Pray the word with David Platt is a resource from Radical.net.

Your possession, not land, not anything else in this world that your inheritance is the Lord.

That's the language here. This shall be their inheritance. I am their inheritance, and there's

so much we could talk about here, but suffice to say, first Peter makes very clear that for all

and all that is in Him, supernatural peace, joy, strength, wisdom, all that flows from God is yours.

From God Himself, He is your possession. God, I praise you for this reality in my life.

I'm so overwhelmed, even as I think about this in my own life right now, that I have you,

that I belong to you, and you belong to me, that you are my God, that your strength is available

to me in my weakness, that your joy is available to me in a way that supersedes any circumstances,

sorrow or suffering in this world. God, I pray this over every single person listening right now,

that they would be encouraged deeply encouraged by the reality that in Christ, you are their possession,

that you are their God, and your strength is available to them, your joy, your peace, your hope,

your wisdom is available to them. And God, we pray for people who don't know this reality in their

known followers of Jesus, God, we pray that you would make the Nalgai a part of this priesthood,

that they would have you as their inheritance. So they would hear the good news of your love in
