FAMILY OF GOD
Jesus replied, “Very truly I
tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin. Now a slave has no permanent
place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. So if the Son sets you
free, you will be free indeed.
John 8:34-36 NIV
Sin has its way of making
someone a slave of it. It's like an addiction that won't leave you alone until
you fulfill its needs. It will drag you in the places that you didn't imagine
before you will be. It will force you to do things that will hurt you at the
end of the day.
Scriptures says in Romans
6:23 that the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in
Christ Jesus our Lord. Jesus teaches us that everyone who sins is a slave of
sin. Being a slave mean a person who is the legal property of another and
is forced to obey them. In other words when you live a life of sin, you become
a legal property of sin and being forced to obey its desires.
If we sin we don't have
permanent place in the family of God, but if we give ourselves to the Lord and
become children of God; will belongs in the family of God forever. Jesus will
set us free from all unrighteousness and we will be free indeed for the rest of
our lives.
This morning, I what to
remind you to make sure that you are in the family of God. There are some
people who go to Spirit filled Churches but they don't belong in the family of
God. No all people who call themselves Christians; and attend every service in
every Sunday have given their lives to the Lord. Some go to filled Spirit Churches
because their friends or relatives go to those Churches.
You need to have a personal
relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ. You need to live a sin free life if
you want to be child of Most High God. Jesus is the only way to the Father, no
one goes to the Father except through Him. Jesus is the only one who can break
the curse of sin and give you strength to overcome sin in your life. Give a
room to Him today, and your name will be written in the book of life, the book
of those who are going to heaven.
****Morning Prayer****
Pray this prayer with me by
faith and God is going to answer your prayer....
Dear Heavenly Father, forgive
me for all my sins that I have committed before You. Lord I'm asking that You
may give me strength to overcome sin and live a life worth of my calling in
Christ Jesus. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
