What is My Inheritance


Listen Later

This message is a compelling journey through Psalm 16 that answers one of life's deepest questions: What is truly mine in the end? Everyone wants to leave behind or receive something of value—but not everyone possesses an inheritance worth having. David declares, "The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance." This sermon unpacks the astonishing truth that the believer's inheritance isn't just a place in heaven—it's God Himself. At salvation, the vault of heaven is opened to the repentant sinner. Forgiveness is granted, identity is changed, and eternal life begins—not just someday, but right now. Through vivid historical illustrations—like Hetty Green's fortune, Roman adoption, and the tragedy of Jim Jones—the message contrasts the riches of a believer's inheritance with the devastating loss of those who follow false peace and reject Christ. In three powerful movements, this message shows: The Inheritance at Salvation – Adoption, forgiveness, and eternal life as gifts of grace. The Riches After Salvation – Ongoing fellowship with God, spiritual blessings, daily guidance through the Spirit, and growth in grace. The Tragic Loss Without Salvation – False peace, judgment, spiritual poverty, and eternal separation from God.
