...Dedicate your life to this—the education of God’s children in their right as My sons, daughters, and heirs. They must know this so that they will not feel left alone in the last days of this time. The time of times, as I have previously said. Now do you see? It is for this reason that you have made ready the way of your Lord God and Father in these precipitous times. Shalom."
(bromar4) These are the words of God our Father to Barbara Centilli. He said "right as sons and daughters and heirs". He did not say privilege or gift or any word that can be understood as meaning earned, but right. Why? What does He mean? He means that it is inherent just because He created us. He is also saying that nothing can change this relationship. We were made that we might be His children and that His children have all the rights that go with this relationship and they can not be revoked, not by us and not by Him, and no lawyer can rewrite His will that makes us His heirs.
What are we heirs to? To understand that we have to understand Who He is. He is Love; Love that gives life, love that changes and makes better, that creates, that gives and gives generously, that forgives everything, everything! He is love that corrects, encourages, inspires, that helps us in all the ways we can’t help ourselves, that teaches, patiently. He is love that knows everything, understands everything, Who is present always and in all ways. He is love that delights in dwelling within us, experiencing everything through the intimacy of dwelling in us. He is love that provides for all our needs, and who accounting for every possibility, arranges things according to every circumstance to give us all the good He desires for us. He is love that gives without taking away, giving us the freedom we need to learn. We are heirs to all that He is and does for us as our King, our Sovereign. We are heirs to His Kingdom, which is a Kingdom of good, of holiness, of love.

But what about those who have rejected Him, or simply forgotten Him after knowing Him intimately, or those who have simply chosen other gods before Him feeling the need to be accepted by the world and therefore choosing the earthly kingdom over the Kingdom of God because it makes them feel safe in the environment of the world whereas to live for the Kingdom of God causes them to be rejected by the world. Our Father calls them prodigal children and He loves them in a special way because He also has pity for them since they are confused and have been deceived by the world and the devil. The Kingdom is their right also even if for now they have forsaken it. He will be as the Father in the parable of the prodigal child. He will wait for Him to come to his senses, as long as it takes. He will take advantage of every opportunity and circumstance to show him his error and convert him, reminding him of the good he can still have if he would only have the courage to come home to his Father’s heart. And He will have a feast for him when he comes home and eagerly run to greet him and restore him to his rightful place as a son, not as a servant or slave because slavery is what sin does to us not God, not our Father. Too often shame makes us hesitant to just go to Him, we feel bad for what we have done and undeserving of His love and generosity. And yet it is precisely His love and generosity that cures our ails the fastest; it is His mercy. Why? Because love is the cure as well as the reward, and He is The Love. He is not only the End for which we strive, He is the Means to that End and without which we can never attain to our End, our coming home to our Father’s most paternal heart.
Yes we have the right to Our Father, to his love, to His mercy, to all that He wants to give us as His children. And we have this right for no other reason than that is how He wants it, how He made it to be. And making it so, He set it as a law of nature; it is engrained on out hearts and minds to be this way. Just like every child believes he has the right to his parents love, time energy and money(you were once like this even if you aren’t now), and it is right that we believe we have the right to all our Father is and has and does. He made it this way, He wants it this way, and He is yearning for all His children to live this way, to live in the eternal home of His most paternal heart, where we can have peace, joy, and the consolation that is His loving embrace.
