We’re joint-heirs, not Co-heirs



 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint- heirs with Christ… (Romans 8:17).
   If you’ve ever operated a joint bank account you’ll know that no money can leave the account unless both signatures are appended. The bank will not honour a cheque unless both signatories have signed since they own the account 100% together. So, the Apostle Paul wasn’t making a mistake when he peened the words, “joint-heirs” instead of “co-heir”. To be a joint-heir with Christ therefore means that everything that belongs to Jesus Christ belongs to you in the same way and to the same degree that it belongs to Him. The two of you own everything 100% together, not 50-50 or 60-40 or 70-30.
   It’s not difficult for some folks to accept that everything that belongs to the Father belongs to Jesus, but when it comes to believing that everything that belongs to Jesus belongs to us, they wonder, “Can it really be true”? When Jesus died, we died with him; when he was raised from the dead, we were raised together with Him (Ephesians 2:6). The Bible says He is the head and we are His body (Ephesians 1:22). The head can’t have a greater part in the inheritance than the body, because they’re one! This is the reason the Bible says “all things are yours…” (1 Corinthians 3:21).
   Can you see why poverty is an insult to Jesus? Can you now see why you should never go hungry another day? You’re a signatory to the heaven account, and the good news is that Jesus has already appended His own signature; it’s up to you now to do the same and begin to enjoy the inheritance. As you declare in faith that prosperity, health, success, victory and all the wonderful blessings in the gospel are yours, you’re appending your signature and you’ll find yourself walking in your inheritance.
Hallelujah!
