Our Inheritance!

Our Inheritance!
Monday, October 5, 2020 by Penelope Kaye

Hello, my dear friend!

The Scriptures are rich with blessings from the meaning for wait—bind together by twisting; gather together; patiently wait. As we begin a new month, let’s look at a verse in Psalm 37:

. . . But those who wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the earth. (Ps 37:9, NKJV)

What a promise from our great God! By spending time waiting on the Lord, we inherit the earth. I don’t think I can wrap my brain around this promise—inheriting the earth. What does that mean? What does that even look like? Why would God give us the earth?

To break this down a bit, we know God is a giving God. All the time. His biggest gift, of course, was Jesus, for all humanity, for all time. Why? He wanted His sons and daughters back in relationship with Him. All of them. Not just the ones who have their act together. Not just the ones who have the right ancestors. Not just the ones who have the best bank account. All of them.

And now He wants to give us the earth as our inheritance along with the ministry of reconciliation to restore every tribe, every people, every nation back to Him. Father God wants His children to come home. And our waiting on the Lord opens the front door for them to walk into His arms. We couldn’t ask for a better legacy.

Below are some questions to reflect and/or journal. Feel free to share your thoughts—I would love to hear from you.

What would you do with this inheritance from the Lord?
Who would you want to see walking through the front door?
How will this knowledge impact your prayer life?

Have a blessed week waiting on the Lord and receiving your inheritance!

I would give it away, to all the wounded hearts and hurting people. God's love, grace, and redemption is a beautiful gift I would gladly give to whoever would desire it themselves. I would want hungry people to walk through the front door. Father, bring them into my life.
