Numbers 18:20
"And the LORD spake unto Aaron, Thou shalt have no inheritance in their land, neither shalt thou have any part among them: I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel"

We understand from the Scriptures that God apportioned inheritance to the different tribes of Israel except the Levites. To the Levites He said, “I am thy part and thine inheritance among the children of Israel.” In other words, “I’m your portion! I’m everything you need!” This is wonderful! How rich can you get when the Lord is your portion?

Psalm 24:1 says,
"The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”If this is true, and it is, then it follows that the earth and everything in it belongs to you because the Lord is your portion. No wonder, the Bible says all things are yours! Now, you can understand when I say I don’t ask God for anything; all my prayers are for other people. I have nothing to ask God for, because I have Christ, and Christ is everything"

When this truth dawns on you, the struggles would be over; it’ll change your mentality and your testimonies would be different. The Psalmist knew the Lord to be his portion and so declared, Psalms 16:5 "The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot"

Then in Psalm 27:1, the psalmist testified, "… the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?". He didn’t say, "Strengthen me, oh Lord"; rather, he declared, "The Lord is the strength of my life!" You don’t ask for strength when you know the Lord is your portion; He’s your strength, and you testify accordingly.

Colossians 1:12 "Being born again, you’ve been made a partaker of the inheritance of the saints in light". You’ve been brought into a large place (Psalm 18:19); a place of wealth, health and prosperity. Get to know and enjoy all that belongs to you in Christ by studying and meditating on the word. Walking in the light of this and other truths in the word will launch you to a life of endless possibility, glory, excellence and superabundance.
