The Heir, as long as he is a Child, differs nothing from a Servant, though he be Lord of all. (Gal. 4:1)

Redemption has recreated us, Transformed us and translated us! We are a New Creation seated with Him in Heavenly places. We are Heirs of God and joint Heirs with Christ! We are Heirs of the Kingdom, Heirs of Salvation, Heirs according to the Promise and Heirs of the Grace of life!

Even the most recent Believer is an Heir. However, it is possible to be an Heir and not have a clue about being Child of the King of Kings. We must Grow in the Grace of God and learn how to Live in the Kingdom. “As newborn babes, Desire the sincere milk of the Word that You may Grow thereby.” (1Pet. 2:2)

Telling a babe that he is an Heir doesn’t have much meaning. A newborn prince Will one day be King, but Right now he is a baby Just like every other baby in the Kingdom. His Future is settled but his present is ordinary. He Needs to Grow. He Needs to learn and be educated in the workings of his kingdom.

So it is in the Kingdom of God. While the Gospel has given us Authority over the Works of the Enemy, very few ever Grow into an Understanding of what that means. Some remain babes their entire lives. The incredible potential of their New Identity is Never discovered or released into the world. They differ nothing from a servant.

Till we all come in the Unity of the Faith, and of the Knowledge of the Son of God, unto a Perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more Children, (Eph. 4:13-14)
