Day 36 "You Are A Child of God"
Abba’s Child
Happy Lord’s Day Beauties!
We have examined the seven attributes of who we are in Christ: Beautiful, Lovely, Joyful, Royalty, Righteous, Redeemed, and Purity. Today we reach the crest in our journey...we are Children of God. No better title, not better position than to be The Father's Child.
Today, being Father’s Day, it’s easy to have our focus on our Dads. For some, this day is a day for great celebration, and for others, it’s a difficult day. I pray we turn our eyes to Father God today and allow our hearts to honor him.
Let’s take a look at our awesome God in regards to our place as His Child. First, we must understand that our Abba Father (Daddy) is not our Earthly father. It is natural for our view of God to take on the attributes of the father we grew up with, but it's not the case. If you look at each individual's father, you'll find they run the full spectrum from being absent or abusive to being the loving and kind father a girl admires. As good as an Earthly father is, he is still flawed, he's human. Abba Father is Perfect. He is loving, protective, supportive, and so much more. You will never be disappointed as you learn to Trust Him.
What lies of the enemy are holding you back from fully believing and receiving the goodness and love of The Father? Are you willing to allow Jesus to silence those lies, that perhaps the enemy used through your Dad? Listen to your loving and adoring Abba Father today. What does He want to reveal to you? Selah.

“Even in his own land and among his own people, the Jews, he was not accepted. Only a few would welcome and receive him. But to all who received him, he gave the right to become children of God. All they needed to do was to trust him to save them.”
