Ephesians chapter number 1 verse number 11 says in whom meaning in him in Christ we have obtained an inheritance being predestined according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will that we should be to the praise of his glory who first trusted in Christ in whom ye also trusted that after you heard the word of Truth The Gospel of your salvation in whom also after you believed you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of Promise which is the earnest of our inheritance until the Redemption of the purchased possession unto the praise of his glory now I want you to focus again in verse number 11 and then Focus again in verse number 14 in him we have obained Ed on that obtained not obtaining but obtained and then it goes in verse number 14 says the spirit which is the earnest of our inheritance until the Redemption of the purchased possession unto the praise of his glory the spirit of God has apprehended me and I've made this statement a few times while I preached the last few years but I did not grasp the fact that I was not making just a statement but the Lord was giving me a mandate and through this last season he has told me wherever you go I want you to preach this to the body of Christ now of course sometimes I go places and they already have something assigned they want me to preach on this or preach on prayer or preach on you know uh relationships or whatever but he says unless you've been given an assignment like that wherever you go I want you to preach this word to my body so this message today is for the Saints this is for the Saints matter of fact Paul starts in Ephesians saying to the Saints who are at Ephesus so this is address to the saints of God and so the Mandate that he has given me he said it's to bring my church from Deliverance into inheritance right that we have to transition from Deliverance into inheritance which means you were delivered for an inheritance and if you don't get the inheritance then you have now squandered the Deliverance because God never brings you out of anything except to bring you into something which is why he fired a whole generation in the wilderness he fired them I don't know if you know it or not but God will fire you he loves you but he will fire you he brought them out of Egypt and he brought them out of Egypt because he said there's a land I got flowing oh yes with milk and honey and there's some jebusites and there some parasites that that are in my land and I want them out of my land that I gave to you so I'm not delivering you from Pharaoh only but I'm delivering you into Canaan oh my God and the church after all these years we are still wondering around in the wilderness somewhere between Out of Hell thank God for it but not experiencing what you came out four God did not save you just to save you he saved you because you are now recipients of a life that you and I cannot even fathom and it's time for the body of Christ to quit being satisfied being saved without my stuff got to get my stuff everybody shout stuff stuff I want my stuff so to the saints of God The Plea is don't just come out go in possess it because there is an inheritance and so when he started giving me this he gave me one of the most amazing Revelations I've been reading this Bible you know you know I'm 55 and I've been preaching almost 35 years I've been reading for 35 years and I never saw this like I saw it and he showed me where the hangup has been he showed it to me the spirit revealed it to me and it is in this verse the moment the Church of Ephesus gets saved Paul begins to tell them now what they have been saved into and he starts out in Hebrews chapter number one saying you have been blessed with all spiritual blessings in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus and then he starts telling them you got Redemption through the blood forgiveness of sins you got adoption you got all of those things and then he drops down to verse number 11 and says and in Christ you have obtained an inheritance and this inheritance is something that you got the moment you got saved so what I'm about to preach to you is not something that God is going to give you it's something he's already given you you already possess it it's just that you've been wasting it and he said to me tell my church that they are wasting my inheritance and so today you're going to have to get rid of what I call false humility it's permeating the church where we walk around and act like I don't want much I don't need much I'm just a sinner saved by grace and I'm just glad to make it in and Jesus says excuse me that would be okay if you hung on the cross and if you took the thorns and if you took the nails but you didn't I did and I died to leave you something and somebody going to get what my blood paid for you see the blood didn't just wash away your sins it also delivered you into an inheritance somebody's got to get this and we got to get delivered from false humility we got to get delivered why because what I'm about to preach to you the Bible says that Jesus did this according to the good pleasure of his own will he decided this for us we didn't even ask for it he chose to give you an inheritance so for you not to receive it is not for you to be humble for you not to receive it then means you are wasteful if I've already provided something for you and you don't partake of it because you're saying I don't require all that I'm like excuse me I paid for it and if I already paid for it and gave it to you if you don't take it you ain't wasting my money I'm going to find somebody to give it to and I'm telling you church I'm telling you there's a generation here right now where God is searching the Earth to and fro saying somebody going to get this somebody's going to have that somebody's going to walk in it and you might as well make up in your mind that that's going to be you today we are coming after what I call everything we coming after everything if it's healing I want it if it's Deliverance I want it if it's blessing I want it if it's power I want it if it's Authority I want it I ain't leaving nothing out I did not get saved not to get my inheritance didn't do it didn't do it and so I begin to see it in this verse where the hangup has been and I want you to look at verse number 14 and and I saw the hangup and then I'm going to ask you in just a moment to put it up in the in the Amplified Bible it says in verse number 14 we have and received this inheritance and then it says well let me go and put it up in the Amplified Bible put put put that up in the Amplified Bible I want you to see this I want to read it for you out of the Amplified go to verse number 11 if you would and I'm going to read those very same verses back to you verse number in him you were also made God's Heritage see this is why I don't understand how you can have low self-esteem low self-esteem is is a sign that you never shifted identity I don't come to have time for that in him you were made God's Heritage God's portion we have obtained inheritance for we had been for ordained Chosen and appointed beforehand in accordance with his purpose who works out everything in agreement with the counsil and design of his own will I love that verse every time every time I read that I have to pause and just give God a fist bump right here because it says he works out everything in agreement with the counsel and design of his own will that's amazing which means when God decides something he agrees with himself about what he decided and he never asked anybody to agree with him about what he decided because he comes into agreement with himself what kind of God can come into agreement with him about something and he said I chose this for you out of what I agreed to what I decided out of my own counsel isn't that amazing that God said out of my own counsel those that would get born again I decided that I would give them an inheritance out of my own counsel I chose to do this and then it says uh next verse so that we who first hoped in Christ who put our confidence in him have been destined and appointed to live for the praise of his glory let me pause right there because you got to understand that see this is why he decided to do it out of the counsel of his own will to leave those of us an inheritance who received him it it's because God says I want to make sure y'all represent me right Christianity is suffering from poor representation it ain't even from preaching we got more churches we got more sermons we got internet we got social media but yet we are being less effective in the enemy is taking more ground than he's ever taken because we are speaking the message without being the message and the Bible says when God got done with the church he said you would be Witnesses of me we have got to change our Paradigm in the church we have taught the church to go witnessing knock on doors hand out tracks nothing wrong with that I did it when I was a pastor we LED groups out to go and compel people to come but he did not say you will go witnessing he said you will be Witnesses oh yeah come on and the problem is we got people witnessing who are not Witnesses and the witness is supposed to be your life which means you're not supposed to be just handing out tracks you're supposed to be the track that when people see your life and they see the hand of God and the glory of God and the power of God and the goodness of God on you they're supposed to look at you and say everything about you must be the Lord's doing and it's marvelous in my eyes he says I want you to be to the the praise of my glory I need you to look at your neighbor and say neighbor you need an upgrade in glory come on tell you need an upgrade in glory he he he he says he says y'all won't even let me set this up I'm just pouring the concrete this is the foundation he says I want you to be to the praise of my glory that when people look at your life your life is a representation of my glory God says we've got to just flip it from us bragging on him thank God we give him glory we give him honor we give him all praise but he says I also want to look at you and begin to tell Sinners look what I did right there he he he says I want to brag on you a little bit is there anybody in here that says I want to be a living testimony of what it looks like when God blesses a life oh I got to have it I got to have it I got to have it I got to have it now go to the next verse please because I got to set this in in him you also after you heard of the GL the word of the Glad Tidings the gospel of your salvation having believed in and adhered to and relied on him you were stamped with the Seal of the long promised Spirit everybody say the promised Spirit Now read this next verse carefully because we're going to see the disconnect next verse please the spirit is the guarantee of our inheritance the first fruits The Pledge the foraste the down payment on our heritage in anticipation of its full Redemption and our acquiring complete possession of it to the praise of his glory my God and I saw it I saw it I saw it I saw what's been holding us back from receiving what God wants for us it's that through that verse when the Bible say says the spirit is the earnest of our inheritance what you're reading in those adjectives what you're reading in those descriptions what you are reading is the Greek word a Haron and it means put that up on the here it is right here it means uh first fruits pledge foraste down payment uhoh uhoh he says to all my saints that have received me I've given you an inheritance but through this verse it tells us that our inheritance comes in two installments all right all right there is a full payment and a down payment the spirit is the guarantee of our inheritance the first fruits the play us the fourth and the down payment of our heritage in anticipation of the full Redemption and our acquiring complete possession of it to the praise of his glory this is all I'm going to talk to you about in this first service cuz this is all you can take Lebanon listen to me that means our complete Redemption and our complete inheritance comes in two installments there is a down payment and a full payment and what we have been missing is that the previous generation basically preached to us the full payment the full payment is heaven all right anybody glad about heaven heaven heaven and they preached it to us didn't they they preached it to us a little boy growing up I heard about heaven I heard about heaven I heard about he songs about heaven when we all get to heaven what a day of rejoicing that will be when we all see Jesus we'll Sing and Shout the victory where my old Saints at who know songs like that they don't know nothing about that in this generation they they they don't know songs like bye in by when the morning comes when all yeah of God are we'll tell them how we overcome because we'll understand it better look at everybody everybody under 30 looking at me like what what what what is that Maverick City sing that is that is that elevation no no no that's old school stuff like that they they they sing songs in the coic church like after a while it'll all be over after a while the sun going to shine after a while dark clouds will pass over and we'll shout hallelujah after a while soon and very soon come on you know that we're going to see the king hallelujah hallelujah we're going to see the king and we sing all those songs about heaven about heaven because Heaven Is the End Game Heaven streets of gold Heaven Gates of pearl heaven where there'll be no more sin there'll be no more sorrow there'll be no more sadness there'll be no more sickness there'll be no more any of that heaven heaven is the full payment the Bible declares if we only have hope in this world then we are of most men miserable why because there is another part after this that the only way to get the full payment is to get out of this real and into the next real and if there is a full payment waiting this is why Paul said to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord that's why when loved ones die you've got to change your perspective from just crying to also shouting because when loved ones die they don't cease to exis they just move into another greater level and dimension of their inheritance you can't get everything God has for you until you get out of here and so when Saints die they don't die they get paid they they get paid they move into a dimension where they say this is what I was born for this is the glory of God this is the image of God and Heaven is for real and I am not here to diminish heaven but they preached heaven and they preached heaven and they preached heaven and they preached heaven until we thought the totality of what our Christian experience was was to get born again and then wait for heaven and even though that message is right and it is good some of y'all ain't going to heaven for another 20 30 40 years that generation preached the full payment what they did not preach was the down payment they preached the full payment until when my grand when my grandmother was dying of cancer I walked into her room in the nursing home getting ready to pray I had prayed myself up full of Faith to go in there and lay hands on her curse that disease and raise her up and when I walked in and laid my hands on my grandmother something amazing happened to me when I put my hands on her she shook her head she couldn't even talk she was so weak she couldn't even talk she shook her head and she begin to frown and I was like grandmother what what what's wrong what did I do do you not want me to pray for you and she was like don't pray for me and I thought at that moment isn't that amazing for somebody to be so convinced about heaven that they won't even receive a prayer for healing because they ready to go and I saw at that moment that what she had believed was real to her she was saying I'm ready to go I don't want to be here let me go don't even pray for me because I'm ready to claim my inheritance but then when I walked out of the room the spirit of God hit me and said this is what I want you to see about my Saints she had enough Faith to believe me for heaven as a full payment but not healing as a down payment now if you're ready to go go we'll shout you right on out but the reality of it is is that most of us don't believe him for healing like we believe him for heaven because all we have been taught is the full payment but Jesus says I left you a down payment which means before you get to heaven I want to give you a pledge a foraste and a down payment of it which means Heaven is what you get when you leave the Earth but he says a down payment of Heaven is what you get in the earth and I came to tell you while we've been waiting to go God's been ready and waiting to manifest for Taste down payments manifestations uh of Heaven in the Earth so I got good news for you before you get to heaven you're about to start pulling it down into the Earth real because heaven is the full payment but manifesting thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven is the down payment and just as sure as we are about the full payment my assignment is to get you just as sure about the down payment yes sir yes sir and here it is here it is are you ready for it are you ready for it here it is here it is God designed be seated please give me one moment God designed for his Saints you must understand that in the old Covenant they couldn't get a down payment because they were all sinners born under Adam Jesus comes to the Earth dies on the cross and all of them before Christ couldn't get a down payment they could only receive it when they got to heaven and that's why your Bible says now we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses what are they looking at they trying to look at the fact that you get to live in what they couldn't have you get to have portions of your inheritance here they couldn't have that this is only after the resurrection so now watch this and then I'll have you set up because the assignment is to convince you of this inheritance next service I'm going to tell you what's in it so now the Bible says for those of us after the resurrection Jesus has arisen with power with authority with dominion and the Bible says now Jesus has become the heir of all things that's what happened in the resurrection that when Jesus rose from the dead he became the heir of all things and the Bible says the mystery that God was working in the Redemption of Christ and the resurrection and the Ascension of Christ was to bring all things underneath one man which means Jesus is over everything there is nothing that outranks him there is nothing in which he does not have authority over he owns it all when the spirit of God revealed this to me I was in my living room and he says Isaac y'all got to think deeper he says when I talk about the fact that I'm over everything he says y'all are not understanding I'm over everything everything is underneath me principalities Powers mights dominions Thrones everything the Bible says in heaven and on Earth in this age and the age to come and he said something to me real strange he said look upside your wall look up look up your wall look up your wall I looked up the wall he said the paint on that wall is under me which means molecules matter everything is Underneath Him the stuff you have to have a microscope to see it's under him too which means there ain't nothing that does not respond to him him y'all don't hear what I'm saying he is over it all and God put all of it underneath him and then gave him to us as an inheritance right there we now are hires of God and Joint HS with Jesus which means if Jesus owns it all without Jesus I get nothing but with Jesus I get ear which means if he's over it and I'm with him I'm over it too and it's time for you to let Devils know that you are about to assume your position over all things you're about to start talking to stuff and speaking to stuff and decreeing things and declaring wait a minute so so let me give it to you so let me give it to you and then I got to go listen to this and so now did y'all put some more time on there or something okay I thought now watch this watch this watch this watch this and so the Bible says Jesus made us now hes of him those of us now that have received him we don't have to wait to get to heaven now we get down payments in the Earth this was his Heritage to you he says now that you've received me I'm not going to wait for you to get here to start getting what I have received I'm going to start giving it to you in the earth realm everybody say we are the generation of inheritance and the Bible tells you how he did it and it's been there the whole time but you're going to have to change the way you think the Bible says that spirit is the guarantee of our inheritance oh my God everybody say the spirit the spirit say it again the SP Spirit say it again the spirit y'all the Holy Ghost was not given to us just so we can fall out in church because we fall under the power but we don't live under it the Holy Ghost wasn't given for church services the Holy Ghost was given for down payments of Heaven on the earth and the Bible says that when when Jesus sat down at the right hand of the Father the father sent the Holy Ghost to you and the Holy Ghost is the down payment which means ain't nothing else coming for you because everything you need is in the Holy Ghost look at this transition Jesus goes to the right hand the holy ghost is now sent from the right hand into the Earth realm and he is the down payment of Heaven y'all listen to me we are wasting an age with the Holy Ghost you won't need the Holy Ghost when you get to heaven God sent him to you right now and he is here as the minister of inheritance which means the spirit's assignment is to take those things which are in heaven and Minister them to you in the earth and I saw it I saw it I saw it the difference between full payment and down payment and how the spirit takes those things which are in heaven and ministers them to us in the earth and so I start thinking when I get to heaven when I get to heaven what will I have a lot of people say when I get to heaven I'm going to have victory over the enemy and I tell people all of the time no you won't you won't need no victory over the enemy cuz he won't be there victory over the enemy is for down payment y'all don't hear what I'm saying which means this is the only generation you can kick devils and some of us have been wasting God's Authority in this generation but not after today you going to let the devil know it's my inheritance to cast you out and I saw it I saw it everybody stand I saw it stand up in Lebanon I saw it I saw it that when I get to heaven I'm going to have a glorified body I'm going to have a glorified Soul when I get to heaven I'm going to walk on streets of gold when I get to heaven I'm going to have Gates of pearls when I get to heaven my mind is going to be at total peace when I get to heaven when I get to heaven and I saw it that in the earth realm God says I can't promise you a glorified body because you don't get a glorified body until you leave this planet you understand that's is why when Jesus was resurrected and when he came back he walked right through the wall he didn't even come through the door he just walked through the wall cuz he had a glorified body it was not subject to matter it was not subject to laws he just walked through the wall and then ate some fish once he got on the inside that's a glorified body you don't get that one until the second Resurrection you don't get that until you leave here and it dawned on me he says I can't promise you in this earth realm a glorified body but what I will promise you is I will heal the one you got and I saw it I saw it healing is a down payment of a glorified body that everything that we get when we get there the spirit has come to bring you down payments of it here and he said to me Isaac and he was talking to me he say son y'all are wasting your inheritance y'all have been getting so beat up in the earth that y'all have been crying come Lord Jesus come Lord Jesus to get us out of here when he says no there's a generation that's supposed to be manifesting my glory in this earth and some of you are going to say Lord don't come yet cuz I still got some more inheritance I need I need manifested we are wasting an age with the Holy Spirit now in the next service y'all I'm going to go into this thing when you figure out what the Holy Spirit came to bring you oh my God if it's in Jesus the spirit says I am the minister of inheritance I came to bring it to you it's time for a generation now this is the part that got me Jesus said to me he says son the same blood that purchased the full payment purchase the down payment it is the same Redemption and why won't y'all receive it my assignment today was to get you to believe God as much for the inheritance in the earth as you do in heaven thank God for heaven but until you get there there's a portion that belongs to you right now now lift your hands because because the way I'm finishing this is on purpose to just put a pen right there and then go into this further make sure you watch that sermon father we thank you Jesus Holy Spirit we're not going to waste this inheritance we receive it you say well how do I get it it's already yours but you claim it according to your faith you got to believe God you believe him for heaven don't you you got to believing for the rest of it so anybody ready to get your stuff right here right now that Jesus died for you to have so real quick real quick I mean right now claim what you need if it's healing for your body if it's Deliverance if it's peace if it's wisdom if it's Revel all of these things are yours if it's provision start claiming it right now in the name of Jesus you don't have to beg him he's already given this to you he wants you to be to the praise of his glory he wants to do it receive it right now and we'll go deeper in the next service now clap your hands and thank God for this work
