Heir of the World
Obadiah 1:17
New King James Version (NKJV)
Israel’s Final Triumph
17 “But on Mount Zion there shall be deliverance,
And there shall be holiness;
The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
People of the God needs to do something
- One thing is to they shall possess their possessions. Another thing is to posses it.
- One thing is to they shall inherit their inheritance. Another thing is to inherit it.
- One thing is to there shall be deliverance. Another thing is to be delivered
Many of the places in Israel rightly belong to Israelites which could be possessed by Jacob. But Jacob possessed only a part of it.
Heir
- One who receives his allotted possession by right of sonship

New King James Version (NKJV)
13 For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

Psalm 44:3
New King James Version (NKJV)
3 For they did not gain possession of the land by their own sword,
Nor did their own arm save them;
But it was Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your countenance,
Because You favored them.
- Both to the believers
- Romans : you cannot justified by the law
- Galatians : you cannot be sanctified by the law ( you cannot live a holy life by the law )
Two Covenants
Galatians 4:21-31
New King James Version (NKJV)
21 Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman. 23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the freewoman through promise, 24 which things are symbolic. For these are the[a] two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar— 25 for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children— 26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all. 27 For it is written:
“Rejoice, O barren,
You who do not bear!
Break forth and shout,
You who are not in labor!
For the desolate has many more children
Than she who has a husband.”
28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of promise. 29 But, as he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, even so it is now. 30 Nevertheless what does the Scripture say? “Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.” 31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free.

Exodus 23:25-33
New King James Version (NKJV)
25 “So you shall serve the Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you. 26 No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days.
27 “I will send My fear before you, I will cause confusion among all the people to whom you come, and will make all your enemies turn their backs to you. 28 And I will send hornets before you, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before you. 29 I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the beasts of the field become too numerous for you. 30 Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased (parah – fruitful ), and you inherit the land. 31 And I will set your bounds from the Red Sea to the sea, Philistia, and from the desert to the River.[a] For I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you. 32 You shall make no covenant with them, nor with their gods. 33 They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against Me. For if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”

Why still We haven’t inherited all our inheritance?
Why I haven’t received it?
Why its so slow?

First words of God
Genesis 1:28
New King James Version (NKJV)
28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
First words of God to men is Grace
Grace, 5 points
- Be Fruitful
- Multiply
- Fill the earth
- Subdue
- Dominion
E.g. Google
- First be fruitful : Motivate each of the employees to be Fruitful ( don’t look for expansion first )
- Multiply
- Then you will fill the earth with Brand name
- Then you can control it
- Control of a company / Church : May the control be in the hands of those who are meek, in the hands those who are righteous, in the hands of those who are kind and then you have dominion.
- Dominion not over the man. Dominion over the sky, the sea, the land
1. Righteousness of God by Faith
- When ever you says “I am the righteousness of God in Christ”, you inherit little by little
- Then you see things happen, for you, in you, through you and around you
- Get back the Righteousness consciousness.

New King James Version (NKJV)
29 For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves. 31 Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.
32 “So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified ( Believers ).
