Rom 8:15 – 17 For you have not received a spirit of bondage leading again to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons [the Spirit producing sonship] by which we [joyfully] cry, “Abba! Father!”
16The Spirit Himself testifies and confirms together with our spirit [assuring us] that we [believers] are children of God.
17And if [we are His] children, [then we are His] heirs also: heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ [sharing His spiritual blessing and inheritance], if indeed we share in His suffering so that we may also share in His glory.]
The word Abba in Aramaic corresponds to the english word daddy and this affirms our relationship of intimacy with God the Father whereby we address Him as Abba, as Daddy and the Spirit of God Himself gives us this assurance and CONFIDENCE
We are Abba’s children, and His Spirit reinforces that truth PERSONALLY to each one of our hearts. Just like in our natural family settings, when we become children, we become heirs of God and co-heirs with the pattern Son, our Lord Jesus Christ
The condition stated on that scripture to be co-heirs with Him denotes that we will share the inheritance, and also share the sufferings, and it reminds me about the parable about the pearl of great value, that a pearl is a product of suffering
Indeed we pay a price, we endure persecutions in market place careers or other settings, we have all endured suffering throught SARS and its impact in our world, we have prayed for healing of our bodies and if you survived in the USA like me you experienced even grocery shopping rationing
Indeed we have shared in the suffering of our Lord
But whats is it like to be a co-heir? my bible commentary so beautifully articulates that it does not mean that we each get a little fraction of the total inheritance
It means that Jesus as the first Son has the WHOLE inheritance and we SHARE the WHOLE inheritance with Him! Halleluya!
Each and every child of our heavenly Father has the RIGHT to the entire inheritance –>> the inheritance of Jesus is yours and mine! halleluya!
Why? because in the kingdom of God, His principles are governed by sharing, we do not each grab our portion, but we ALL share TOGETHER all that Abba has and all that our Lord Jesus Christ has
Then Jesus says this about HIS inheritance
[John 16:13 – 15 But when He, the Spirit of Truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth [full and complete truth]
For He will not speak on His own initiative, but He will speak whatever He hears [from the Father–the message regarding the Son], and He will disclose to you what is to come [in the future]
14He will glorify and honor Me, because He (the Holy Spirit) will take from what is Mine and will disclose it to you. 15All things that the Father has are Mine. Because of this I said that He [the Spirit] will take from what is Mine and will reveal it to you.]
All that belongs to Abba, belongs to the Son and the HOLYGHOST is the One that will reveal to us ALL that it is!
Him my best friend and your’s too if you have received Him[the Holyghost] is the administrator of the inheritance glory to God
Everything that will place us in the level of living as children of the King is hinged upon our relationship with the Holyghost
Its in our walk in fellowship with Him that we will access the inheritance
All that Abba has and all that the Son has! They share together and WE share together with THEM!
Ohhh and the fullness of what we have been given by right as children of God in Christ is EXTRAVAGANT, He is not a legalistic God, HE is not stingy, HE is generous with us!
See His EXTRAVAGANCE here –>> Rom 8:32 He who did not spare His own Son [Jesus], but delivered Him up for us all [the price He paid], how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?
When we receive Christ, GOD gives us all things FREELY, apart from Him [Jesus] we receive nothing!
The scope of our inheritance is that its absolutely FREE, we CANNOT earn it, we receive it as a free gift and it includes ALL things!
How I pray that everyone who stops by here will walk in and always pray in full knowledge that we are heirs of the TOTAL inheritance, ALL that Abba has, all that God the Son has, we welcome the Spirit of God to direct us, to reveal it, to manifest it, to speak to us and show it to us everyday
We already receive it all, and we give thanks for healing of our bodies from head to toe, for new levels in God for our ministries and walk with God experiencing never seen or heard miraculous supernatural signs and wonders, our businesses and careers supernaturally scaling and walking in ever increasing abundance and promotions, our legacy, lineage and generations coming after us living to please the GOD of Israel who walked with us and made indisputable impact in this lifetime. AMEN!
Rom 8:15 – 17 For you have not received a spirit of bondage leading again to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons [the Spirit producing sonship] by which we [joyfully] cry, “Abba! Father!”
