PIDGIN SPIRITUAL INHERITANCE!
Ephesians 1:11–14
All tins dey happen as God
wont am and thru Christ, E choose us to bi en own pipol, bikos na so E plan am
from di time wen E kreate di world, 12so dat wi wey first bilive Christ, go dey
gi-am praiz and glory. 13Since una don hear di trut kon bilive Christ, God don
give una di Holy Spirit as special mark to show sey naim get una. 14God deposit
dis Holy Spirit for di tins wey wi go inherit, until di time wen E go save en
pipol, so dat all praiz and glory go bi en own.
This scripture make am clear
say our inheritance dey inside Christ Himself. E talk about purpose, calling,
and belonging. Inheritance mean legal transfer of property after person don
die. To “inherit” simply mean to take possession.
Psalm 16:5–6 say God Himself
be our portion. This verse show say inheritance no be thing, na God Himself. E
come make am personal and deep.
For New Testament, the word
inheritance mean blessings wey don move from earthly to spiritual level. Like
Colossians 1:13 talk, we don comot from darkness enter light, from physical
enter spiritual, and sinner become saint. Na the blood of Jesus give us this
new identity wey we need to access our spiritual inheritance.
As believers, our
inheritance begin the day Jesus die for cross — na the birthright of every
person wey the Holy Spirit don give new life. That birthright start the moment
person become born again (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Galatians 3:29 connect us to
covenant and promise — “If una belong to Christ, then una be Abraham pikin,
heirs according to promise.” This one tie us to the ancient promise of God —
our spiritual family line.
The ultimate inheritance na
the blessing of eternal life, like Matthew 25:34 talk. Every man wey dey in
Christ get special position through salvation to inherit eternal life with all
spiritual blessings — both for earth and heaven (Ephesians 1:3).
Inside this inheritance wey
we get in Christ, we don already become chosen, redeemed, sanctified, accepted,
loved, forgiven, filled with grace and with the Holy Spirit — and many more
blessings still.
Natural man dey always try
leave inheritance for im children (Proverbs 13:22), how much more God wey love
us pass any earthly father — He don prepare both physical and spiritual
inheritance for us, Him children.
For God kingdom, our level
different.
Ephesians 2:6 tell us say
part of our inheritance be say we die and rise again with Christ. Our inner man
resemble Christ spiritually, and our physical life suppose reflect Christ
behavior — for talk, attitude, and lifestyle. That one elevate us pass unbelievers,
above every principality and power.
We be heirs together with
Christ (Romans 8:17). This verse show our authority, identity, and shared
inheritance with Jesus.
To waka inside this
inheritance as people wey dey sit together with Christ, we need obey the
command for Genesis 1:28, to “dominate.” No matter where you dey for life, that
place no permanent. E no go harm you; na to shape you into full maturity in
Christ. Your current situation na work in progress inside God hand, to bring
you into your inheritance.
Unlike the prodigal son for
Luke 15:11–35, we no suppose rush collect our inheritance when we never mature.
The boy ask for him own share when the papa never die, but he no ready to
handle am. James 1:2–4 warn us say maturity na the real key to activating
inheritance.
Even when the boy waste
everything, the papa still wait eagerly for am to come back. That na just how
God dey look us when we wander comot from faith. God know say you no fit manage
your inheritance on your own, and even if you waste am, you no fit finish wetin
God store for you.
The Lord always dey ready for
us to return to our rightful path — the path of righteousness, dominion, and
daily victory. Na part of our spiritual inheritance, and na advantage wey only
believers get.
