WISDOM FOR THE DAY DEVOTIONAL

TOPIC: ENJOY YOUR HERITAGE IN CHRIST
“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.” Isaiah 54:17 KJV
God has given you the right to say, No! If somebody brings a parcel that is not yours, won’t you say return it to the sender? Sickness is not your parcel. Barrenness is not your parcel. Delay and postponement are not your parcels.
The Word of God is not giving you information on what God wants to do; rather, it is giving you information on what He has already done. The Word tells you what God has perfected in eternity.
It is your heritage to enjoy the good things of life. It is not Worldliness to enjoy the good things of life that Jesus died for. I am exhibiting the goodness of God. The clincher is that it is the heritage of the Lord. In case you are wondering whether you are qualified or not, the bible says that your right standing is not of you, it is of Him.
He gave you the right standing, and it is an everlasting righteousness. When we get to heaven, our righteousness, which we already received, will not increase in quality. It is the same one because what we have now came from heaven. That is why you must be established in it now.
Get good messages that open your eyes to your right standing with God. In the future, you will need it. My assignment in the last days of my life is to raise people who are going to dare the devil because they know who they are in Christ.
They will match with their eyes red and their shoulders squared into the very territory of the enemy, threatening him and making him understand that what God has done in them is perfect, and they are not willing to yield any ground. When you get such messages, listen to them until you become that sermon. It will be my joy to hear your testimony.
