You Are in God’s Will: How to Receive Your Divine Inheritance

"In whom also we have obtained an inheritance because we were predestined according to the purpose of God, who works all things after the counsel of Divine Will." Ephesians 1:11

   Affirmation: My health is optimal because it’s God’s will that all of my relationships are harmonious.

   Ephesians 1:11 reminds us that we have obtained an inheritance through Christ. If earthly parents and grandparents can leave behind an inheritance of tangible and intangible value land, homes, recipes, wisdom, or even prayer, how much greater is the inheritance from our heavenly Father? An inheritance implies that someone thought of you before their passing, made intentional plans, and had a desire for your future. Similarly, God was thinking of you before time began. Before creation itself, God had a will for your life, a good, pleasing, and perfect will.

   You are not an afterthought. You are a divine idea, a word spoken from the mouth of God before you took physical form. God predestined you with purpose and intentionality. His will for you includes absolute goodScripture confirms this in 3 John 1:2: "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth." This verse reinforces that God's will for you includes prosperity, health, and inner well-being.

   Your divine inheritance includes:

  • Optimal Health: You are the temple of the living God. It is God’s will that you are healed and whole.
  • Harmonious Relationships: When you please God, even your enemies will be at peace with you.
  • Overflowing Wealth: God gives you the power to get wealth so that you may live in abundance, overflow, and more than enough.

   Unlike human wills that can be contested, God’s will is absolute and unchangeable. No one can override it. No force can void it. It was sealed with your name in mind. Your inheritance is already yours, go get it.  Donald Lawrence put it best in his song: “Get your inheritance it’s yours, it has your name on it.” Claim it with boldness, knowing that God’s will cannot be revoked. You are in God’s will, and His will for you is good.

📖 Reflection: What inheritance have your foreparents—natural and spiritual—left for you?

💡 Action Step: Take time today to reflect on and affirm the parts of God’s inheritance you are claiming—health, harmony, and abundance.

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...
  The Kingdom is About Growth (Matthew 13:24-30)   The kingdom is about growth, not condemnation, judgment, sin, abomination, transgression, or iniquity. The kingdom of God is about growth. Jesus said it is like wheat and weeds, or "tares," as some versions say. As you grow, once you plant a seed in the ground, you don’t just get what you get; you also get weeds. As you keep growing, you will outgrow any behavior, any way of being, seeing, thinking, speaking, or acting that is not like God; you will outgrow it. Stop trying to pull up the weeds and keep growing. Stop trying to put people out of your life because some of the people you think are weeds are really wheat, and some of the people you feel are wheat might not be. Just keep growing, and it will automatically separate. Jesus said the growth in the kingdom is like a mustard seed. It starts as the smallest seed, but it’s potent. So do not despise the days of small beginnings; keep growing. Don’t compare yourself to a...
