Are you a Child of God by faith in Jesus?
For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
Galatians 3:26-29 KJV
THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Want something really basic, simple, and easy to understand. When we became Christians through our faith (our belief in Jesus Christ and Him crucified for us) and baptism into Christ, we were made one with all other Christians around the world. Race, gender, nationality, and social status are gone. All that’s left is one, The One, Jesus Christ and His body of believers. Our lives are His and thus are connected to each other now through His Spirit. Our destination is the same, heaven. Our family is the church (not a building but the gathering together of His children), the bride of Christ. No barriers. No closed doors. No Denominations. We are one in Christ. Oh, one other thing. If you could trace your family roots far enough you would find that everyone came from Adam and Eve somehow anyway! We are all family.
MY PRAYER…
Abba Father, thank You for adopting me into Your family. May we be one on earth now, as we will be when we are all together around Your throne in heaven. I pray for unity among all those who call upon the Name of Jesus and share Your Spirit so the world may know there is a solution to conflict, strife and division at least within the church (the Body of Christ). In the name of Jesus, the Christ, our Lord, Savior, and Righteousness I pray.
Amen
