Your Own Inheritance
by Judy Hitson

Joshua 24:28 NKJV So Joshua let the people depart, each to his own inheritance.

Own it!

What?

Your spiritual inheritance.

This year with a prayerful look through the Bible for verses on inheritance, I shared a different aspect each month. We could continue with other Scripture passages on this subject. For now, let’s review the different perspectives I wrote about on our spiritual inheritance: 

January – Thou Mine Inheritance (Lamentations 3:24 NLT)
February – We are God’s Inheritance (Psalm 33:12 NLT)
March – Thank God for Inheritance (Col. 1:12 NLT)
April – Inheritance as a Reward (Col. 3:24 NLT)
May – Land of Our Inheritance (Psalm 135:12 NLT)
June – Inheritance as a Promise (Eph. 1:14 NLT)
July – Nations as your Inheritance Psalm 2:8 NLT)
August – Joint Heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17)
September – Receive the Eternal Inheritance (Heb. 9:15 The Passion Translation)
October – Don’t Forfeit Your Inheritance(like Esau). (Gen. 25:33 NLT)
November – Don’t Waste Your Inheritance(like the prodigal son). (Luke 15:12-13 Voice)
December – Your Own Inheritance (Josh. 24:28 NKJV)

Question for you:
Are you persevering in the process of conquering the land of your inheritance over your enemies through victory in Jesus by His Spirit?

Now, let us own our own inheritance. Relish in the goodness and kindness of God who lavishes His love on us as His children. He is our greatest inheritance.

Ephesians 3:20-21 NKJV Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

Personal Prayer: Father, thank You for all You taught me this year on spiritual inheritance. I came to You as a student. You brought revelation and understanding in personal ways as I wrote month by month. You spoke of different facets on the inheritance You have for us as Your children. It amazes me. My heart is filled with gratitude for my own inheritance in Christ and sharing with readers what I have learned. Thank You Lord for Your word today on our own inheritance with the summary of different aspects You revealed. To You be the glory in Jesus name. Amen.

Closing Prayer: Father help us in the body of Christ to understand and do our part with You for our own inheritance as children of God. In Jesus name and by Your Spirit. Amen.
