"OUR" Father

“OUR” Father

“GOD SENT FORTH His Son. . . to redeem them that were under the law, that WE might receive the ADOPTION OF SONS.”

“Who were foreordained unto the ADOPTION AS SONS by Christ Jesus unto Himself.” (Eph>1:5)

“Behold what manner of love the Father has given unto US, The WE should be called the SONS OF GOD; therefore the world knows US not, because it knew Him not. Beloved, NOW ARE WE THE SONS OF GOD, and it does not yet appear what WE shall BE: but we know that when He shall appear, WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM; for WE shall see Him as He is.” (context of I Jn.3:12) (Do you know the tune to this song?)

“Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners, but (equal) FELLOW CITIZENS WITH THE SAINTS, AND OF THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD.” (OUR) (Eph. 1:5)

INTAMACY – (ABBA)
“Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you.” (cuddle or snuggle up close) (James 4:8)

John 3 – New Birth – Born Again,

It is His life, He is the Father and creator of it. We do not create a god, HE GOD, creates US in His Image. We are His idea!
My sons are my sons naturally. When the received the Spirit of God, through trusting Jesus as their own personal Savior, confessing and turning from their sin, accepting what Jesus has done for them, paying for the penalty for their sin instead of having to themselves. God’s plan of a new creature, born from above, gives my natural sons eternal life; God’s life. It is the same as His only Son’s life of resurrection bestowed on US through regenerating faith, (becoming someone I was never before) trusting Christ, makes US CHRIST-IAN, God is “OUR” Father!

BORN – Naturally is our birth.
RE-BORN – Supernaturally is HIS.
We are a Spiritual “BE”ing, not a being of spirits. (trying to be spiritual)
“I must be about my Fathers House” (R.V.) “Business” (K.J.)
“You are a Spiritual house, not made with hands, eternal in the Heavens.”
“My house shall be called a house of prayer.” “For all Nations.”

God so Loved the world. . . “Lord the one you love is. . .” (Lazarus is sick)
“We love Him because He first loved us.” “Herein is love; not that we love Him. But that He loves US.”

O Holy Father, in the name of Jesus, Our Lord, please come and rule and reign over all the earth. Take control of those nasty nations doing things against your will. Be in control of our country, those doing evil in high places that attack your people. O God, remove them from office, from the hurt and accusations they make against your children in the name of their position in government. This next election year, help us to choose those who will seek you will first before their own elite ideas put us in harms way. Yes, deliver us from the evil one; Those with a devilish agenda.

Dear Lord, help us here at home, in our neighborhood, we need you more than political, but in our schools, our offices, on our streets we need your will throughout our State in the lives of your people, our neighbors and friends. The opposition to you and your Word seems to be growing, there seems to be less knowledge of your will, less mow than ever. Right here in our home, in our family we need you in control of what we do and say and to be pleasing Lord to you. Thank you for forgiving us when we have been able to admit our need. Please continue the cleansing process and your Holy presence in our lives.

Lord, what we ask for others, we ask for our self. We are more in need than they. We are the ones who need your rule and reign, your will be done. We are the unholy ones that seek your righteousness, your deliverance. Come Holy Spirit, we need you.
“I believe, help my unbelief.”
