Property Speculation or What ?

What do I mean by 'Possessing the Land', am I talking about property speculation, farming or what? To begin with we need to define 'the Land'.

By "the Land" I'm not talking about a physical place but I am talking about the Kingdom of God in all it's fullness and wonder, I'm talking about being who God always planned us to be, fulfilling the calling He always planned for us.

God had a plan for the Israelites when Moses led the out of Egypt, Exodus 3:8 says

"So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey ..."

and for them it was a physical land. For us as children of God through the work of Jesus on the cross there is a spiritual land, I don't mean 'pie in the sky when you die', yes that is always there and Jesus promised to prepare a place for us. For the follower of Jesus there is so much more, there is 'steak on the plate while you wait', there is a whole Kingdom to explore, a whole lifetime of adventure and wonder for the believer "I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly" - John 10v10

The land is this abundant life on God available to ALL those who have accepted the message of Jesus death and resurrection.

Amen
