GOD’S HERITAGE
THE SEED
The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. Psalm 24:1
God is the owner of everything, and we are given a portion of what He owns. We enjoy both receiving and dispensing from His riches. The first verse of the Bible lists the earth, things on the earth, the world, and the living things on the earth as the four fundamental things that still belong to God. One could infer from these four items that the Bible indicates that Jesus Christ is the true owner of everything we possess, including ourselves (Colossians 1:16-17). Because of Jesus, everything exists (Hebrews 2:10). What Jesus intended when He created anything will determine how to use it. Knowing the root of everything teaches us how to use everything. You can never get beyond God, no matter how deep you delve into God’s riches, wisdom, or knowledge. More strong than God cannot be explained. Nothing is impossible for God and nothing is superior to God. Nothing can be given to God that isn’t already His. Everything is created by him, through him, and with His glory in mind. Dearly Beloved, it is crucial to understand that your possessions, wealth, and intelligence cannot save you; in fact, they all belong to God in any case!
PRAYER
Teach me to serve you with my substance and to surrender all I have for your use.
