Week 4 Day 17 - March 24
/The law of inheritance is greater than the law of sowing and reaping.
Recently I was listening to a message by Kris Valloton and this is the little gem the Lord dropped into my spirit. In the message Kris was talking about there are 3 levels to life. 1. curse - you do the right thing but the wrong thing happens. till the soil but it produces thistles. 2. sowing & reaping - you get what you planted 3. inheritance - I get what someone else worked for.
We know that we have been redeemed from the curse by Jesus Christ. But too often, we relegate ourselves to sowing and reaping. I am not advocating that this principle is unnecessary, I am just stating that there is a greater one. You are responsible for what seeds you sow. But the greater reality lies in realizing that you are a son. Son's have inheritances. They steward their own seeds, but they also get to reap their Father's. They get to inherit what Jesus paid for.
Our businesses will tend to pull out of balance towards striving if we only operate out of sowing and reaping. It is when we step into sonship and receive our inheritance that we get to move faster than others. Sons have things that orphans never will simply because of what their Father releases.
Why do you think that the reaper will overtake the sower? Until I heard this message, I had always thought that the reaper and the sower were the same person. But what if, the sower is operating out of one law (law of sowing and reaping) and the reaper is operating out of another (the law of inheritance)? Fathering and mothering is vital. Integral in fact to multiplication. Sonship is necessary to receive. So today I want us to ponder these things...
1) Where has my Father in heaven been preparing an inheritance for me? What has He been doing in my industry/company that He wants me to receive?
2) Have you ever received something that you did nothing for? An inheritance, a gift, etc...? Sometimes we struggle with receiving because this part of leaving our orphan selves is difficult. Ask Jesus if to help your heart to rest and receive. Ask Him what inheritance He wants to give you.
3) Businesses will grow when we submit our selves to be sons. Yes, we have our Father in heaven. But do you have a mentor/father in your business? If not, begin to petition heaven.
Inheritance was and still is the fullness of the laying on of hands. Healing, through laying hands, was just part of our inheritance from Jesus/Father. Inheritance was so important that Jacob stole Esau's birthright and the blessing that came with it. Don't forget to submit yourself to receive your Father's blessing ...His inheritance that He laid up just for you and the work of your hand.
Bless
__________, I bless your spirit to receive a unique blessing from the Lord. I bless you to rest and receive your inheritance. I bless you to be surrounded with mothers and fathers in the faith and in in your industry. I bless you to walk as a son, fully receiving what Jesus laid up for you.
Declare
I declare that i am a son of the most High God. I choose to lay aside striving and I will walk in the rest that comes with inheritance. I purpose to steward my inheritance wisely, and the seeds I sow will now be with a legacy mindset. I will make decisions in my business out of the inheritance mindset and it will open doors for me that no man can shut.
