Day 1: God’s Grace Gives Us a Spiritual Inheritance
The story of the daughters of Zelophehad in Numbers 27 shows that God’s heart is for justice and inclusion, granting an inheritance even to those overlooked by society. In the same way, every believer is given a spiritual inheritance through Christ—salvation, favor, and eternal life—regardless of their past or present circumstances. This inheritance is not earned by works but received by faith, and it changes how we live, giving us hope and confidence no matter what we face. If you truly grasp that you are an heir of God, it will transform your perspective on every challenge and blessing in your life.
Numbers 27:1-8 (ESV)
Then drew near the daughters of Zelophehad the son of Hepher, son of Gilead, son of Machir, son of Manasseh, from the clans of Manasseh, the son of Joseph. The names of his daughters were: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. And they stood before Moses and before Eleazar the priest and before the chiefs and all the congregation, at the entrance of the tent of meeting, saying, “Our father died in the wilderness. He was not among the company of those who gathered themselves together against the Lord in the company of Korah, but died for his own sin. And he had no sons. Why should the name of our father be taken away from his clan because he had no son? Give to us a possession among our father's brothers.” Moses brought their case before the Lord. And the Lord said to Moses, “The daughters of Zelophehad are right. You shall give them possession of an inheritance among their father's brothers and transfer the inheritance of their father to them. And you shall speak to the people of Israel, saying, ‘If a man dies and has no son, then you shall transfer his inheritance to his daughter.’”
Reflection: If you truly believed you have a spiritual inheritance from God, how would it change the way you approach your daily struggles and decisions today?
Day 2: Salvation Is a Gift, Not Earned by Works
Salvation is not something we can earn through our own efforts, rituals, or good deeds; it is a gift of grace received by faith in Jesus Christ. No matter how broken your past or how many times you’ve fallen short, God’s forgiveness is available to you when you trust in Christ. This truth frees you from striving to earn God’s approval and invites you to live in the joy and security of being fully accepted and loved by Him. Let your worship and service flow from gratitude for what He has already done, not from fear or obligation.
Ephesians 2:8-9 (ESV)
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Reflection: In what area of your life are you still trying to earn God’s approval instead of receiving His grace? What would it look like to rest in His finished work today?
Day 3: God’s Favor and Delight Rest on You
God’s favor is not reserved for a select few; He delights in every one of His children and calls each of us His “favorite.” No matter your background, failures, or what others have said about you, God’s love and delight are unwavering. He sings over you, rejoices in you, and desires to bless you with His presence and goodness. When you understand that you are deeply loved and favored by God, it gives you confidence to live boldly and serve Him with joy, knowing that nothing can separate you from His love.
Colossians 3:23-24 (ESV)
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
Reflection: What is one way you can remind yourself today that you are God’s beloved and favored child, especially when you feel overlooked or unworthy?
Day 4: Suffering Is Not Wasted—God Is Near to the Brokenhearted
Seasons of suffering, loss, or rejection can feel overwhelming, but God promises to be near to the brokenhearted and to save those who are crushed in spirit. In the secret place of suffering, you can experience God’s presence and comfort in ways you never have before. Rather than pulling away from God in pain, lean in and allow Him to meet you, heal you, and use your suffering for a greater purpose. Your pain is not purposeless; God is working in and through it to shape you and draw you closer to Himself.
Psalm 34:18 (ESV)
The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.
Reflection: When you face pain or disappointment, what would it look like for you to lean into God’s presence instead of withdrawing or becoming bitter?
Day 5: Forgiveness and Humility Unlock Your Inheritance
Unforgiveness, bitterness, and unconfessed sin can keep you from fully embracing the spiritual inheritance God has for you. God calls you to release those who have hurt you, to forgive as you have been forgiven, and to humbly own your own shortcomings. Bringing your struggles into the light breaks the enemy’s power and opens the way for healing, freedom, and blessing. Be brave—ask God for the strength to forgive, to confess, and to pray big prayers, trusting that He is a God of justice and restoration who desires to bless you beyond what you can imagine.
1 John 1:9 (ESV)
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Reflection: Who is one person you need to forgive or one area you need to bring into the light before God or a trusted friend today, so you can walk in greater freedom and receive all God has for you?
