We Enjoy the Divine Inheritance and are Made God’s Inheritance for His Enjoyment

As believers in Christ who are children of God, sons of God, and heirs of God, we enjoy God as our inheritance and we are being made God’s inheritance; as God works Himself into us and constitutes us with Himself in our daily enjoyment and experience of Him, there are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and we become His inheritance! Praise the Lord!

Lord Jesus, keep us enjoying You today. Work Yourself into us a little more today. Keep our being open to You in all things. May we gain more of God today and may God gain more of us today! Amen, Lord Jesus, may the eyes of our heart be enlightened for us to know what is the hope of Your calling and what are the riches of the glory of God’s inheritance in the saints! Amen, Lord, keep us enjoying You as our inheritance until we become Your inheritance! Amen!

How wonderful it is for us to know that we believers in Christ are heirs of God! In the world today, an heir is a person legally entitled to inherit the property, assets, or title of another person upon his death. We believers in Christ become heirs of God.

Our basic qualification to be heirs of God is having the divine life in us. We are recipients of the promise and inheritance of God, for we are born in God’s family through faith in Christ. We are co-heirs with Christ, and we receive the promises of salvation, eternal life, and the kingdom of God.

For us to enjoy God as our inheritance, we need to grow in life. After being born as children of God, we must grow in life to become sons of God, those led by the Spirit of God, and we need to be brought to maturity and pass through suffering so that we may be glorified and become legal heirs.

Wow, we are becoming legal heirs of God to inherit all that God is and has! We are in Christ, Christ is in us, and He is the One who inherits the blessing; in Him, we inherit all that God is.

Christ is the Heir of all things, and we are destined to be joint heirs with Christ. As those regenerated by God with His life and nature, we have become heirs of God.

We inherit God not only personally but also corporately, together with the saints, for Christ is our portion of inheritance with the saints who are in the light.

One day, we will be glorified with Christ to be made into the same image as He is, even to be transfigured in our body to match the body of His glory!

Praise the Lord, what a glorious destiny awaits us! And how much we want to cooperate with the Lord to grow in life unto maturity and be willing to pass through sufferings for Him to bring us into the full enjoyment of what He is! Amen!

We Believers Enjoy the Divine Inheritance and are made God’s Inheritance for His Enjoyment

If we prayerfully consider the matter of being heirs of God in the word of God, we will realise not only that we believers in Christ are heirs of God who enjoy God as our inheritance but even more, that we are made God’s inheritance!

We need to have the eyes of our heart enlightened so that we may know what is the hope of His calling, and what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints (Eph. 1:18).

Wow, the riches of the glory of God’s inheritance in the saints! What is this?

On the one hand, we enjoy God as our inheritance, for we are heirs of God; on the other hand, we become God’s inheritance, and there are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints! Amazing!

We truly need to pray over this matter, not thinking we understand this or know this but really enter into the reality of this.

We believers in Christ are heirs of God, even joint heirs with Christ according to the promise and the hope of eternal life.

We are heirs of God through justification by the grace of Christ and regeneration in the resurrection of Christ.

As heirs of God, we inherit the Triune God as our inheritance with the Holy Spirit as the pledge to share with all the saints in the light the Triune God embodied in Christ as our portion!

Praise the Lord, we will be glorified with Christ, and we will inherit an inheritance kept in the heavens as a living hope! Hallelujah!

In Eph. 1:11, we are designated as an inheritance; this means that we were chosen or assigned by lot. We were designated as a heritage to God for His enjoyment.

We were made an inheritance to inherit God’s inheritance.

On the one hand, praise the Lord, we are God’s inheritance for God’s enjoyment, and on the other hand, we were made to inherit God as our inheritance (v. 14) for our enjoyment.

How can we, human being, become an inheritance to God? In ourselves, we are sinful, fallen, and full of failures, mistakes, and sins; how can God inherit such ones?

God does not inherit our flesh, our natural man, our self, or anything of what we are by our fallen human nature; these are not His enjoyment for His inheritance.

What He inherits, what He enjoys in us, is the Christ that has been enjoyed by us, experienced by us, and wrought into us to be constituted in us.

God delights in Christ; He made us in the image of Christ, He made Christ our pattern, and we are conformed to the image of Christ for Him to be the firstborn among many brothers (Rom. 8:29).

Day by day, as we open to the Lord in big things and small things, we enjoy Christ and are constituted with Christ, and God’s element is wrought into us. As God is being constituted into us little by little, day by day, we are being made God’s inheritance.

And as we meet with the saints, we realise what are the riches of the glory of God’s inheritance in the saints.

God’s inheritance is in the saints; we need to see Christ in the saints, minister Christ to the saints, and help the saints to enjoy and experience Christ for God to have a rich inheritance in the saints.

Today we are in the process of being made God’s inheritance in full; there is some measure of Christ in us, but we still have a lot of what we are by nature.

However, Christ is working Himself into us, He is making His home in our heart, and He is making us the same as He is from within to without little by little, day by day. Hallelujah!

Oh, how good it is to see what the Bible says concerning us and realise that, even though in our nature we are sinful and fallen, Christ redeemed us, Christ came into us as life, and God made us His inheritance as His acquired possession!

He gave us to participate in all that He is, all He has, and all He has accomplished as our inheritance.

As we enjoy God as our inheritance, as we partake of the divine nature (1 Pet. 1:4) and eat Christ as the bread of life, drink Him as the living water, and breathe Him in as the breath of life, we become God’s inheritance for Him to enjoy!

What God enjoys is what we are becoming in Christ; He enjoys and delights in the Christ who is wrought into us and constituted into our being.

This is why God in a sense does not care for our failures, our sins, and our mistakes; what He wants is that, in all things and through all things, He would work Himself into us to make Christ everything to us.

As God works Himself into us a little more every day, He gains the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints; we enjoy God and God enjoys us as His inheritance! Praise the Lord!

Lord Jesus, we love You and we open to You. We want to enjoy You today. Thank You for being our inheritance for us to enjoy and participate in. Oh, how rich, all-inclusive, and wonderful our God is! Amen, Lord, we give ourselves to You to just enjoy You with all Your riches. Enlighten the eyes of our heart so that we may know what the hope of God’s calling is and what are the riches of the glory of God’s inheritance in the saints! Amen, Lord, thank You for purchasing us to be Your acquired possession, even Your inheritance! We open to You. Work Yourself into us. Make Your home in our heart. Eliminate anything of the fallen natural man in our being and constitute us with Yourself. Amen, Lord, may Christ grow in us. May the element of God increase in us so that we may become God’s inheritance in reality. Keep us in the process of being made God’s inheritance! Hallelujah, we enjoy God as our inheritance day by day and we are being made God’s inheritance for His enjoyment! Praise the Lord!

God Himself Within us Constitutes His Inheritance Among the Saints: we are Sealed with the Holy Spirit!

We may hear that we are becoming God’s inheritance and we may ask ourselves how much of what we are is worthy to be God’s inheritance. We may think that we are worth nothing, for we are not qualified for God to inherit us.

And we are right in thinking so, for in our natural being, our natural man, or in the flesh and the self, we are not worthy to be God’s inheritance.

The only precious One is the Triune God, and the only way we can be worthy to be His inheritance is by allowing Him day by day to spread more, permeate us more, and saturate us more.

Then, we become something precious, even something glorious, and we become God’s inheritance for His enjoyment. Can you imagine this?

We start as sinners in the flesh, having our natural man, and God acquires us for His possession. He wants to make us His inheritance.

He has an eternal economy to head up all things in Christ, and in this Christ He designates us as an inheritance, having been predestinated according to the purpose of the One who works all things according to the counsel of His will.

We hear the gospel, the word of the truth, and we are saved by believing into the Lord; as soon as we believe into the Lord, we are sealed with the Holy Spirit of the promise, who is the pledge of our inheritance, unto the redemption of the acquired possession, to the praise of His glory (Eph. 1:10-14). Wow, Hallelujah!

It is not of us: it is of Christ, who did all things for us and in us! The Holy Spirit sealed us – each one of the believers in Christ – to be the inheritance of God.

Even more, the Spirit is given to us as the pledge of our inheritance, for us to enjoy a foretaste of what God is.

The sealing of the Spirit indicates that God is being wrought into us. God is working Himself into our being.

Our hope is not in what we are but in what He is; our hope is in the eternal life. What we need to do today is cooperate with the divine life, enjoy it, and give more ground to God’s life in us. Only God is precious.

This precious God of matchless worth is working Himself into us to make us His glorious inheritance. Our enjoyment of Him makes us His enjoyment.

Our enjoyment of the divine inheritance consummates in our being made God’s inheritance. First, we inherit God, and as we enjoy Him, He is dispensing Himself into us and constituting us so that we become His enjoyment, His inheritance.

He is dispensing Himself into us continually to make us not only children of God and sons of God but even more, heirs of God! Praise the Lord!

The Spirit is sealing us continually; this seal is a living seal, not just a once-for-all seal but a seal that is living and moving.

As we contact the Lord day by day, as we open to Him in our daily living to just touch Him, the Lord as the Spirit is sealing us, impressing His image into us and dispensing His element into us.

When the Spirit is sealing us, He is leaving an image on us and He is dispensing His element into us; we belong to Him and we look like Him, and we are His inheritance as we enjoy Him as our inheritance.

Day by day we need to remain under the sealing of the Spirit. Often this goes along with the experiences of suffering; in the times of suffering, may we open to the Lord to seal us more and make us more like Him.

The precious God of matchless worth is working Himself into us to make us His glorious inheritance!

We are now in the process of being made the inheritance of God, for our enjoyment of God makes us His enjoyment! Amen, may we cooperate with the Lord for this today!

Lord Jesus, we want to cooperate with You today to become God’s inheritance for His enjoyment! Hallelujah, God has acquired us for His possession, and He has sealed us with the Holy Spirit of the promise, who is the pledge of our inheritance. Lord, we open to You. We want to remain under the sealing of the Holy Spirit. May we open to You throughout the day to be sealed with the Spirit more and more. Amen, Lord, work Yourself into us more today. Work Your essence and life into us so that we may become Your inheritance for Your enjoyment. Imprint Your image on us for us to be made just like You! Praise the Lord, we believers in Christ are being made God’s inheritance for His enjoyment! Amen, Lord, constitute Yourself into us more and more each day. Keep us open to You as we go through this and suffer many things! Hallelujah, the precious God of matchless worth is working Himself into us to make us His glorious inheritance! Hallelujah, God is our inheritance and we are becoming God’s inheritance by enjoying God and allowing Him to constitute us with Himself! Praise the Lord!
