"Giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light." Colossians 1:12 ASV
What a marvelous statement. This verse is rich with encouraging information for the believer in Christ. Reading our text scripture, it didn't say you are going to be a partaker, no! It says you are already a partaker. God wants you to know that you are already a "Part" and a "Taker" of the inheritance. Other translations of the Bible puts it that you are a participator, a sharer, a partner and a party to the inheritance. You are a member in the house and not a stranger or visitor in our kingdom.
Don't look at yourself as a nobody, no! no!! you are a son and daughter in the house. A joint heir with Him and a child of the Most High God. In Philippians 1:7 KJV, Paul says ...we are all partakers of my grace. Note it didn't say partakers of disgrace, animosity, hatred or bitterness, but of the Grace of God resident in him. This means you carry a special grace in you that gives you the ability to win your world for Jesus at all times.
This grace connects you with the exceeding great and precious promises of the kingdom and makes you a partaker of the divine nature of God; not partakers of the distractions of the world (2 Peter 1:4) KJV.

Declare This: Dear Father, I sincerely thank You for showing and giving me all that pertains to me. I am a partaker now and always in Jesus name Amen.
