In the Bible, special importance is attached to everything that is firstborn — the firstborn among people, among cattle, and the first fruits of the earth. The main purpose of the firstborn was that they were the bearers and owners of spiritual and physical blessings, as well as the promises of God. Birthright is directly related to heritage. Jesus is the firstborn, He is the one who introduces you and me into the inheritance of God through his birthright! The legacy of His birthright is sufficient to cover and atone for any of our shortages, any blunder and any of our bankruptcies.
