(NOTE: In the CB entitled- "Rearranged Plans" the scripture reference should have been Exodus 13:17)
"The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints". Ephesians 1:18
The Bible tells us that there is an eternal inheritance laid up for those who are born again and serve the Lord. But we also get to enjoy the benefits of that inheritance here and now. This morning when you woke up, you woke up to an inheritance- a spiritual inheritance. That inheritance includes peace, strength, grace, mercy, benefits, provision, etc. It is all available to you-- it belongs to you. The question is, "What are you going to do with your inheritance today?".
Are you going to use it? Are you going to hold on to it for another time, or a rainy day? Are you going to ignore that it is there? The Lord daily loads us with benefits. They are there for the asking. They are there for us to use. They are there to help meet the needs that we have. For example, when you face fear today, are you going to "withdraw" peace from your inheritance and get rid of the fear? Or will you let peace "set in the bank" and allow fear to take over? If you need strength today, will you make a withdrawal on your inheritance and use the strength that is available for you?
This inheritance you have is inexhaustible. It is there for you to use. It has been provided for and paid for fully by the blood of Jesus. God doesn't intend for you to let it sit there unused. It is a gift from the Father to you. He wants you to "cash it in" and use it in order to walk in abundant life each day.
Have a great day. Are you withdrawing from your inheritance each time you need it, or are you letting it just sit there?

"Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ". Colossians 3:24
"For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God". Ephesians 5:5
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time". 1 Peter 1:3-5
