Steve begins by expressing gratitude for the opening verse, which reminds us to remember the Lord, but he shifts focus to our relationship with Him, emphasizing that God is on the throne and invites us to sit with Him someday. Steve shares how his burden arose after a conference, inspired by Lucio's emphasis on God's Word, leading him to meditate on Psalm 37. The recurring phrase "inherit the land" signifies inheriting Christ through grace, which is essential for spiritual progress. He highlights the biblical concept of being companions or partners with God, emphasizing our shared participation in His work. The outline of his message includes examining Psalm 37, examples from Israel's history, and the process of becoming heirs of Christ in the New Testament. Steve discusses the inheritance as both a reward and a position of reigning with Christ, referencing Romans 8 and Colossians 3, emphasizing that believers are made heirs through new birth. He explores the meaning of entering and inheriting the land, relating it to dispossessing worldly influences, flesh, and enemy schemes, learned in the wilderness. He underscores dependence on God, separation from the world, and trust during trials. In the New Testament, he examines passages about entering and inheriting the kingdom, noting the distinction between initial salvation (gift) and reward (inheritance). He emphasizes that while all believers are brought into God's kingdom, only those who overcome and meet certain conditions will reign with Christ, inheriting kingship and glory. Steve concludes with a heartfelt call for believers to desire and pursue overcoming, so they may fully enter into the kingship and sit with Christ on His throne, reflecting God's ultimate purpose for His children.
