ISAIAH 57:11 (MSG)
“Who talked you into the pursuit of this nonsense,
leaving me high and dry,
forgetting you ever knew me?
Because I don’t yell and make a scene,
do you think I don’t exist?
ROMANS 8:15 (NLT)
So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.”
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Live as an adopted child of God.
DAILY FODDER
What difference does having God as your father make in your daily life?
PRAYER
Our Father, thank you for including me in your family. I didn't even have to do anything to impress you or gain your attention. Help me to live as an adopted child. I'm going to allow you to build me a new identity around the family name. Amen
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil. Amen!
