HEIR OF ALL THINGS

“in these last days (God) has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world.”

Hebrews 1:2

Why is it important for us to know that Jesus is the heir of all things? In an age when it appeared the government had control over all things, God wanted the Hebrews to know that Jesus was the ultimate possessor of everything. He created the world and everything in it was ultimately His. It was important for the first century Christians to know. It’s important for us to know; for we are joint heirs with Christ. Perhaps God wants us to focus on what we’ve already inherited in Christ, the heir of all things. Perhaps He wants us to be assured of that which we have yet to inherit. 

LORD, I praise You for appointing Jesus as the HEIR OF ALL THINGS. I celebrate all that I have in Him and look forward in wonder and awe to that which I have yet to inherit. 

Why not record that which you’ve already inherited in Christ: your salvation, God’s love, forgiveness, a new family in the body of Christ, a new mind, the Holy Spirit, etc in Prayers of My Heart?
