an excellent inheritance if you are a believer! The challenge is to be in oneness with God and draw out the Living Water one day at a time.

Jesus lives in you in the essence of the Holy Spirit and His inheritance is new each day. Ask for His love, joy, and peace to fill you and His strength to sustain you and help you meet every challenge in your life.

Don’t live today in a void! Commit your works to God and He will establish His thoughts in you. He will give you wisdom and guidance in both the little and big details of your life. No problem is too big for God!

Your inheritance is available to you today! You don’t have to die to participate in the goodness of God. Walk by faith today and reach out to God for your every need.

He lives so you can live today!

Thought for the day: “ I live in the moment! Make Me your living reality. I want to prosper you and keep you safe. I have overcome the world and nothing can defeat Me. I am your only hope. Live out My inheritance!”
