Apprehending Our Inheritance (Joshua 14:6-13)
Manage episode 314635464 series 3234654
Paul refers to our inheritance as “all spiritual blessings in the heavenly places.” Christ has won this inheritance, but we live here on earth to apprehend it. That inheritance is not just something we will receive one day when we arrive in glory. It’s something to be contended for now and apprehended now. That’s why Jesus tells us to pray “Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven!” We’ve received the seal of the Holy Spirit as the guarantee of our inheritance — the resurrection power that empowers us to fill all in all with authority of Christ. In that sense we are called to apprehend our inheritance! To see Christ’s kingdom realized in greater measure.
