What does it mean that God has given us a possession in Him?
Answered in 1 source
God's people are granted the best possession in Him, which includes His love, grace, and access to eternal life through Christ.
God has bestowed upon His children a profound possession—eternal life and a relationship with Him. This possession is marked by grace and encompasses all the blessings that come from being united with Christ. Just as Joseph's family was granted a fertile land in Egypt, believers are offered the richness of God's grace, comfort, and understanding. This guarantees that all things will work together for their good. When we embrace this idea, we realize that we lack nothing essential because everything necessary for life and godliness is found in Christ, who is the source of all our spiritual blessings.
