Remember Jesus, the heir of all things

but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things...Hebrews 1:2a

Jesus as heir is a unique thing. Usually when we think about an inheritance, one person dies and another person is given what they left behind. But since God, the giver of the inheritance, is immortal and eternal, that's not what we're looking at here.

Rather, the Bible speaks of the establishment of God's kingdom, where those who love God and are called according to His purpose will be able to enjoy Him forever. When Jesus returns to make all of the sad things come untrue, He will be the ruler of the new heavens and the new earth.

But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are too little to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose coming forth is from of Old, from ancient of days. Micah 5:2 

Micah was only one of many messengers with the same end game: Messiah is coming! Messiah will reign! Further, Hebrews 12:28 assures us that the kingdom Jesus inherits cannot be shaken. And Revelation tells us just what this kingdom will be like -

He will wipe away every tear from their eyes and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away. Revelation 21:4). 

This is the kingdom Jesus inheirts. And remember what I said a few days ago about "sons" in the Bible being a legal term? Since we are sons of God, we are also heirs, and we too will inherit the kingdom over which Jesus will reign -

The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs - heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we might also be glorified with him. Romans 8:16-17 

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled and unfading, kept in heaven for you 1 Peter 1:3-4

Jesus will inherit the kingdom of God, and we will share in His inheritance, by His blood and His grace.
