No longer a slave...!

Galatians 4:6-7 NKJV

And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

† Shalom †......! Day #140. Do you know that you are sons and daughters of God, and no longer a slave? Let us pray. Father, thank You for the privilege given to us to be Your sons and daughters. Thank You for saving us from the darkness into Your marvelous light. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Friends,  such a wonderful privilege is given to you and me,  to be the sons and daughters of God. Many others are trying to do their best to be the sons and daughters of God but they don't know how to do it.  It is simple,  if only they are willing to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. A son knows the heartbeats of God. We have become joint heirs with Christ Jesus because of what He has done for us at the cross. The Spirit of His Son is living in us. 

Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ. When I said we are sons and daughters of God, so therefore :

1. God knows the best for you.
When He says No it means a BIG NO because He knows the best for you as a Father. And if you go against His commands, well you are really in a deep trouble.  He gives His very best for His children and we must give our all to Him.

2. You aren't a slave to the world any more but a child of God. You have all the freedom in God. If you have please read Luke 15, it's about the prodigal son. The son wanted freedom and wanted to live his life according to his ways and he went out of his father's house and begin to wander and finally became a slave and then he returned back to his father and the father received him with gladness because his son has returned. Do not abuse the freedom God has given to us. You're no longer a slave to the world, therefore put to death all the earthly desires that's leading to death.

3. Knows the heartbeat of God.
A son or a daughter knows the heartbeat of their parents. And they will do their best to please their parents and not to bring shame to them. Jesus knew the heartbeat of the Father and He pleased God by doing His will because He is a Son to His Father. A slave will do, yes, but he or she will do it because they are bound to their master, they have no other choice. Whereas we, the sons and daughters of God, God gives us the freedom to choose either to follow His ways or we choose to be like the prodigal son. A slave is forced to do things according to his or her master's wish.

Amen. Hallelujah 🙌.  Let us be a true sons and daughters to God. Do our responsibility as a son and daughter to God the Father. God bless you!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
