Ezekiel 44:28 “I am to be the only inheritance the priests have. You are to give them no possession in Israel; I will be their possession”

Unfortunately in our world, mourning the loss of a loved one who has died is often interrupted by disagreements concerning the distribution of an inheritance. Wills are sometimes contested, lawyers are obtained, and court battles that divide families ensue.

There was one group of people, the priests, that the Lord determined beforehand would never have this concern. God declared that they were not to be given an inheritance in the land.

He wanted to give this group of people whom He had called to minister in His sanctuary something far greater. He wanted to give them himself.

Listen friends as believers in Christ, we are told in 1 Peter 2:9 that we are “a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God”. Therefore our inheritance stored up in heaven is far greater than we could even begin to fathom.

Prayer Suggestion: Dear Lord, I pray that You will open my eyes to see the rich inheritance I have in Christ Jesus.
