For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV)
I’ve heard that banks around the world hold unclaimed riches, awaiting the heirs of these estates to come forward. Imagine having wealth and property due to you but without knowing about it, you never exercise your right to receive it. It is the same with the inheritance Jesus has won for you. Everything we need to know about our inheritance can be found in the Bible. But, just like a will, if you do not read it you will never know what you’re entitled to and therefore you will never receive it.
God’s Word is an unstoppable force. It does not just teach you what you are entitled to–it goes to work on your deepest beliefs. Those beliefs become challenged and changed, which enables you to live out all the blessings God has intended for you. You come to know that you have been given the authority to walk in health and prosperity. As you change what you believe in your heart, your ability to walk out those rights grows.
We all have wrong beliefs that hold us back but when you download God’s Word into your heart and mind, you replace those beliefs with truth.
The words in the Bible are alive. Like seeds, they may look dead but when you plant them inside you by meditating on them, you will grow great blessings— amazing peace, healing and joy.
