In Mark 7, Jesus told the Siro-Phoenician woman to let the children have their fill first, for it is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.
In other words, it is God’s children who have a right to the inheritance,
they are the ones who deserve to receive the blessing.
We must also reveal that the Syro-Phoenician woman did not let herself be distracted,
she was determined to be accepted in order to benefit from the inheritance.
We must recognise that we are privileged in the eyes of the Lord.
The Bible also tells us that the Lord sent the children of Israel to Canaan because he wanted to give it to them to possess.
After the fighting, they were able to settle.
Some tribes were also allowed to choose their own territories.
What we want to say to each other this morning is simple,
Let us learn to give thanks to God for what he gives us.
Inheriting from our God means that we have not been disinherited,
we share the same family.
Many of us wait for a parent to die so that we can finally take their possessions, but we never take the time to look after what we have received and to give thanks.
We are saved because of Jesus.
We are restored because he agreed to take our infirmities upon himself.
His sacrifice is worth throwing ourselves at his feet,
His love is worth our giving thanks every day.
So let us know that the Lord’s gift is priceless,
it is extraordinary.
Bless the Lord for the inheritance he has given you as your father.
Colossians, 1:12 – Give thanks to the Father, who has enabled you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light,
If Jesus had refused suffering and then death, we would not have been able to have access to the blessing.
So let us say thank you for his faithfulness,
Let us say thank you for his love,
Let us say thank you for his protection.
Father, thank you for everything.
May the glory be yours.
Good day to all
Good day to you
