Family

Who is your mother? father? Who are your siblings? What people do you consider family that are not related to you by blood? What makes them close to you? Would you consider yourself a part of God's family?

Answer these questions:

1. Do you look like your Father?
2. Do you carry your family name?
3. What things differentiate your family from others?

So by now, I think you know where I am going with this. If you claim to be a part of the family of God, there should be some proof. Does the very DNA of God run through your spiritual veins? We should have some similarity to the family that we are a part of. The children of the devil act like him - they are evil, self-centered and oppose the things of God. Children of God have the attributes of their father as well. Could your family, friends, co-workers and neighbors identify

1Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. 2Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth 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. 3And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. I John 3:1-3

Prayer: Lord, I have a natural family and I pray that all of us will become a part of your family. I pray for my unsaved family members. Make us look like You in Jesus name I pray, Amen!

Action: If you are a part of God's family, read through the mirror of the Word and see how much you look like your Father. Try I John 3:10, Acts 13:10, Galatians 3:26. If you are not a part of God's family read John 1:12-13 and receive God as your Father today.
