Obadiah 1:17

"Come on!" This command indicates that there is something definite for us to do and that nothing is ours unless we take it. "The children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance" (Joshua 16:4 KJV). The house of "Jacob will possess inheritance" (Obadiah 17). "The upright shall have good things in possession" (Proverbs 28:10 KJV).

We need to have appropriating faith when it comes to God’s promises and should make His Word our own personal possession. A child was once asked what appropriating faith was, and he answered, "It is taking a pencil and underlining every ‘me,’ ‘my,’ and ‘mine’ in the Bible."
