You are a child of God

Romans 4:13-14

Clearly, God's promise to give the whole earth to Abraham and his descendants was based not on his obedience to God's law, but on a right relationship with God that comes by faith.

NLT

FURTHER STUDY: EPHESIANS 2:12-13, JOHN 1:12(click to read)

God almighty who is your father is more interested in having a right relationship with you than for you to conform to certain rules and regulations which are encapsulated in religion.

Jesus Christ came to this world to die on the cross for us so that we would have a relationship with God first as children, not as slaves. For as many as received him, God gave them power to become sons of God. God wants you to know that as long as you have received Jesus Christ as your lord and savior, He is your father. You have to respond to Him that way in order to complete the process.

If a homeless child who is adopted by a wealthy man never accepts him as father; or even agrees to move into his house, that child will continue to remain homeless even though he now has a father.

It is your choice whether you will walk in the position and authority you have as a son of God. God has given you the power to become a son, whether or not you use this power is your choice.

If you make a mistake don’t waste any time by dwelling there, run back to your Father who is always on your side; tell him the details of the mistake and repent of it. Do not let satan make you dwell in that guilt because dwelling in guilt does not produce any good fruit.

Remember that God cares for you and loves you with an everlasting love. God does not want you to be unhappy, God wants the best for you at all times. When you walk with God you will discover that God’s ways will eventually produce better results than you ever hoped for or imagined.

Prayer: Heavenly father, thank you for your word. I pray that your word will bear everlasting fruits in my life, and that your name will be glorified in my life today and every day. In Jesus Name, Amen.
