1 Corinthians 2

Daily Devotional from 1 Corinthians 2--

Verse 12

Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.

Eva Paole was a housemaid working in Argentina when she discovered that her birth father was a well-off landowner that had died years before. By law she was entitled to his estate and took her claim to court. After a lengthy battle and the exhumation of her grandmother’s remains to prove Paole’s DNA connection to the family, she eventually inherited $40 million, and, as you can imagine, retired from being a maid.

Like Eva you too have a well-to-do landowning Father, named God. And because of your connection to Jesus, you share his DNA. No more are you to pass your time in a maid-like existence. You have a rich inheritance. And serving as executor of the will is the Holy Spirit himself. Listen to him today and always. He wants you to understand the full extent of your new position in Him.
