WHEN THE HEIR IS A CHILD

"Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all, but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father."     Galatians 4.1-2
Who in their right mind would give a child a motorcycle, if he can't even ride a tricycle yet? Spiritually speaking, many children insist with God the Father to take possession of things that can only be given to adults.
It is a fact that when an heir is still a minor, he must wait for the right time, which is determined by the Father, to take possession of everything.
In the meantime, he must remain patient.
The Holy Spirit gives patience.

  1. Mrs. Esther, when I was reading your post of today, it came to me that we only reach "adulthood" in our faith when indeed we meet God. Until then we act like children, in respective of age, because we are only led by the desires of flesh. So God cannot pour on His greatness because many continue as spiritual children, given to their own will.
