I am a pastor’s kid, a preacher’s kid. When I was growing up, this was my identity around church. I was one of the (angelic, of course) pastor’s kids. My identity around the church came through this relationship.
God loves us as we saw in John 3:16 yesterday. Jesus paid the price of our sin so that we could have a relationship with God.
“12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:”
Have you accepted His salvation, received Him? If so, you are adopted into His family. Your identity is as a child of God.
“15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.”
Do you see that? As believers, we are adopted to be a child of God where we can say to the God of the universe, “Abba, Father.” Our identity is as His child.
Would you like to know more about this adoption, about this relationship with God? Please contact us here or on our Facebook page.
