Romans: 8:17: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Being an heir is the key too who you are by whom you are heir from and his authority, rule, dominion power and Reign. Many people fanaticize about having an inheritance of wealth for their earthly pleasures wishing that they were rich. Yet, I rather am heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ than any amount of wealth on earth. Why are heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ the greatest and most magnificent assurance to have than anything else in the world? First of all being heirs of God is to have the blessings and promises He has given you through His word and many blessings He has already given you while living on earth in addition too His eternal glory in heaven waiting for you. There will also be more blessings for you in Jesus name while on earth. These blessings and promises are only for the child of God, it is not for the world or those who have not received Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Then you will have your joint inheritance with Christ is what Paul wrote to Timothy in 2:12, that if we suffer with Christ we will also reign with him. This means we will be glorified together with Christ and to be glorified with Christ is too; exalt to dignity in company with Christ. This has reference to our position after we overcome the world He will grant to sit with Him in His throne, even as He also overcame, and is sitting down with His Father in His throne, Revelations 3: 21. Additionally, Jesus Christ said; And he that overcomes, and keeps my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 27: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father, Revelations 2: 26, 27. Yet, while on earth our position has been given to us in the spiritual realm that is a promise to us too rule, reign and take dominion in the spiritual realm is where the war is already ready won and will take manifestation in the natural while on earth, Ephesians 2:6, 6: 10- 18. Meaning, you must use the promises of God through His word to bring you victory in your life right now and start speaking the word of God over your life, calling those things that are not as if they were and watch them manifest. Why, God has already made you an heir, to have the power to operate outside of this jurisdiction of life into the spiritual realm to get the victory over the enemy in Jesus Name…
