Days 15 - 21: INHERITANCE
The word 'inheritance' means something (property, wealth, assets) is passed on (inherited) at the owner’s death. When Jesus died on the cross for us, we gained all of Heaven’s ‘assets’ through His sacrifice. Everything that Jesus has as the Son of God is now available to us if we choose Jesus and give our lives to Him. Over these final seven days we will go over what we have inherited as children of God, through Jesus' sacrifice!‍

Day 15

I have gained eternal life

1 John 5:11-13 – God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know you have eternal life.

So many movies have been made about epic quests to find immortality. Just go watch any superhero movie. For a believer, this isn’t just science fiction, as eternal life is a promised inheritance from God to His children.

Our life here on earth is just a blip compared to all of eternity. The Bible says a day (here on earth) is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day. God says that we can know without a shadow of doubt that our eternity will be spent with Him, if we choose Jesus to be our Lord. Christ's sacrifice on the cross assures us of this! But not only will we get to spend eternity with Him, Jesus said to one of the robbers – who was next to Him at Calvary and asked Jesus to remember him – that eternity will be in paradise!

How precious it is to know that as children of God, when we leave this world, we are guaranteed to spend eternity with our Father in paradise!

Prayer: God, thank You for the gift of Your Son Jesus, and what He did on the cross for me. Thank You that through Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection, I now have eternal life with You. Jesus be the Lord of my life, forgive me for all my sins, and walk with me every day. In Jesus name, Amen.
