“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive a spirit of slavery again to fear, but you received a Spirit of adoption by which we cry, Abba! Father! The Spirit Himself witnesses with our spirit that we are children of God. And if children, also heirs; truly heirs of God, and joint-heirs of Christ, if indeed we suffer together, that we may also be glorified together.” (Rom 8:14-17)
“that He might redeem the ones under Law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. And because you are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba! Father! So that you no more are a slave, but a son, and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ.” (Gal 4:5-7)
We have a wonderful inheritance in Jesus. But how many of us really KNOW who God is to us now, through Jesus?
Father! When we look at ABBA Father, it is a very intimate knowledge of the Father so we can call HIM Dada, or Daddy. We are meant to be that close to God through Christ Jesus. What He received from His Father is also what we are given. HIS inheritance is OUR inheritance. His Father, is now our Father.
Do you approach God as one to be feared or as a Father of Love and Mercy? Yes, we should all Fear God, for that is the beginning of Wisdom. To fear God is to hate sin, and be repulsed by it. That is what causes us to repent, that healthy fear of God. But we are also JOINT HEIRS with Jesus, and as such Children or sons of God through Him.
When a child has done wrong, he is in justified fear of the punishment of his Dad. Yet he also knows that this same Dad is the one who he crawls into the lap of, for love, comfort and assurance.
That is how we should be. We are allowed now to come to the very throne room of the Almighty God, and approach Him without fear. We can now climb into the lap of ABBA Father, and be held and comforted, as only He can do. This is all made possible for us by Jesus and His shed Blood and Resurrection!
Do you take advantage of this new standing you have with the Father? If you do not, you are missing out on one of the most wonderful experiences of your earthy life! I give Praise and Glory to God alone. It is through Him and by Him that all things have been made and are being made. He is Holy, Just, Righteous, True. His Kingdom will never end and always has been! This is the same God that through Jesus Christ, I now can call ABBA Daddy. I can Worship Him and still be able to crawl into His lap for love and comfort. I can give to HIM all the Honor, Glory, and Praise, for HE IS Worthy, yet I can still also go to HIM as HIS CHILD and cry my heart out to Him in trouble, or just rest in His lap for Peace.
My prayer for you all would be that you would find your ABBA Father. That you would go to Him in the innocence of a Child of God (a son of God) and approach Him knowing His eyes are on you alone, and HE is ready to lift you up and hold you close to His heart. Listen Beloved for the heart beat of ABBA Daddy. Listen hard! Rest on HIS Shoulder, and hear HIM say to you. “All I have is yours. You are entitled to the same inheritance I gave to My Son Jesus.” Act on HIS Promises for you, for they are true, and will NEVER return to HIM void, but will accomplish all HE sets them out to do.
We love You Lord, our ABBA Daddy. We know that we are Your Children through Jesus, and we know You are there to lead and guide us in all our days. Daddy, let us hear Your heart beat! Let us know we are safe within Your Arms. We give to You alone all Glory, Honor, and Praise, for You alone are God!
