ASK FOR YOUR INHERITANCE!
My father passed away 25 years ago. He had left behind a very large inheritance consisting of land, money and other assets. As his oldest son I would inherit the largest share of it. My stepmother and her three children then went behind my back, took my name off the list of names of his heirs, and took everything for themselves.
I could have taken them to court and would have won, and they would have lost everything, but I was reluctant to do so. I did not want to stand in court against my own relatives and lose my testimony of what Christ had done in my life. It was a lot of money, but my testimony was priceless, and I did not want to lose it, even for all the money in the world.
So, I went before the Lord and sought His face. I remember crying out to the Lord. He spoke to me and told me "Just let it go. I will take care of you!".
I thought of all the things that I could do with the money. Firstly, I had nothing saved for retirement; secondly, I wanted to put our three children through college; I also wanted to pay off our house etc. So, I cried out to God, "Lord! That money is my inheritance!"
That is when I heard a voice speak to me loudly and clearly. It said, "Ask of me, and I will give you the heathen as your inheritance, the ends of the earth as your possession". It was Psalm 2 verse 8.
I kept on hearing this voice for several days. Then I understood... the Lord wanted me to ASK Him for the heathen as my inheritance. It was one of the pivotal moments of my life. I began to cry out to God "Lord give me the heathen as my inheritance! I ask you for the nations!"
I let go of my earthly inheritance from my earthly father and cried unto my Heavenly Father for my heavenly inheritance........
Soon after that I had my first Gospel Crusade in one of the most unreached nations on earth where Christians are persecuted for their faith. I remember that first altar call with thousands of hands raised up to the air in surrender to Jesus. I then heard the Lord say, " You see, THIS is your inheritance. This land where you are standing is your possession!"
We held many Gospel Crusades in that nation, the Lord confirming the Gospel message with astounding and amazing Signs following. Even the government there did not dare stop me. We planted 178 churches all over that nation.
That day when I refused to fight my family in court for my earthly inheritance and took hold of my Heavenly inheritance was a turning point in my life and my ministry. Since then I have seen huge multitudes come to Jesus, the lame walk, the blind see, the deaf hear, even the dead come back to life.
Since that day, at every altar call that I give, I look at the multitudes giving their lives to Jesus. I look at the precious souls that God calls "the precious fruit of the earth"; my soul leaps within me. I hear the Father say, "THIS my son is your inheritance".
I get richer and richer with every soul who comes to Jesus!
God has been good to us, and we are thankful to Him for all that He has done and continues to do for us. We are abundantly blessed and have everything that we need for this life and to be able to do the things that God has called us to do. We have come a long way and are grateful for His work in our lives.
Thank God for the Gospel of Jesus! Thank God for the precious blood that Jesus shed upon the cross that sets us free! Thank God for the Holy Spirit! Thank God that He is faithful to all His promises!
Glory be to our Lord Jesus for evermore!
