Our Inheritance
Now I say that as long as the heir is a child he differs in no way from a slave, though he is the owner of everything. Instead, he is under guardians and stewards until the time set by his father. Galatians 4:1,2
Although this scripture is a part of a passage dealing with the fact that although Christ, our inheritance, was yet to come and we were under the guardianship of the law I would like to look at another angle.
I believe God has much for us for we are promised many things but the is a timing of all things.
Lacking maturity can hold the provision up. And just as a child tries to hurry up the growing up process and are unable to do so. We have to walk the distance in our own lives until provision in a particular area is manifested.
We will only frustrate ourselves and lose faith if we want what is ours before we are ready for what is ours.
The prodigal son wanted his inheritance early and although he received it, he squandered it because he was not mature enough to handle it with wisdom.
Don't frustrate yourself with insisting that you know timing better than The Lord, you don't. Yield and allow Him to be God! Amen!
