RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. THE WORLD IS YOURS - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME. TUESDAY, JULY 5TH 2016.
Therefore,
let no man glory in men. For all things are yours (1 Corinthians 3:21).
Being
born again, there’s a high calling upon your life. Therefore, refuse to allow
your virtual circumstances make you think differently. Jesus said you’re not of
this world (John 15:19). He chose you out of the masses; out of the world;
you’re of a different breed. You’re an heir of God, and a joint heir with
Christ, which simply means, you own the world.
The
Bible says, “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and
they that dwell therein” (Psalm 24:1). However, God willed the whole world to
Abraham through the covenant He made with him and his seed. Galatians 3:16
says, “…to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, and to
seeds, as of many; but as of one, and to thy seed, which is Christ.”
Therefore,
God was looking beyond Abraham’s physical descendant; He was looking at Christ.
Galatians 3:29 says, “…if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs
according to the promise.” We’re the seed of Abraham and, by extension, the
possessors of all things. All the promises God made to Abraham, by which he
became the possessor of all things are fulfilled in us! As a result, the Bible
says, “Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; Whether
Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world…all are yours” (1 Corinthians
3:21-22).
Some
people may be fighting over lands and estates; but we own the world and we have
proof. If there’s anyone to tell who truly owns this world it ought to be God,
for He made the world, and appointed Jesus to be the heir of all things
(Hebrews 1:2). And He has said we’re joint-heirs with Him. Hallelujah!
Thus,
as a child of God, it’s not a mere boast but absolute reality when you say,
“The whole world is mine!” And this world that belongs to you, according to the
Bible, is full of the goodness of the Lord for you to enjoy (Psalm 33:5).
CONFESSION
I’m
a joint-heir with Christ and the seed of Abraham; the world belongs to me. I
don’t lack any good thing, because I’m an heir of God, and a joint-heir with
Christ. I lay up gold as dust, living in God’s superabundance, in Jesus’ Name.
Amen.
Further
Study: || Psalm 33:5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of
the goodness of the LORD. ||

John 10:10 AMP The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I
came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full,
till it overflows). ||
||
Galatians 3:29 and if you belong to Christ [are in Him Who is Abraham's Seed],
then you are Abraham's offspring and [spiritual] heirs according to promise. ||
