Glossalaleo: Identity, Inheritance & Ability – Day 1

Identity, Inheritance & Ability

Ephesians 3:6

That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

The Bible reveals to us an amazing truth about 3 important things that we all need to learn, understand and be conscious of in our growth and development as God’s children. These are:

1. our identity in Christ Jesus

2. our inheritance in Christ Jesus

and

3. our ability in Christ Jesus.

There’s one particular scripture I discovered that sums it all up that has become one of my most favourite scriptures of Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

What’s striking is how the Apostle Paul was able to sum all these eternal truths in this one verse of scripture in Ephesians 3:6.

Now the KJV says that “the gentiles should be fellow heirs and of the same body and partakers of his promise in Christ through the gospel”.

In Christ you are a fellow heir, now that speaks of your inheritance. In Christ you are of the same body, which reveals your identity, and in Christ you are a partaker of his promise which refers to your abilities by virtue of the life that you have received.

It’s important for you as a child of God to know and understand these incredible truths of, who the gospel has made you to be, what the gospel has given to you and, how the gospel has empowered you to live.

In today’s session of Glossalaleo, we will take time to meditate and pray to ingest these incredible truths that the gospel of Christ has given us.

When you study the words that were used to reveal this truth, you’d discover and understand more clearly what the Spirit of God was trying to reveal to us about us. What the verse actually communicates is that you are a joint heir, joint body and a joint partaker of God’s promise through the gospel. Now that reveals more clearly what the KJV translators were indeed trying to communicate.

From today, be conscious of this truth. You are a fellow heir – joint heir, of the same body – joint body and partaker – joint partaker of God’s promise in Christ through the gospel.

Meditate:

Ephesians 3:6

That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs[joint-heir], and of the same body[joint-body], and partakers[joint-partakers] of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

Ephesians 3:6 NLT

And this is God’s plan: Both Gentiles and Jews who believe the Good News share equally in the riches inherited by God’s children. Both are part of the same body, and both enjoy the promise of blessings because they belong to Christ Jesus.

Pray:

I am a joint heir, a joint body and a joint partaker of God’s promise in Christ Jesus. I know who I am, I know what I have, and I know what I do in Christ, in the name of Jesus Christ. I share equally in the riches, I am part of the same body and I enjoy all of God’s promise of blessing made available to me in Christ Jesus.

The Perfect Will Of God

Romans 12:2
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Understanding the perfect will of God comes through first recognising who and what scriptures represent and their eternal significance and importance. Too many of God’s children do not yet understand what the scriptures are. The scriptures are language containers of the Spirit Word Of God. They contain the essence of the Spirit of the Creator Himself.

The scriptures are the perfect will of God. This means that they provide us with the accurate revelation of God’s intentions, plans and desires for a person, a people, a place, a time or a thing.

I grew up as Christian during a time where there was an understanding that the scriptures were the general will of God, and the Holy Spirit was the source of the perfect will of God. My spirit always had a problem with this, until I found out #whatthewordsays.

It’s important to note that the scriptures are the perfect will of God, and the Holy Spirit guides us into the specific details of His will. While the scriptures don’t explicitly tell us every specific choice or decision we should make, they are the perfect will of God and the source for which the Holy Spirit can direct us into the specifics. By aligning ourselves with the Word of God and following what it says, we can be assured that we are walking in His perfect will.

Jesus Himself valued the scriptures and acknowledged their significance. He had a relationship with the scriptures.  He declared that He came to fulfil what was written about Him in the scriptures. Jesus’ relationship with the scriptures demonstrates the importance of the written Word. If the scriptures were this important in Jesus’s life, how much more you?

It was written in the scriptures that Jesus would enter Jerusalem riding on a donkey, and He fulfilled this prophecy by instructing His disciples to bring Him a donkey that had been prepared. Jesus’ obedience to what was written of Him exemplifies His alignment with the perfect will of God. Therefore, it is crucial to meditate and rely on the scriptures for every aspect of our lives, as they reveal God’s perfect will for us, and in so doing the Holy Spirit will give us clear specifics of His will.

Prayer of Praise and Thanksgiving

Psalm 141:2 NIV

Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying:

for ever and ever!”

Pray The Word

Phillipians 1:6 KJV

Being confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ

Phillipians 1:6 AMP

I am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return]

Philippians 1:6 Expanded Bible EXB

God began doing a good work in you, and I am ·sure [confident; persuaded] He will continue it until it is ·finished [completed; perfected] ·when Jesus Christ comes again [on the day of Christ Jesus; the final day of judgment and reward]

Speak The Word

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your grace that You have lavished upon me in Christ Jesus, which empowers me. Thank You for this good work that You began in me from the first day that I believed up until now, and for Your confident assurance that You have confirmed within me—that You have pledged to fulfill. God, who has began this good work in me from the first day I believed in Him, is also executing it; He is performing it, and bringing it into completion in time for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
