One question comes to mind, how do you know you are qualified for God's job? Is it by your certificates, degrees, experiences and skills? Emphatically No! All this cannot be done by your abilities. The Bible says "Not be power nor by might but by His Spirit".
To be qualified in God's kingdom, you didn't have to do anything because He has already done it all for you (He died for you, took your sins, abused, beaten, was buried, rose up from the dead, ascended & He is alive, sent the Holy Spirit to us, taught us what to do, how to do and why we have to do). All we needed to do was to accept His qualification for us. You don't have to keep applying to be qualified.
Remember the story of Joseph? His brothers hated him because his father loved him most and he had dreams (Genesis 37:8). Eventually, his brothers sold him and they gave their father a false report about Joseph. Remember that at the point when he was sold it didn’t seem like things were going to be in his favor. He could have given up on his dreams and God's promises but instead he held on and remained faithful. We all know how the story ended.
When you realize all our Lord Jesus Christ went through to qualify you as a sharer in the inheritance, you will forever give thanks and be joyful always. No matter what comes your way, you know deep within you that you are qualified, endorsed, confirmed and approved of your inheritance in the kingdom of light.
Further Scripture Study: 1 Samuel 16:7; Zechariah 4:6
Declare This: Heavenly Father I appreciate You, You love me so much and You qualified me a bona-fide citizen and partaker of the inheritance in Your kingdom in Jesus name Amen.
