MY
PORTION
The Psalmist said in Psalm 24 vs. 1: The earth is the LORD’s and
his fullness thereof, the world and those that dwell therein. GOD created
the heaven and the earth. He owns the universe. He controls all things in the
universe. Genesis 1 vs. 26: And GOD
said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have
dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the
cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth
upon the earth. GOD made man to be fruitful and multiply and replenish the
earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over all living thing upon the earth. Genesis 1 vs. 28: And GOD blessed them, and
GOD said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply and replenish the earth and
subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the
air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Portion is one’s
lot. It is an inheritance. It is that which a person is entitled to inherit.
Many are ignorant of the fact, they are to possess the earth, rule and
dominate. As a child of GOD, anywhere the sole of your feet steps, you are to
possess it. The Israelites possessed land which their feet stepped, because GOD
was with them; and because He promised their father’s Abraham, Isaac and Israel.
Deuteronomy 32 vs.9 (AMP): For the LORD’s
portion is his people; Jacob (Israel) is the lot of his inheritance. Vs 10 (AMP):
He found him in a desert land, in the howling void of the wilderness; He kept
circling around him, He scanned him, He kept him as the pupil of His eye. Vs.
11(AMP): As an eagle that stir up her nest, that flutters over her young, He
spread abroad His wings and He took them, He bore them on His pinions. Vs.12 (AMP):
So the LORD alone led him, there was no foreign god with him. Vs. 13 (AMP): He
made Israel ride on the high places of the earth, and he ate the increase of
the field; and He made him suck honey out of the rock and oil out of the flinty
rock.
Israel
enjoyed all these, because he made GOD is portion. He had no foreign gods. He
had no idol. GOD was his portion. When you make GOD your portion, you possess
all. GOD owns the universe; He remains the same and changes not. There are inheritances
set aside for only those that make GOD their portion. Psalm 16 vs. 5: The LORD is the portion of
mine inheritance and of my cup; thou maintains my lot. David made GOD is
portion. He choose GOD and GOD held him and maintained his lot for him. No
wonder he said in Vs.6: The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places, yea, I
have a goodly heritage. When you make GOD your portion, the lines fall unto you
in pleasant place. Things will go smoothly for you. What is your portion? What
have you chosen over GOD? Its time you re-think and make GOD your portion. Your
flesh and desires will fail; why not make the LORD your portion. Psalm 73 vs.
26: My flesh and my heart fails; but GOD is the strength of my heart, and my
portion forever. As for me, GOD is my portion forevermore. What about you? It
is well with us……
