"In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will" (Ephesians 1:11).

God's purpose in Christ wasn't just to save us from sin, it was to bring us into our inheritance-an inheritance rooted in the blessing of Abraham. The Bible says we are heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17). That means everything that belongs to Christ belongs to you in the same way and measure that it belongs to Him.

So, what are the things that belong to Christ? What's the extent of His inheritance? The Bible says the whole world and everything therein belongs to Him: "The earth is the LORD's, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein" (Psalm 24:1). The Apostle Paul in Ephesians 3:8 also gives us a glimpse into the limitless and unfathomable extent of His inheritance: "To me, though I am the very least of all the saints (God's consecrated people), this grace (favor, privilege) was granted and graciously entrusted: to proclaim to the Gentiles the unending (boundless, fathomless, incalculable, and exhaustless) riches of Christ [wealth which no human being could have searched out]."

This describes the degree or magnitude of your inheritance in Christ. You own what He owns because you're one with Him. This isn't something to be hoped for in the distant future. Ephesians 1:11 says you've already obtained an inheritance. That's past tense. You're a possessor now. Through Christ, you have access to everything that belongs to the Father-wisdom, wealth, peace, authority, and glory.

Even more, Ephesians 1:14 calls the Holy Spirit the "earnest" of our inheritance, the deposit or down payment that guarantees we own everything in Christ. If God gave you His Spirit, then everything else is included. It helps you further understand the words of the Spirit through the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 3:21-22, "Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours."

Refuse to think small. Don't see yourself as disadvantaged. You're chosen, predestined and positioned for greatness. Think, talk, and live with the consciousness that all things are yours in Christ Jesus: "According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue" (2 Peter 1:3).

Confession

I've obtained an inheritance in Christ; all things are mine. The blessing of Abraham is working in me. I walk in dominion, fruitfulness, and divine favour. I live in the reality of my inheritance in Christ today, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
