Today's Devotion-Children of God by the Spirit

Rom 8:155 For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, "Abba, Father."NIV

God revealed Himself as a Father not because He needs more children, but rather it is us; humanity that needs a Father. The word of God implies that there is only one begotten Son of God; Christ Jesus, who became man so that man can become the sons of God! In this truth, let us come in humility to Him as he open His arm to all of us, not to make us slaves or to forced us to do some laws to our dismay. But as children to whom the Father is giving all that He has even the privilege to have an eternal fellowship with Him as we follow His precepts!

The Holy Spirit testifies that we are the children of God as He dwells in us. Teaching and guiding us to please our Father, who did and does everything for our good! We have an open access to our Heavenly Fathers throne because of the redemptive work of Christ on the cross. No matter what we have done and will do, His grace is always sufficient for all of us. We can always call and approached Him calling Him "Abba" which means Father in our present language. It's gives us the assurance of acceptance, provision and protection.

For our ever present God is a Father heart God! Lets always come to His loving arm and enjoy rest in His loving presence. He have accepted us by His Son and sealed that acceptance by giving us the Holy Spirit making us children of God in whom we would share all the blessings of Chrsit the begotten Son of God! Some might say you're not a child anymore because of your sin, but it's not true for no matter what you have done His Father heart will not reject you! It won't change anything, but a true child always come humbly to the Father to find refuge, forgiveness and even acceptance avery time we fall! No one can separate us from the love of God in Christ! Rom 8:35-39. That's why His Spirit dwells in us!

Enjoy your day and rest assured your Father in Heaven watches over you!!!

Till next time!
