3. Right to Inherit Eternal Riches & Promises

(Galatians 4:7, Romans 8: 17 &32, 2 Corinthians 1:20 & 8:9, Ephesians 1:3, John 1:16)

We have not only been made as children of God but we have also been made as His worthy heirs. Truthfully speaking, we do not have a poor Father; we have the richest Father of all! And He will supply all our needs according to His riches and glory (Philippians4:19). We are not only heirs of the Father but we are co-heirs with Jesus Christ (Romans 8:17). There is much inheritance that is available to us. Do you know how blessed we are? John 1:16, tells us that "From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another" (John 1:16).And these blessings from the Lord, are the ones that carried us through our many tough and hard times. So stop having a "can't-do mentality" and start saying to yourself, "I can do it!" For you can do all things through Christ (Philippians 4:13). Stop acting as if you are not an heir, as if you do not have the heavenly riches, you've got a lot in your hands to be thankful for!

4. Right to Serve and Minister

(Galatians 5:13, 1 Peter 2: 16, Revelation 1:5-6)

One of the greatest rights God has extended unto us is the right to serve God in His kingdom. We used to be serving the enemy; but now we are serving the living God. This is a right that if we would know how to exercise fully, would be the very means by which we can enjoy a prosperous kingdom life! Jesus said that God will honor the one who will serve Him (John 12:26). That's why, we believers do enjoy a better and higher "quality or life" compared to our worldly counterparts given this vocation to be able to serve God. You see, serving God brings life, meaning and purpose to our existence. (Romans 6:21-22) and the more we engage in serving God, the more God bestows unto us these rewards.
