“He who overcomes will inherit all things, and I will be his God and he will be My son!” Revelation 21:7
“Inherit all things!” This is an astonishing aspect of Heaven. How vast, how unfathomable–is the inheritance of the saints! It is a lovely picture, on which the eye of faith delights to dwell.
Therefore The earthly heir looks at his inheritance. He surveys it, walks through it, luxuriates amidst its beauties, and anticipates its full possession.
In the same way, the heir of glory has his inheritance also–it is Heaven in all it’s splendor! Because he looks to it, and he longs for it. Soon his Savior will come in glory, and usher him into its full and eternal possession!
“We have a priceless inheritance–an inheritance that is reserved in Heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay!” 1 Peter 1:4
“Then the King will say to those on His right: Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world!” Matthew 25:34

Something to ponder:
J.R. Miller: A Christian is not called to an easy, comfortable, self-indulgent life–but to self-denial, sacrifice, and cross-bearing.
“Then Jesus said to his disciples: If anyone would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me!” Matthew 16:24
