Tonight I attended the cell group (small weekly-meeting group) that meets at the house I live in. It is composed of all married people who either have children or have one on the way. I was literally the only single person there. Some of you might be thinking "what was she doing there?" And sometimes I have asked myself the same question. However, I believe that the Lord has me there for a reason, and is teaching me things about marriage and parenthood that these people had to wait years for. The main topic of what we are discussing is "spiritual inheritance." That is, believing and contending for the spiritual blessings that we are promised in the Word for ourselves and our children. I count this a major blessing that I get to hear about this now, because I can begin to believe these things and intercede for my children NOW. I don't have to wait until I am married and am pregnant before I start confessing with my mouth the promises of God for my offspring. I can start "depositing" heavenly equity into their spiritual accounts NOW. Praise God! Also, I get to hear what the moms are dealing with on a day-to-day basis (and praise God that I'm not dealing with it right now), and I know that that will help me to know what to expect in the future.

For more information about the teaching on spiritual inheritances go to Houston Revival Center and look in the resource section for a teaching called "Spiritual Constitutions." I highly recommend it... it has messed me up all week.
