Your rich Father.

Judges 3
7 The Israelites did evil in the eyes of the LORD; they forgot the LORD their God and served the Baals and the Asherahs. 8 The anger of the LORD burned against Israel so that he sold them into the hands of Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram Naharaim, to whom the Israelites were subject for eight years. 9 But when they cried out to the LORD, he raised up for them a deliverer, Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, who saved them. 10 The Spirit of the LORD came upon him, so that he became Israel's judge and went to war. The LORD gave Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram into the hands of Othniel, who overpowered him. 11 So the land had peace for forty years, until Othniel son of Kenaz died.


How often do we forget the Lord and serve our own idols... our wants, our desires, our plans, our own ambitions? Each time we cry out to the Lord He hears us. And not only does He hear us, He saves us, He anoints us, and He increases our territory. God has given His children an inheritance, He has given us riches, but so often the world claims our inheritance as its own. The world uses our inheritance for worldly ambitions, for purposes unholy and unsightly in God's eyes.

Reclaim your inheritance. Reclaim the talents and the gifts and the self-confidence and the joy and the hope that God has given you.

The time is now, reclaim what is rightfully yours.
