Faith and Fellowship: I Am A Child Of God
I am a child of God! My Heavenly Father knows me. Psalm 82:6, God’s children are born of him, we are born in a spiritual sense. You are a child of God if you believe, A belief that causes you to surrender your life to Jesus. A belief that keeps on believing and keeps on surrendering to the Lord. Being a child of God gives us the saving Grace of our father in Heaven.
The Apostle John states, “see how much the Father loves us, we are called children of God.” John 2:1. As being a child of God we are both born and adopted, Yes this is the love of our Heavenly Father. All human beings are created by God in his image, and he loved us so much he sent Jesus to die for us. That is real love. God chose us, before we knew anything about him. He sent his son for us!
As children of God, we are disciplined. God loves those he corrects and teaches. Hebrew 12:6, Our God is a good father and a perfect teacher. Our God loves us so much and he has not left anything out, his mercy, his compassion, and his abundance has all been given to us by our Heavenly Father, We are called God’s creation. What a good feeling in knowing that we are children of God and because we are his children. The spirit will stand against every accuser and proclaim with loudness, “ This is my child.”
The word of God teaches us, John 3:10, By this it is evident, who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil, whosoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. I am thankful that I am A child of God.
We are God’s children and the scriptures teaches us. “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old, he will not depart it” “Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him”. “I have no greater joy, then to hear that my children are walking in the truth”.
Our identity as a child of God, teaches us that we should fully trust the plan that God has for our lives. Have you ever asked the question. Who am I? The answer of all God children showed be. I am a child of God, I am one of Jesus’s sheep, Jesus freely gave up his life for me. God does not force us to accept him. However, God’s love for us is beyond all human understanding. He approaches us with outstretched arms, showering us with all his love.
God really loves us so much, Thank You God for the Holy Spirit, that is our guide for life. The Holy Spirit guides us through all truths and helps us to understand the word of God. What a privilege it is to be a child of God.
As we meditate on the word of God this week, let us remember to place our faith in Jesus Christ. The one who died for our sins. Thank You for accepting us to be Children of God. Thank You for giving us eternal life.
May God so richly bless!!!
