In this powerful message, Pastor Adeboye teaches about who an Heir of God is and looks into inheritance from three unique perspectives: biological, spiritual, and divine.
Biological Inheritance explores the biblical principle of material and spiritual blessings from parents, emphasizing the firstborn’s entitlement. The story of Isaac blessing Jacob (Genesis 27) demonstrates the lasting impact of parental blessings.
Spiritual Inheritance: Understand the importance of blessings imparted by spiritual mentors, or “spiritual fathers.” The example of Elisha requesting a double portion of Elijah’s spirit (2 Kings 2:9-15) highlights the power of receiving spiritual inheritance from godly mentors.
Divine Inheritance: Herein lies the greatest inheritance that comes directly from God, the name of Jesus Christ. With limitless material and spiritual blessings, granting believers the power to perform miracles and overcome obstacles (Philippians 2:9-11, Mark 16:17-18).
Requirements for True Inheritance: Not everyone who claims to be a Christian is recognized as a true child of God. A genuine relationship and true surrender to God are crucial to being recognized as His heir and receiving His blessings (2 Timothy 2:19, Acts 19:11-17).
