The best inheritance one can leave for the next generation is a Godly heritage. Buy the truth and sell it not, not just for your own sake but for your family and friends sake. We first must save ourselves, but without truth our family and friends will never be free from sin. More precious than any inheritance in financial status and wealth is to leave a testimony that you served God, and left that example to the next generation. That is an inheritance that will last. Truth is going to endure to all generations, so it is to our benefit to believe it and love it! Our only hope, our next generations only hope is in a right relationship with God. Is it always going to be easy to stand for what is right, and stand for what is yours? No! Sometimes the path is filled with resistance, because there is a real enemy. But GREATER IS HE that is in us! Naboth stood up against Ahab and wouldn't let him take his vineyard, even though Ahab gave great offers for it. Naboth wasn't for sale. Why? Because the vineyard was his inheritance. And he was lied against, and was killed. He stood his ground, and even though he died he did not lose his vineyard. Something far greater than death is for us to lose our love for truth, and for there to come a strong delusion that we would believe a lie. If we die standing for what is True, so be it! But we cannot lose our heritage, if we want to be a part THE CHURCH!
Psalms 112:1 Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
Psalms 112:2 His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
Our delight should be in the word of God!
Psalms 1:1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
Psalms 1:2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
Psalms 1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
Psalms 1:4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Psalms 1:5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
Psalms 1:6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
Delight in God and the things of God, and pass it to the next generation! Don't delight in the filth of this world. Don't love the ways of the world! Cant serve two masters! Don"t set evil before your eyes. Don't lust after the things God has said NO to! Have a Godly seed. He is the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob. Let this truth be passed on! It's the world's only hope! Cant be saved without obeying the word of God, must be born again of water and spirit! Must repent, be baptized in Jesus name and filled with the Holy Ghost! And from there grow! So stand for what is right! And don't forsake the old paths, nor remove the ancient landmarks! Make the decision for you and your house!
Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
Leave a Godly inheritance of Truth! Have backbone!
