Inspirational Nugget: Zhan Haite 15years; Changed China
Zhan, an ambitious 15-year-old middle-school student in Shanghai, became an unlikely crusader against the country’s draconian residence registration system, the hukou, a bureaucratic knot tying hundreds of millions of migrant workers to their rural hometowns.
Yet Zhan’s message was well-timed – hukou reform had recently risen to the top of the national agenda – and state-run media outlets began to take notice. Zhan was allowed to pen an op-ed in the China Daily newspaper, which ran under the headline Teen Girl Makes Case for Change. She said. “A free and democratic country cannot be made up of slaves.”

The Spirit of the Lord; Rejoice in your Inheritance
Isaiah 61:7 New International Version – Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance. And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours.
An inheritance is simply something one should or have possessed as a result of the death of someone or the owner. Thus, we have an inheritance in Christ Jesus because it was based on His death that we have entry into the kingdom of God with all that pertains to life and Godliness(2 Peter 1:3).
This inheritance we have in Christ Jesus should make us have joy continuously, so anytime, you seem to be devoid of joy, it means someone or something is robbing you off your inheritance in Christ Jesus; this inheritance never came as a result of how righteous we are, but it is a gift we have from the Father God, in the Name of Jesus and with the help of the Precious Holy Spirit.
Confession
In the Name of Jesus, I rejoice in my inheritance, amen!
