Ezekiel 44:28 And it shall be to them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance: and you shall give them no possession in Israel… We possess God as the flower the sunlight; as a babe the mother. All His resources are placed at our disposal. The seed cast into the ground immediately begins to take from earth and air the nutriment of its life, and we have the same power of deriving from the infinite fulness of God all that shall make us pure and strong and gentle. Ours are the unsearchable riches of Christ; we are made full through the fulness which God the Father has been pleased to make dwell in Him. All the resources which have been placed at His disposal in His ascension and eternal reign are gifts which He holds for men. Alas for us that we fail to possess our possessions! (F. B. Meyer, B. A.) Parallel Verses KJV: And it shall be unto them for an inheritance: I am their inheritance: and ye shall give them no possession in Israel: I am their possession. |
