Those who tell the Good News are united with our Heavenly Father through His Son and Word, Jesus Christ, who has been graciously sent as a revelation of His Love, for the redemption of mankind (1 John 4:14-16). Personal faith in God's only begotten, Jesus as the Messiah of our souls, pleases the Father; yet our willingness to receive Him in Love and suffer with Him for a short time, being re-born of the Spirit to live for Him, repurposes us as ambassadors of Christ and dear Children of God, adopted to share in His glory (John 16:22, Rom. 8:16-17, Heb. 11:6, 1 John 5:1).
Although, this keeps Christians separated from the lusts of the world and the deception of the devil, having been sent by the LORD to proclaim His Word with power lovingly to all, those who seek earthly pleasures to satisfy their greed and pride, end up rejecting the Source of good things and us, for the one who comes only to steal, kill, and destroy, aligning themselves with the Accuser (James 1:17-18, John 5:42-43 & 10:10).
PRAYER: Thank You Heavenly Father, for accepting me, as I am willing to receive Your Word lovingly into my heart, which keeps me forever redeemed - living as a co-heir with Jesus Christ, Your Son, in whom my faith rests. Please send me to Your lost Children and surround me with family in Christ, so that I might have more opportunities to show them love and receive it visibly,
Amen.
From John 8:42
