Our Inheritance is Christ

 “These are they whom the LORD commanded to divide the inheritance unto the children of Israel in the land of Canaan.”

‭‭Numbers‬ ‭34‬:‭29‬ ‭KJV‬‬

The LORD gave the inheritance of the land to the children of Israel, laying the exact boundaries.  Over the period of history, the Jews were dispersed from their land and went to far off places across the globe.  People thought the Word of God is just mythology and not going to happen, that God had made some mistakes.  Then, after the Second World War, the Jews were given the land of Israel, once again, and Jews are continuing to come back to their God given inheritance since 1948.  The nations surrounding Israel are hostile to them, but God’s Word is continuing to come to pass.  When Jesus was crucified in that horrendous death on the Cross, people thought how can anyone believe in someone Who claims to be God and cannot even save Himself.  Yet Jesus Christ conquered death to fulfill what God said earlier, “to open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in Me.”  To those of us, who have experienced faith in the living and resurrected Christ, Who forgave us our sins, we are confident of our inheritance as joint heirs with Him.  Hallelujah!
