TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: Romans 4: 13
For the promise, that he should be heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
GOODNEWS DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY 14TH FEBRUARY 2021
God promised Abraham that he would be the heir of the world. Now, don’t be too quick to say, “Well, that promise was made only to Abraham and not me.” The verse says, “For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.”
So the promise was not just made to Abraham, but to “his seed” as well, that is, you and I who belong to Christ—“And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:29). Notice that God did not say that you would be the heir of the country you are living in, but heir of the world!
The Greek word for “world” here is kosmos, which means the universe as well as the whole circle of earthly goods, endowments, advantages and pleasures. All these are yours to inherit through the righteousness of faith in Jesus and His finished work at the cross. This righteousness is given to you as a gift from God, so you don’t have to earn it through good works.
Don’t listen to people who tell you that you will only get to enjoy these blessings when you get to heaven one fi ne day. Why would you need riches in heaven? There, even the streets are made of pure gold (see Revelation 21:21). And why would you need healing in heaven? There is no sickness there. So you need the health and provision in the here and now! lay hold of your rich inheritance today. Jesus paid for it with His blood. Don’t push it all to the sweet by and by!
