S - Now you are no longer a slave but God's own child. And since you are God's own child, God has made you his heir.
O - I'm sure the Galatians were very familiar with slaves and heirs. I'm not very familiar with slaves but in the last few years I've seen what it means to people to be earthly heirs. I've watched families be torn apart by inheritance and I've watched families grow closer together because of their inheritance. How exciting it is to know that our inheritance in Christ is the same for everyone! No believer has to be worried about being left out or cheated out of what is theirs!
A - When people are watching me they need to see what being an heir of God really means so they will want the same inheritance.
P - Lord thank you that I don't have to fight for freedom and an inheritance in you. Thank you that you provided Jesus to make it possible. Help me in my words and actions today to represent your inheritance and freedom from slavery in sin!
